Have you ever thought about how God’s Word has 40 different authors but each book is connected to the others? As Christians, we know this is the work of the Holy Spirit threading the Word of God together. We have been traveling through the Bible in our Common Thread series the last few weeks. This week we take a look …
January 26, 2019 | The Common Thread, Part 3
We hope you’ve been enjoying our series The Common Thread. Have you ever thought how intricately the Bible is woven together? We shouldn’t be surprised that God has connected His entire Word from Genesis to Revelation but most of us have never thought about it. What is that common thread? It’s found in Genesis 12.

January 12, 2019 | The Common Thread, Part 1
Did you know the Bible has a theme from end to end? It’s a continual story starting from Genesis to Revelation. Sometimes we look at it as a self-help book, picking what we want for ourselves and throwing out what we don’t need. But there is a covenantal theme that binds all the stories of the Bible together.

A common mistake some people make about Israel becoming a nation 70 years ago is that it was founded from guilt: that because during World War II, the world remained silent while Jewish people were systematically murdered, the nations wanted to make up for their silence and gave them the land. This week Chris will explain how that is simply …

This year Israel is celebrating 70 years of Independence. On May 14, 1948 a group of men and women in Tel Aviv made a declaration of Independence and the state of Israel was reborn!
