    Technology: Eliminating the Human
    2024/09/15

    The story of the Tower of Babel reminds there are things we can do that we nevertheless should not do. Using this story as a source of wisdom, we discuss how Christians might use or not use modern technology. Technology is good when it produces connection, attention, and creation, but bad when it produces isolation, distraction, and endless consumption.

  • Hype (The Rise & Fall of Nothing)

    Hype (The Rise & Fall of Nothing)
    2024/09/08
    Hype is the rise and fall of nothing, and we live in a hype culture wherein big, exaggerated promises of the next thing that is going to change everything fill our lives. But Jesus was, if anything, an anti-hype man who lived a mostly obscure life. Because life's basic-ness is beautiful, and we don't need to live high on hype.

    Politics
    2024/09/01
    Politics is such a "hot button" topic. Some Christians feel that the church should be very engaged in the political process. Some feel the church should stay out of politics altogether. Should Christians care about politics? If so, how do we do so in a God-honoring way?

  • The Age of Anxiety

    The Age of Anxiety
    2024/08/25
    One of the only things almost everyone agrees on is that we're living in the midst of a mental health crisis. And far from belittling our anxiety or outsourcing treatment of it solely to "the professionals", God understands our anxiety and wants to help. A less anxious life is the byproduct of having a mission in life greater than the self.

    Safety/Protection
    2024/08/18
    There's no question that safety and protection are at the forefront of people's minds these days. The world is sometimes dangerous and hostile, so it's easy to get consumed with staying safe. The question we must ask as Christians is, "How does God want us to live?" Or, to put it another way, "How can we live with courage in a dangerous world?"

    Everything Sucks
    2024/08/11
    Why do we feel like everything is getting worse when most things are actually getting better? In short, entitlement, and entitlement is a huge psychological, sociological, and spiritual problem because it makes us forget everything is a gift.

  • Sacrament

    Sacrament
    2024/08/04
    A sacrament is defined as a Christian rite that is believed to have been ordained by God and that is held to be a means of divine grace or to be a sign or symbol of a spiritual reality. In the catholic church there are believed to be 7 sacraments. In most evangelical protestant churches we primarily emphasize two (Baptism and Communion). What is the purpose of the sacraments and how should we approach them as Christians? These and other questions will be answered in this final sermon of our "Churchology" series.

    Quiet Time
    2024/07/29
    Faith is personal. Much like any other relationship in our life, our relationship with God grows and deepens when we spend intentional time alone paying attention to Him. Don't settle for a seat in a church on Sunday mornings.
