Paul the Apostle
Phil Jayne, Room 207
Has anything changed in 2000 years? Americans live in a culture that places high emphasis on entertainment, achievement and self. It's increasingly difficult for Scriptural truth to cut through the noise and sink into our hearts. But when we stop and study Scripture, the culture we live in faces the same problems as the early church. Using the life of Paul, we will chart how followers of Christ can stand up to cultural "norms" and stand firm in Christ. Study topics include: Culture and faith in conflict, Not good enough? Keep the Faith, and A picture of your life.
