THE DANIEL CODE - LIVING OUT TRUTH IN A CULTURE THAT IS LOSING ITS WAY


THE DANIEL CODE

 

Our culture brings new challenges to our Christian faith with each passing day. How should we live out our faith? Daniel was a young man who grew up rooted in a Judeo culture of traditional values. One day, he unexpectedly found himself in a culture that was foreign to everything he had known. His value system, his truth claims, his moral compass — all were challenged repeatedly at every turn. Not unlike our society today!

From the pages of Scripture, learn from Daniel how to exist in our culture while also engaging and thriving in it as well!

THE FEAR FACTOR


THE FEAR FACTOR

 

Throughout the book of Acts, it is said of the early church that they "turned their world upside down" (Acts 17:6) and that they were being "multiplied." They experienced this spiritual dynamic without all the modern tools we enjoy today in translating the gospel to our world. They had no television, internet, CDs, DVDs, radio or Twitter accounts. The early church had no church planting techniques and no one was doing marketing surveys for them. But they were being multiplied... and we are not! The early church had something that somewhere along the way we have lost. And, if we can reclaim it, we, too, can rediscover the dynamic of first century Christianity. The secret lies in... THE FEAR FACTOR.

ANTOLOGY


ANTOLOGY

 

What on earth is "antology" and what does it have to do with the issue of retirement? Solomon addressed this subject in a unique way when he challenged us to go to the ant... consider her ways and be wise. (Proverbs 6:6-8). The ant "stores" her provisions in the summer and "gathers" her provisions in harvest for a very important reason. Winter is coming! King Solomon reminds us that much can be learned from studying the ant as it particularly applies to our own winter season of life.

THE QUESTION FOR OUR TIME: WHO DO YOU SAY THAT I AM?


THE QUESTION FOR OUR TIME: WHO DO YOU SAY THAT I AM?

 

It seems that every epoch of Christian church history has a question from the lips our Lord. The days of the 21st Century are days of unbelievable challenge and opportunity. But Christ has a question for His church today. It is the issue all Christians must face for the next generation. It is the question of Matthew 16:15 - "Who do you say that I am?" Perhaps no other single topic will be under attack during our remaining days of ministry as much as the issue of the exclusivity of the gospel. When so many have gone the way of pluralism and inclusivism, God is asking today, "Who do you say that I am?"

RECOJAMOS LA RED


Recojamos La Red

“Recoger la red” era una expresión común en el mundo galileo del primer siglo. Para los que se ganaban el sustento como pescadores en las orillas del mar de Galilea significaba la culminación de una expedición de pesca, la cosecha, por así decirlo. Jesús pasó la mayor parte de su ministerio terrenal junto a este mar. Allí llamó a sus seguidores a ser “Pescadores de hombres”.
