The Church

Matthew 7:24-27
Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise,

James 1:23-24
For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like.

Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.

Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse [because] it is built on bedrock.
But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, [it will] collapse with a mighty crash.”

James 1:6
And I am certain that [God], who [began] the good work within you, will [continue] his work until it is finally [finished] on the day when Christ Jesus returns.


FOR THE LIFE OF THE WORLD
This series explores the challenge of being “in the world, but not of it.” As Christians, we hear that fairly often, but what does it really mean? This film series, FOR THE LIFE OF THE WORLD, digs into that question: it’s an exploration of Faith and Culture—of how we live as “salt and light” in an imperfect world. The series is thought-provoking, beautiful, and a lot of fun—unlike anything you’ve seen before.

“Oikonomia” is a Greek word that means “God’s Economy of All Things.” Over seven weeks, FOR THE LIFE OF THE WORLD discusses this concept and explores God’s plan for his creation, the world, and us.

The videos in this series, created and produced by Acton Institute, will be played in your Small Group, along with a series of discussions. We hope you enjoy this series in our Sunday Services and in your Small Group. Join a Small Group today to join in the conversation!
