The Gospel will eventually renew the whole world and all of creation. This is the third part of the definition of the Gospel that Jason laid out for us a few weeks ago. In this teaching we will look at the issue of Infant Mortality in Memphis and determine if the Gospel has a response to it.

After Stephen's murder, the church scattered. Satan thought a major victory had been won, but God had other plans. As the church was scattered, ordinary men and women shared about Jesus. What does it mean for you and I to be missionaries today? What does it mean for us as a church?

Abraham was a man just like you and me. He believed that God would do what He said He would do. In this message we look at the life of faith, as evidenced by Abraham's story.

Why did God choose Noah? Why did God bring about a destructive flood? Was the flood local or global? Should this really be children's book material? Were the people really that bad? Hear about the sheer grace of God who saves and uses us, not because we are good guys, but because he is gracious, kind and long suffering.

Evolution? Creationism? Chance? Perennial issues when we read Genesis 1. How do we engage is these conversations without missing the point? Genesis is the beginning of all things. Chapter 1 makes that very clear, as God is the subject and everything else is the verb. Hear a comparison of God's work in creation and his wonderful work in us through Jesus, making us a new creation. Oh, and the scientists that Jason couldn't remember is Alcmaeon of Croton. He lived 2,200 years before Eustachi.

Christmas was meant to change the world! How does our current consumer-driven holiday experience compare with the first Christmas story? We invite you to join with us as we seek to experience Christmas in a new way this year.

We all have a deep and enduring hunger within us. We all want to grow spiritually, emotionally and relationally. Jesus is God's provision for us like the manna in the desert was for Israel. Jesus tells us that he is the way out of spiritual malnutrition and that if we take him into ourselves we will live forever.

What does God think of me? We all have assumptions about that question. The religious professionals who confronted Jesus did too. We take a look at Jesus' response, which reveals God's desire to reconcile us to himself, like the father in the parable of the prodigal son. We also emphasize how God's heart continues to remain open to us through the great love and harsh death of Jesus.
