The Test of Good Times

Bad Deal

Bad times test our faith. But good times test our faith in a whole different way. Moses warned God’s people that the privilege they would experience in the Promised Land could be toxic to their faith if they weren’t vigilant. So as we near the end of the pandemic, what does that vigilance look like for us?

From Series: "Bad Deal"

Why are temptations so... well, tempting? Why are we so attracted to things that are bad for us? And how can we resist them? In this Lent series, we explore the nature of temptation and turn to Jesus' example to heal us. Plus, some help from Dostoyevsky's Grand Inquisitor, because what would Lent be without some 19th century Russian literature?

What lines are you afraid to cross? In the years immediately following Jesus’ resurrection, his followers had to reimagine what their religion looked like. The Holy Spirit compelled them to take the good news of resurrection and new life far beyond every border they’d ever known. The book of Acts helps us imagine the dangerous and exciting mission God is calling us to today.
