    Starting small with sport

    Starting small with sport

    If you think that all about sport is showing off great moves and do the big things, think again. You may have to slow down and be much slower than what you initially thought.

    Showing off boosts your confidence and even makes you more motivated, but if you don't come back tomorrow, it's all a fake.

    [BITESIZE] Creation: "In the beginning, God..."

    [BITESIZE] Creation: "In the beginning, God..."

    This is the first episode in our 5 part series on the theology of creation, starting where the Bible starts, "In the beginning". We will be thinking about God as the creator, what do we make of the big bang as Christians, and how old is the Earth?

    Bitesize theology is a place for a more-stretching but clear exploration of Christian Theology. Each session we dive into an aspect of a major Biblical Doctrine. It was initially intended to be watched as a video with a handout, both of which can be found in the link below, along with other Bitesize Theology talks.

    How to Start Over - Leaving Egypt Week 3 - Sunday, March 12, 2023 - Audio
    Have you ever had to start over? Starting over can be difficult. Many of us don't like how it feels to be a beginner again. But, when we leave a place that like Egypt - without freedom, unhealthy, and discouraging - we need a new beginning. In this message, Pastor Scott Savage shares how the ways we learned to survive in the past may keep us from being able to thrive in the future.

    LGBT+ and the Story of Marriage in Genesis {with Laurie Krieg}

    LGBT+ and the Story of Marriage in Genesis {with Laurie Krieg}

     What can Christian do about her same-sex attraction? How is an LGBT Christian to respond to the Bible's blueprint for marriage, in Genesis? What impact does a Christian's disgust over sexual brokenness have on those around her, who are suffering?

    I'm sitting down with my friend, Laurie Krieg, to talk about the story of Genesis 1-3 and what it shows us about God's design for marriage—especially for the LGBT+ Christian. Laurie shares how she found the determination to work through her mixed-orientation marriage suffering, by digging into the juicy steak of theology, served up in the Genesis narrative and what it points to.   
     
     Laurie is a coach/consultant, speaker, author, and podcast host whose mission is to equip Jesus-followers with a gospel-centered approach to sexuality.

    Laurie's Story

    For as long as Laurie can remember, she has loved Jesus, and she has been same sex attracted. In this episode Laurie shares her story with us:

    • Growing up in a strong Christian activist family
    • Her crisis of faith as a college-aged Christian in a same-sex relationship
    • God's call for her (a happy-to-be-single adult) to get married
    • Her crisis, as a young mom, when a memory of abuse unexpectedly surfaced
    • Her full-blown temptation to leave her impossible marriage 
    • Her fight back to intimacy in her marriage
    • How she's currently living like this story from Genesis 1-2 is true!


    LGBT+ Christian Marriage Questions

    • What should an LGBT+ person do about pain from the church, and homophobic attitudes? 
    • How does Genesis 1-2 provide a roadmap for how marriage is supposed to look?
    • How does the Bible's metaphor of marriage,  provide a "juicy steak" of a reason to stay in a difficult marriage?
    • How is marriage between a man and a woman not the ultimate picture God is offering us? And what is that ultimate picture? 
    • What sho

    How to Bear God's Image by Gender {Kelly Needham}

    How to Bear God's Image by Gender {Kelly Needham}

    What does it mean to be male or female? What does it mean to image God? And how are these two things related? 

    The answers to these questions are found on the earliest pages of our Bible, tucked into our origin story. I'm so thankful to have my friend Kelly Needham back with us to talk through some of the most weighty questions that our culture is wrestling with. Kelly brings such wisdom and clarity to the conversation.
