Jesus created in the church a new kind of human community.

Jesus extended forgiveness and grace beyond one's friends to even one's enemies

Jesus originated the idea of separation of church and state. The Kingdom of God stands above all earthly kingdoms and authorities.

Jesus' definition of hypocrisy radically changed society's discussion concerning what defines a good person.

Jesus turned the idea of greatness on its head. For the first time in history, humility was seen as a worthy virtue.

We'll explore the influence Jesus has had on how we view those in the world, who at one time would have been considered disposable.

If we place our ordinary lives in God's hands, extra-ordinary things can happen

God stands with all people, even those different from and far from us.

God stands with us when we share the gospel with others by word and deed.

God provides for us in uncertain times and through other people.
