Pentecost

Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019

In this sermon, the so-called "Kantian wall" is acknowledged as a support rather than a threat to Christianity. There is no human way to know God except through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit has a very special role to play.

When Unity Becomes Toxic

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 9, 2019

The stories of the Tower of Babel and Pentecost teach us to: 1. Guard against prideful uniformity. 2. Cherish diversity as God's gift, and 3. Look to Christ as the source of our unity
