September 16, 2020065 - Prayer, Chronicles, and Persecution
What was an audible to our normal schedule on the Christian formation podcast looks like it will now a staple for upcoming episodes. Instead of producing two book reviews each month, we will replace one book review with a Question & Response from our church and listeners.

In this episode, we explore why Chronicles is at the end of the Old Testament in our Bible Reading Plan, why we pray aloud, and why God calls Israel to kill an entire people in the book of Judges. Join us as we ask these questions and respond together.

September 09, 2020064 - Judges: How compromise leads to demise
"Compromise Leads to Demise"… sounds a little intimidating, right? Well, the book of Judges in the Bible isn’t to be taken lightly, but is instead to be looked at as the antithesis of what it looks like to be God’s citizens here on Earth. However, there is much we can learn and apply to benefit our lives in a positive way. In this episode, we discuss the Biblical book of Judges and why we as a church should be excited to learn from its teachings during this season.

August 19, 2020061 - Fasting
As a church family, we are taking the month of August to intentionally pray and fast that the Lord would provide a building for us. Through this month, we trust that the Lord will bind us together as a community, will deepen our dependence on Him, and will answer us in some way in our search for a space to meet. Join us as we discuss the Biblical importance to fasting, how our church is fasting, and best practices while fasting.
