The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists
Richard Dawkins on Arguments for God's Existence
If God Exists, Why Does He Allow Evil?
Todd kicks off the event by describing what is and is not apologetics. He emphasizes the importance of apologetics for believers not just as an intellectual pursuit, but as a way to lovingly give an account for our faith. We should be ready to give an account for the hope that is in us. (1 Peter 3:15)
How Badly Did the Early Scribes Corrupt the New Testament
Greg explores some common objections to Christianity and religion in general. Some of the topics discussed are the lack of scientific evidence for a soul, relativistic truth, religious truth, misunderstandings about faith, and the tendency to attack the believer rather than the belief.
Jesus Has a Wife and You Should Be As Committed to Her as He Is
A disciple is someone fully committed to loving and following Christ. It isn't something you simply add to your life--it transforms every aspect of your life. In order to live a life of discipleship we must love God first and love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:36-40).
"There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death." (Proverbs 14:12) God's Word is truth and it must inform our counsel to others or we lead them down the path of destruction. His word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalm 119:105). Let the words of our mouth always be filled with the truth of God.
Stewardship needs some new PR. For many, the life of a faithful steward is one of constraining budgets, emergency fund goals and coupons. What if this is short-sited? What if the evidence of faithful stewardship is not seen in your spending plan, your emergency fund and the fact you buy generic brand tortilla chips? If this is not the best evidence of faithful stewardship, then what is the best evidence? Listen and find out.
Do you know what Jesus has done for you? Have you heard and understood? God loves you not because of what you have done, but wants to give you a gift because of what you need. This may be your time to hear it. The Lion is not safe, but He is good.
Would you have missed Jesus? It's not that difficult to see why the Pharisees would have missed him because he came as a humble servant. Here in John 12, we see the humble king riding on the foal of a donkey, but one day will come on a war horse like the world has never seen. What kind of King are you looking for?
Albert Chang, a former buddist monk, shares his story of surving the atrocities and genocide in Cambodia in 1970 under the rule of the Khmer Rouge. More amazing is his story of how God rescued him from 3 years in a prison camp and the jungle. But even freedom after coming to America wasn't true freedom until he came unto a relationship with Christ. It was only in Him that he found ultimate peace and life.
Only the God that breathes and gives live, can decide to give life again. Only the God that gave us glory that we have squandered and crushed, can restore that glory again. You must be born again, and His provision for life in Christ is the only way. This message shows us how Lazarus is a "type" of Christ. What does that mean? Tune in to find out.
