As we kick off a year long study of Romans, we explore some of the reasons why Paul writes this letter, and why it is relevant for us today.
This week we are discussing how wisdom is something more than just modifying our behavior to follow the rules of life, it is centered in a relationship with God.
As we close our look at the book of Ephesians, we look at what it means to live and pray in the Spirit as the family of God.
The message focus is on what it means to be an authentic Christian community of Christ-like people in our connectedness together and care for one another.
One of the most important themes of the writing of Paul is the importance of unity in the church. This is something that we struggle with in a culture that prides itself on individualism and competition, but this morning we are reflecting on how we are unified as one body in Christ.
Solomon has come to the realization that even a man of his status, with wealth and power at his disposal, is not in control. This recognition of God’s control is something that can either cause us frustration, or bring us to a place of hope.
Solomon’s systematic pursuit for meaning under the sun takes off as we begin looking at the second chapter of Ecclesiastes.
Is a person who never hears the name of Jesus going to be punished because they have not placed faith in Him? Is Jesus really the only path to eternal life? Isn’t it arrogant for Christians to believe that they are right and everyone else is wrong? This week we are going to look at Jesus’ claim in the Gospel of John that new life only comes through him.
Perhaps the biggest question that believers, seekers, and critics of Jesus all ask relates to how a God that is good, loving, or powerful can permit the existence of suffering. Today we will examine the nature of suffering and the character of God.
