Sanctification
2025 | Sanctification
After we’ve come to faith in Christ, God leaves us in this world for a very clear purpose: His own glory. But how are we to glorify God for the rest of our lives? The Bible reveals that God has laid before every Christian two infinite journeys which we are to travel every day: the internal journey of growth into Christlike maturity, and the external journey of worldwide evangelism and missions. These sessions on sanctification are a road map for the internal journey, laying out how we are to grow.

The Doctrine of Scripture
2024 | God’s Good Design
How can Christian men and women live faithfully in a world confused over sexuality and gender? Surely we must be reminded of what Scripture teaches. Yet as God’s design for sexuality is being suppressed and denied in the modern world, we need to hear it articulated in a fresh and accessible way. God’s Good Design presents the historic, biblical view of sexuality in a manner that is appealing even to those who have been conditioned to believe it is scary or oppressive.
