e/Gathering - The Conversation

Is it important to believe in Jesus This seems like a simple question to Christians. But then the question is, What does it mean to believe? Can I just believe that a man named Jesus live in the first century? Does it have to change my life?

Join us for this weeks conversation.

Communion?

Communion, the Lords Supper, the Eucharist so many ways of interpreting the scriptures on this meal. How often do we serve it? How do we serve it? This week we walk through this meal set aside for us by our Lord. Hope you can join us.

What is baptism? Is it really essential to our religion, or our salvation? This week Tim and I walk through this sensitive subject.

Modern man seems to think that anything you have to fear must be bad or evil. This is especially true of our father (or mother). So when we look at the Bible and it says ‘Fear God’ more that 300 times we may draw back. This week we walk through what the Bible means by ‘Fear God’ and how that impacts our lives and our faith.

How often do we think of people as gross, or deplorable? One of the most frustrating things for the religious right of Jesus day was that he treated no one as untouchable. Even his apostles seem to be confused about Jesus treatment of the unclean. This week the conversation talks this out.

What is Church?

So many Churches. So many places to go to Church. But wait, is a Church a place or a place to go to called Church. If not, what is Church? When we look into the biblical story we see something other than a building. Join is for the conversation.

Sin Is Easy?

Life can be tough. Living as someone trying to follow Christ can even tougher. In a recent conversation, Rick’s friend said something that made us take pause. “Living for Christ is hard, sin is easy.” That seems hard to grasp as Jesus says his ‘yoke is easy, and his burden is light’. This week we welcome you to a good conversation about it.

By the time you’re in the middle of broken behavior it may be too late. Jesus tells us that sin starts long before we get to the action we call ‘sin’. When you lust after someone you already committed adultery. When you call your brother stupid you already killed him. This week we look at these triggers.  Join us as we talk this out.

Satan, The Devil, Lucifer?

The topic of Satan is one of the most misunderstood. This is easy to understand because the idea of Satan, the Devil, or Lucifer progresses in the Bible. This week we talk about this deep topic.

O.E.M.

When you buy a new mower, Television, computer or other piece of equipment you will likely get the recommendations or best use plan from the manufacture to make sure everything keeps running as designed. Does that mean you have to follow those recommendations? Of course not. It is yours. Enjoy! But if you do that you now enter a new place where you can no longer blame that manufacture. Well what about your manufacture, the planets manufacture?
