What will Our focus be?

“From a Christian worldview, morality is built into the fabric of the universe and is built into our constitution as human beings. It is an integral part of what it means to be human” 

— Scott B. Rae


What Does the Bible Teach about How to Live in Today’s World?

How should Christians live when the surrounding culture is increasingly hostile to Christian moral values? Granted, the Bible is our guide―but how can we know if we are interpreting it rightly with regard to ethical questions about wealth and poverty, marriage and divorce, birth control, abortion, euthanasia, homosexuality, ethical business practices, environmental stewardship, and dozens of other issues? And on a very practical level, how can we know God’s will in the ordinary decisions of life? 


To address questions like these we will pursue a weekend introduction to biblical moral reasoning and issue a challenging call for Young Christians to live lives of personal holiness and offers a vision of the Christian life that is full of joy and blessing through living each day in a way that is pleasing to God.
