Pastor Eugene goes on to give more tips and suggestions on dating and courtship in this fourth part of his Theology of Singlehood series. Among other things, he touches on the importance of identity, the proper context for physical/emotional intimacy, and how passion, vision, and mission are three essential aspects to examine as one gets to know a potential future spouse.
In this Christmas Homily, Pastor DeAnza talks about the birth story as a story of hope - a hope that seems to be swallowed up by current crises (war and the economy) - but nevertheless, a hope that continues to speak to us today.
Pastor Leah talks about living in the tension between today the time when justice will come rain down. Living in community (eating and sharing stories) is one way to live in anticipation of the life to come.
Pastor Eugene explains the strange world of lepers, Samaritans, and being "unclean" from the story in Luke 17:11-19. That world meets ours in showing us how faith is acted out, what worship looks like, and the need to remember that we are blessed while simultaneously being sent to bless others. 47:25 minutes (8.14 MB)
