Sly Like a Fox
We often see church as a place to receive, to consume spiritual nourishment. But in a very strange parable, Jesus challenges us to move beyond consuming to contributing. He challenges us to use every resource we have at our disposal to bring about God's way here around us.
From Series: "You Had to Be There"
The way Jesus taught attracted every kind of person, from the ultra-religious to the irreligious. What was it about his teaching? We miss how provocative his parables were because we're not first century Galilean peasants. In this series, we ask what it would be like if Jesus came today. What would his stories sound like? Just how good is this good news? Trust us... you had to be there.

Amos pictures God as a lion, roaring God’s judgment from Mt. Zion. We don’t like to think of God as a judge. But the biblical picture of God as judge is founded in God’s love as our Father in Heaven. We can hear God’s judgment as words as a firm love calling us to be whole.
