Diabolic Double Bind, Part 1

• Greg Boyd

As spiritual beings, we are responsible for our thoughts and actions. Don’t let the world tell you who you are! We are to take captive every thought and bring it under the authority of Jesus Christ. Greg challenged the church against conforming to the lies of the world.

The Grinch who Tried to Steal the Sun

• Greg Boyd

Life teaches us that bad things DO happen to good people. Have you ever wondered what it means that “all things work together for good for those who love God”? Greg reviewed some biblical examples of how God uses bad situations to further the Kingdom of God.

Have You Had Your Shower Today?

• Greg Boyd

Some people decide NOT to become Christians because they don’t think they are good enough people. However, it is BECAUSE we are not good enough that we must rely on God’s grace toward us! Greg described the relationship between God declaring us good and our living this out.

Sovereignty in Love

• Greg Boyd

As Christians, we believe that God is all-powerful, but perhaps we don’t all agree on what true power really looks like. Greg challenged the worldly notion of power understood in terms of control.

The Glory of God and the Wonder of the Stars

• Greg Boyd

God is transcendent, all-powerful and glorious! But God is also patient, loving, and has drawn near to us. Often we emphasize one of these aspects of God and neglect the other. Greg discussed the importance of understanding both the power and love of God.

Pakistan, India, and the Rest of the World

• Greg Boyd

With the advance of technology, the world has become a more dangerous place. Nuclear weapons are finding their way into the hands of countries that previously posed little threat to the major world powers. Greg discussed what all this means for us as Christians.

Eating Jesus/Bread of Heaven

• Greg Boyd

When you take in something that you were not meant to consume you become sick. This same principle that applies physically also applies spiritually. Greg discussed the proper spiritual diet of the Christian.

Timeless Truth and Cultural Packaging

• Greg Boyd

A very important problem in the church today is understanding what in the Bible is an eternal principal and what is a culturally specific application of some principle. Greg offered three guidelines for distinguishing the timeless truths from the culturally relative applications.

Superboy Leaps in the Dark

• Greg Boyd

Knowledge without wisdom is very dangerous. Greg addressed the consequences of our exponential growth in knowledge without a corresponding growth in godly wisdom.

Smoking Worship

• Greg Boyd

Being in a relationship with God involves worship, which is the posture of the person of faith. Worshipping God involves sacrifice on our part. We give our best to God because God is fully worthy of all that we have. Greg described what it means to live a grateful life of joy before God.

testimonial-icon

"We have been podrishioners for several months. Our daughter, son-in-law and grandkids moved back to California after living in MN for 10 years. They attended Woodland Hills for about a year before they moved. Now we all go to the beach together on Thursdays, come home and have dinner together, then we watch last Sunday’s sermon together. It is a special day for our family."

– Dale and Patricia, from California
