We, as Jesus followers, are called to reflect God’s love in this world. We are to live lives of love, as imitators of God. We are to do everything in love and live in the unity of love with other Christ followers.
Topics: Identity in Christ,
Love
God's love for us is overwhelming! But that's not the whole story. As we receive God's love we are able to return that love to God and others.
Topics: Love,
Transformation
Our Wrath and Love Q&A with Greg and Paul was on Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Greg and Paul attempted to reconcile the violence of the Old Testament with a loving God.
Note: We're working on locating files from this Q&A to add here soon.
Topics: Interpreting OT through the lens of the Cross
God’s desire for us is that we become all that God created us to be. Life is the process in which we can resist or yield to God’s desire for us. When we yield we sense God’s burning love as warm and liberating. When we resist we experience God’s burning love as pain and wrath.
Topics: Love,
Pain & Suffering
God’s love is victorious! But perhaps not in the way that you’d expect. We often associate victory with our ability to control or defeat others but God’s victory encourages our freedom rather than squelches it. (We love discovering art that connects us to God in unique ways. Thank you to Dale Johnson for incorporating his art into this weekend's sermon.)
Topics: Love,
Power,
Sacrifice
The love of God expressed in Christ on the cross shows the radical lengths God is willing to go to restore us. This healing of our relationship with God takes the form of a covenant, not a contract.
Topics: Covenant,
Love,
Sacrifice
The love of God expressed in Christ on the cross was “foolishness to the Gentiles” and “a stumbling block to the Jews”. God’s love is scandalous to us all in different ways.
Topics: Love,
Power
It is impossible to fully grasp God's love because it is infinite! The best we can do is humbly recognize our limitations in this way and give ourselves over to the overwhelming love that God extends to us.
Topics: Love,
Sacrifice
In the story of the Prodigal Son, the son leaves home and experiences intensely that something is missing. Eventually he comes to his senses and goes home to his father. Greg connected this desire that the son felt to the German word sehnsucht which is a powerful form of longing that we all feel at times in our lives.
Topics: Forgiveness,
Repentance,
Salvation
For our Good Friday service, Greg looked at the life and death of Jesus using three different Marys. Mary the mother of Jesus, Mary of Bethany and Mary Magdalene.
Topics: Hope,
Resurrection,
Role of Women
