Staying True In A World Far From God
The world has always been far from God and even hostile toward Him. In today’s culture the distinction between the righteousness of God and the ways of the world seems increasingly more pronounced. Consequently, those who choose to follow Christ stand out. Christians need not fear standing out, but we can embrace it as an opportunity to shine the light of Christ to those around us. The Old Testament prophet Daniel shows us by his own example how we can stand strong and unashamed.
Confident In The Face Of Hard Questions
We live in a time and culture when biblical beliefs and Christian presuppositions are not always assumed to be true. There are some challenging questions out there, but we can approach these questions honestly and rationally. Examining these questions in light of Scripture gives Christians solid footing for their beliefs and helps them speak graciously and knowingly with those who question their beliefs. We don’t have to simply believe something “blindly;” we can say confidently what we believe and why we believe it.
I am so excited when we get to gather in small groups to study the Word of God.”
