    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,786 views

    Too many times, even modern believers allow the male-dominated nature of our traditions to overshadow the fact that God calls female leaders, too.

     | 11,445 views

    Probably one of the most messed up Christian concepts is that of heaven, our final destination, which is nothing like the pictures created by our church traditions!

    When anything new comes along, we struggle to know what should be preserved and what should be discarded. This struggle may seem new, but it is an age-old problem. Jesus in this discourse helps us to preserve the best of both worlds and the danger of putting new wine in old wineskins.
