1 Corinthians 1 - 7 Recap
Christians and the Arts
July 26, 2009
A few weeks ago, Gabe Schmidt and Dan Julian co-wrote the weekly article about why Christians should engage the arts.

A Theology of Enchantment
July 22, 2009
One of the many reasons I love interacting with kids is their wild imaginations. Children are able to create entire worlds filled with myriad characters who defy human limitations.

Luke 15:1-2,11-32 - The Two Lost Sons

Gabe gives a great presentation on the two lost sons. Listen as we find that we can fall in both camps and are all equally in need of a savior.
1 Corinthians 7:25-40 - Being Single
July 5, 2009
Listen as Chris talks about being single and how the single life should be set on Christ just as much as the married life because there is no distinction, we are all ONE in Christ.

Romans 8:38-39
“For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord” (ESV).
