Continuing our lineup of Christ-Centered Preaching from the Faculty at Mid-America, Rev. Andrew Compton, Professor of Old Testament, brings to us a message from the book of Proverbs titled “Do Not Walk in the Way With Them," a sermon about the enticement of sinners and how Christ enables us to avoid them.

No doubt we would all agree on the importance of Christ-Centered sermons: Christ and him crucified, the good news of salvation, preached through all of Scripture. Over the past many years, our professors have labored in preaching Christ and the gospel in various churches all throughout the U.S. and Canada, but even here on the campus of Mid-America during the Seminary’s time of chapel. Some of these chapel messages are being compiled into a book currently in the works, so it’s our pleasure to give you a sneak peek and showcase a couple of these sermons for you. First up is Dr. J. Mark Beach with a word from the book of Judges and the story of Samson. 

You’ll remember last week we had our Director of Enrollment, Brian Blummer, behind the mic. He joins us again this week as he interviews one of our incoming students, a former National Hockey League player turned seminary student, Mr. Michael Wall from British Columbia. Take some time to listen to Michael's journey to seminary. 

Jared sits down with Mid-America's Director of Enrollment Management, Brian Blummer, a 2011 alumnus, as they chat about Brian's years before, during, and after seminary, and how in God's providence, he brought Brian back to seminary - with the purpose of bringing others to Mid-America's campus.

In our concluding episode on Christianity and the Arts , Rev. Compton and Dr. Strange discuss music and how Christians can appreciate listening to it. 

We’re continuing our series on Christianity and the Arts today, this time talking about Movies. 

We’re starting a new series today on Christianity and the Arts. Dr. Alan Strange, Professor of Church History and Apologetics, introduces this series, beginning with Literature. 

In this episode, Director of Marketing, Jared Luttjeboer, and Old Testament Professor, Rev. Andrew Compton, talk about social media and the Christian's use of it.

In our series on human sexuality thus far, Rev. Compton, Dr. Strange, and Dr. Venema have taken us through history, through culture, and the church's reaction to human sexuality. In our concluding episode, an all-too-important subject matter is up for discussion: ministering to the sexually broken in our midst.

In part 2 of our series on Sexuality, Rev. Andrew Compton, Dr. Alan Strange, and Dr. Cornelis Venema continue their dialogue on this important topic, talking about the current climate and where the church finds itself in this conversation.
