Can We have a Conversation?

This weekend at ACF, I begin a four week teaching series that I hope you will participate in whether you attend ACF or even if you read this blog from somewhere else in the world.

The series is called Conversation Staters. My goal in the series is literally to begin conversations between people who fall on all sides of the issues I’m addressing. And more importantly, I want to start conversations between people and God.

Here are the topics I’ll be addressing:

April 25/26–The Question of Suffering and Sacrifice . How do we, as believers, respond to suffering of other people around the world? Is the poverty in a third world country on the other side of the globe our responsibility? And, how should we respond to persecution of Christian around the world?
May 2/3–The Question of Same Sex Orientation .  Is there a more polarizing question in culture and in the church today? Have scientists and theologians finally agreed that God creates people gay? Is homosexuality still considered a sin? How can someone be sinning if they’re born that way? How do we respond to gay believers?
May 9/10–The Question of Parenting . Does the way we parent today align with God’s design for parenting? Are the goals we have for our kids consistent with God’s plans for them? Are the values we’re teaching them and modeling for them consistent with God’s Word?
May 16/17–The Question of Careers and Callings . Is the “go to school, find a career path and work till you retire” plan really a good one? How do you know if you’re called, and to what? Does God have other plans for us than just pursuing our careers and then retiring.

As you can see, this is going to be a spicy series.

I hope you’ll participate by either attending ACF or watching the messages here each week. I’ll post a series of discussion questions here each week with the video to help you get those conversations going.

See you next week!
