The goal is to assist us as we, like Mary and the disciples, seek to understand what happened and is happening to ...read more

    Being Renewed (Graduation Sunday) Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Jun 5, 2021
     | 2,105 views

    Main: If you’re looking for snapshots of well-adjusted and happy parent-child relationships from the ancient world, the Bible probably shouldn’t be on your short list of sources. Consider even Jesus’ family, for example. The New Testament preserves evidence suggesting that Jesus’ relationship with ...read more
