The Center of the Ride11/21/10

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Disciplines, Identity in Christ, Joy, Transformation, Peace, Presence of God
  • A central aspect of living as a Christian is lining up our life with the revealed Word of God. The battlefield of our living is actually waged in our soul, our mind.

The Lost Party06/20/10

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Joy, Love
  • In the parables of the lost sheep, the lost son, and the lost coin, it becomes clear that it is we who are lost and God who seeks to find us. Those in the position of danger are the ones who presume upon their relationships with God.

Communion in the Wilderness01/31/10

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Communion, Joy, Pain & Suffering
  • At the Passover meal just before Jesus was killed he instituted the practice of communion. When we take communion, we do so in the time between the initial experience of our faith and the final fulfillment of our unity with God and each other. This space “in-between” is like the wilderness the Jews experienced after leaving Egypt but before entering the promised land.

Embracing the Pain06/21/09

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Joy, Pain & Suffering, Transformation
  • None of us like pain. In fact, much in our world today helps us to avoid it. Scripture promises that as we follow Christ we will suffer and endure pain but that it is not without a purpose. As we persevere, we experience growth and joy and become more like Christ.

Ravens and Wildflowers06/08/08

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Fear, Joy, Peace
  • As a society, we’re extremely worried. Concern about countless issues pervades our lives: our relationships, our kids, terror attacks, global warming, pandemics, the economy, living the American Dream – if we’re not careful, this worry can consume us. Jesus provides us with the Kingdom alternative to worrying, and it’s surprisingly related to birds and flowers.

The Holistic Kingdom01/14/07

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Joy, Covenant, Imagination
  • Jesus' ministry did not just focus on one aspect of human existence (ie. the need for forgiveness). It was holistic, ministering also to the physical, social and relational needs of the people he came in contact with. As followers of Christ, we are also called to live a life that reflects this love.

Your Thoughts, Your Destiny10/23/05

  • Speaker – Greg Boyd
     
  • Topics – Hope, Joy, Transformation
  • Mary's song praises God because He scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. God's is incredibly concerned about how we think because what we do is a product of how we think. Inmost thoughts steer all of life. Our quality of life is determined by our thought lives.
