Teacher: Dugan Sherbondy

Synopsis: As Genesis re-launches with their first series of the Spring Season, ABC’S Flipped, Dugan talks about sex. We live in a world surrounded by it, God has a lot to say about it, so it must be important. Dugan shares three thoughts about sex from God’s perspective which are: 1) God created us to marry, not date, 2) we spend too much time working on physical intimacy, and 3) God designed sex for a specific time, place, and person.

One of the most powerful aspects of God’s relationship with us is that He is not afraid of our ugliness. No matter what we’ve done, no matter what’s been done to us, no matter how negatively we see ourselves, God loves us just the same and wants us to surrender to Him. We do a great job at looking good, but that means all the junk inside of us can get piled up. Dugan teaches on the importance of opening up and being honest with God as the first step towards healing.

Synopsis: So often, God is seen as angry, full or wrath, or as lame. But the Bible paints a very different picture of who God really is. Dugan teaches that God is not afraid of our fun! He created fun, He loves fun, His creation shows it and Jesus lived a super radical life! God is everywhere and in everything, including our fun, which is something that is just as spiritual as prayer or hanging at church.

Teacher: Dugan Sherbondy

Synopsis: Dugan launches the weekend by teaching that God has no fear of our doubt. We all go through seasons of doubt and as we do, it’s important for us to be honest with God and remember times when we experienced God and our faith grew. Doubt can be so important because it will lead us to the truth.

Synopsis: In the final week of “Stealing Jesus”, Dugan talks about the sun, water, valentine’s day, and the shortest verse in the Bible, as he focuses on the significance of Jesus’ mission of life, which we need in our every breath and especially when life is difficult.

Teacher: Gregg Giamalva

Synopsis: In continuing our 'Stealing Jesus' series, Gregg Giamalva guest teaches about why Jesus came and poses two questions to us that are answered either yes or no. Jesus came to seek us, to save us, and to lead us. So the two questions we need to answer are: Have we been found by Jesus or not? And are we following Jesus or not?

Teacher: Eric Parks

Synopsis: As we launch in our series: “Stealing Jesus” Eric Parks guest teaches and talks about how confusing it can be sometimes to understand who Jesus is or some of the things He says. Eric walks through Jesus’ parable about the Lost Sheep and how powerful, loving, and amazing Jesus is when it comes to looking for each one of us, even if we don’t know we’re lost.

Teacher: Jen Oakes

Synopsis: For the final week of “Hall Pass” at Genesis University, we head into Art Class to learn about God as designer. Jen Oakes guest teaches about the fact that God is the artist of nature, writing, and music. And even though He is huge, He created each of us and loves us so much, no matter what situation surrounds us in life. Check out her teaching and the power of God’s words through her to you.

Teacher: Dugan Sherbondy

Synopsis: This week, as we continue in our series “Hall Pass,” Dugan takes us to English Class and talks about the power of words. Whether they’re Gods or ours, words carry tremendous power to create or destroy. Dugan examines what this power looks like and how we’re called to live with it.

Teacher: Dugan Sherbondy

Synopsis: In the second week of “Hall Pass,” Dugan talks about God as Creator in Science Class. Too often, we think of science in opposition to God, but just like a waterfall or sunset over the ocean, science is screaming God’s glory as it’s something He created and uses for His glory and in His relationship with us. Dugan teaches on everything from the science of “Entanglement” theory to the science of farts. Check it out!
