Wednesday Bible Study

6:30 Wednesday Evenings, six week series starting May 9th

Join Chuck Colson and a panel of leaders in business, law, economics and ethics for a live interactive discussion of questions such as:

  • How did we get into this mess? (i.e., the financial crisis)
  • Is there truth or a moral law that we can all know?
  • If we know what is right, can we do it?
  • What does it mean to be human, and why does it matter?
  • How do we rebuild and apply ethics and morality in the marketplace and public life?

The scales of justice are upset when we read this parable.

Christ knows how to spin a tale that will expose the darkness in us.

SERMON SERIES

Earth bound stories with heavenly meaning…that is how one old friend of mine described a parable.

Did you know that 30% of all of Jesus recorded words to us are in the form of a parable or a parabolic saying?

Wow, I know, that is staggering isn’t it!  30%

Each week we are going to be looking at these incredible stories to make sure that we understand what he meant for us to understand.   Some of them take a little more work than others but they are all worth the effort.

Come join us…Sundays @ 10:00 am
