Contributed by David Owens on Mar 6, 2023

In this first sermon in the series on the Gospel of Mark, we want to answer the questions: who was Mark and why is he an unlikely author of a Gospel.

The Gospel Of John: An Introduction Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021

Arguably with no other book, is there a larger disconnect between academic, scholarly understanding, and the way the church reads it. The intro is designed to bridge part of that gap, and explain my own approach to John.

The Gospel Changes Lives

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 24, 2023
