Why We Believe the Bible
Why do we believe what the Bible says? What sets it apart from any other holy book? Is it enough just to say, "Well, this is the book they gave me when I got baptized, so this is one I read?" We don't think so. If we are going to stake our lives on this book, then we should be making sure that our confidence in its trustworthiness is rock solid. To that end, for the next five weeks we will be putting the Bible on trial and asking it to show us why it should be believed, in hopes that the Bible wouldn't just be the book we "happen to read" because we're Christians, but that we would come to view it as the only reliable guide to life, joy and human flourishing.

God & Government: Seminars on Christian Political Engagement"

This series delves into two topics of enormous importance to disciples of Christ. In the seven weeks leading up to the November 4 election, our topic is "God & Government." We will try to understand what it looks like for a Christian to engage, intelligently and biblically, in politics and government. In the second seven weeks of the fall, we will explore "Why We Believe the Bible," in an attempt to put reason behind our faith that the Bible is the very Word of God.
