Enjoy this scholarly presentation by Eric Seibert as he helps us figure out how to understand and "handle" some of the ugliest parts of the Bible - where God appears to be the origin of apparent evil.

Enjoy this powerful teaching by CrossWalker Rev. Dr. Angela Barker-Jackson.

In the conclusion of this series, we look at what living the faith looks like in one frame. We are invited to follow Jesus, whereby saying yes means we will actually try to follow Jesus in order to experience the life and faith he enjoyed. This involves stretching our minds (lifelong learning), kneeling in service to others, standing for grace and justice, communing with God via personal and corporate spiritual disciplines, and connecting with each other in genuine, compassionate community. This teaching offers a lot of practical tips on how to pull this off.

This teaching is all about the components of being connected to community and its' benefits, filled with lots of stories from CrossWalkers.

Jesus modeled and taught "life in God" - the epitome of faith. A key component of his practice was standing with and for grace in his time. What did he do? What did he instruct? What will we do in our time?

Want a faith that is vibrant like Jesus'? Try modeling your life and faith after his. This week, we talk about kneeling in service to others, taking time to think about motivations and what to do when serving no longer produces joy.

If you desire a faith that enhances your life by bringing everything together and also brings more shalom into the world, lifeline learning is required. This teaching offers a range of biblical stories offering insights on the learning process so that we might have a clue how to do it!
