Ever hear someone saying they had a “Damascus Road Experience?” In this study, we’ll look at the prototype and glean lessons to apply to today.

“Birds of a feather….” There’s comfort in hanging out with folks that are like us. Our study today explores what happens when that dynamic makes its way into the church.

“Keeping a low profile.” Know any Christians that navigate a hostile society with this strategy? What’s the silver lining of being called out? We’ll look at that question today.

“The young are more vulnerable than the mature.” True in many situations perhaps, but is it true amongst churches? We’ll continue our exploration of a God-centered church in this study.

Ever consider how easy it is to unconsciously look forward to being “entertained” when we go to church? Our study today will use Acts 6 to look at a rightly functioning church.
Don't Try to Stop God, Part 2
At times, it feels like “things” just keep getting worse! Easy to fall into this thinking, isn’t it? Does that thinking survive recalling an unchanging, all-powerful God? We’ll explore this question today.
Don't Try to Stop God, Part 1
What happens when a church goes up against storm-like opposition? Is there a way to prepare for this that increases the likelihood of a positive outcome? We’re heading that direction in our study today.
