The Gospel of John is all about the unmatchable greatness of Jesus Christ. We will learn much about the person and works of Jesus. Importantly, we will also learn much about how to engage the lost world around us by examining Jesus’ interaction with the world. Pray for God to change you through this study and immerse yourself in the Gospel of John!
Theologian and philosopher, Francis Schaeffer, famously asked “How Should We Then Live?” Schaeffer was concerned with the moral decline in the western culture. Samuel is a man who can teach us how we ought to live in light of God’s truth. Samuel lived in an age summarized by the phrase: “everyone does what is right in their own eyes.” Samuel was a man set aside from birth to serve God. Samuel shows us what a life dedicated to God’s glory looks like. Tune into this series to learn the answer to “How Should We Then Live?”

On January 20 we studied THE GOSPEL AND RACE and had three goals for the evening: God would be glorified, that we would have “evangelistic knowledge,” and we would have unity in diversity. Listen now to the special Rooted service. The discussion involved social issues, cultures and biblical affirmations.
The Minor Prophets, first used by Augustine, were giant arrows pointing to the Lord Jesus Christ. If you read through the minor prophets a great Christology emerges. The hope of restoration from all the injustice in the land and the false teaching is always from Jesus Christ.
