Off Stage with Greg and RD

Welcome back to our "Jesus & Series.” Today, we're diving into the concept of Justice, exploring its evolution from biblical times to the modern era. As we navigate this topic, we'll examine how scripture informs our understanding of justice, contrasting it with contemporary secular perspectives. Our goal is to unpack how God cares deeply about justice and mandates His people to actively pursue it, yet how these divine expectations might differ from current societal interpretations. This episode aims to challenge and inspire, fostering a thoughtful dialogue on fulfilling God's call for justice in a complex world.

Welcome back to our "Jesus & Series.” Today, we're focusing on LGBT issues, exploring how scripture can guide our understanding and discussions. In a world where rhetoric around sexuality is often polarized and charged, we aim to approach this conversation with the nuance and grace required when dealing with issues that affect real people and their lives. Our hope for this episode is to both challenge and encourage you, as we seek to discern God’s will for human sexuality and flourishing.

How can Scripture guide our understanding, particularly in light of the complex and often polarized nature of this conversation? Our hope for this episode is that you will be both challenged and encouraged as we seek to align our lives with God’s will in this area.

In this episode of Off Stage, part of our "Jesus &" series, we dive into the complex relationship between faith and politics. Greg and R.D. explore the tension between the transient nature of worldly nations and the eternal Kingdom of God. While our ultimate hope lies in the Kingdom, we discuss the biblical call for Christians to remain engaged in the political sphere. With thoughtful insights, we consider how believers can navigate the political landscape while keeping their eyes fixed on the greater reality of God's rule, and glory.

At Fellowship Church, we’re beginning a series called “Jesus &”. Our hope for the series is to engage the pressing issues in our culture with the truths we find in Scripture. It is not something we approach lightly; we’ve prayed and will pray as we embrace these difficult conversations where there are so many viewpoints and heightened tensions (even within our own church). In this episode of Off Stage, Greg and R.D. discuss the series and specifically address the deeper heart behind the series. Why do we need this now? What might God have for us in confronting rather than ignoring the challenging moments?

What music we enjoy forms us. But what about the wealth of songs that are sung in churches that come from churches we disagree with over theological or philosophical issues? Should we still sing those songs? Today, Greg and RD discuss this topic: how should we, as Christians, think about the songs we sing? Or even the books we read, the movies we watch, etc?

Greg and RD Reference The Ressurection of the Son of God by N.T. Wright.

Today, we are reading the book of Ephesians, which is a continuation of our Bible Study Series; what does the book of Ephesians have to say to us in our modern culture: from the cosmic to the intimately personal details of your life, God has sovereignly revealed himself to you that you might understand what “the praise of his glorious grace” means, and Greg and R.D. are talking about that and so much more.
