This week in our Got Questions series we take a look at the similarities and differences between the the three main branches of Christianity: Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant. While we do have our differences, we can all agree on the essential beliefs of historic Christianity. Join us as we examine these ideas.

Today we start our "Got Questions" series. We've been collecting your questions for a month, and we're ready to jump in! We have some challenging things coming up - y'all ask great questions! First, we'll cover some general points and principles related to the series - well, more than that - general points and principles related to all of life! And we'll look at philosophies of how best to teach the Bible. It should be fun!

We think of the resurrection of Jesus as something that happened in the past, but there is more to it. We live our lives in three different realities - past, present, and future. But from God's perspective, the resurrection is not just in the the past, it's anchored in eternity, flowing over into past, present, and future, where the power that raised Christ from the dead is able to transform our entire life. Join us as we explore this amazing concept.

We all have certain expectations when it comes to God, and most those expectations are never met the way we planned or imagined. Jesus is the unexpected King that comes to not do our will but set the tone for what is his eternal plan. So then a question must be asked, what does God expect of us? and how can we prepare ourselves for our King and Lord today? Join us as Kevin Adrians helps us work through these questions.

Today we tackle Paul's defense before the Roman governor Festus and the Jewish king, Agrippa II. Along the way we consider some principles that relate to our political system here in the U.S. (it's an election year, after all). We also see what we as Christians have in common with beasts of burden. There is a definite point to our discussion of goads!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
In Acts 24, Paul is brought before Felix, the Roman governor, to face charges by the Jewish religious leaders. Nothing is resolved, but Felix is intrigued, and meets with Paul on a continuing basis, but he may have had ulterior motives. Join us to get the story!

We're back in the book of Acts today, covering chapter 23, where Paul makes his defense before the Jewish religious leaders. Almost the first thing that happens is Paul getting punched in the face. Then a company of almost 500 Roman soldiers escorted him out of town. Paul has been chased out of several cities, but never with a military escort. Join us to see how it all plays out.

We have a special treat today - our guest speaker is Bob Osborne, Director of Church Health for the EFCA West - our church association. Bob challenges us to make a personal commitment in our faith-walk - and to stick to it! (That's the hard part.) You'll be challenged, but also encouraged by this message.

Sometimes we see people change. Often we try to change, trying to become a better person or to overcome some behavior we don't like. But it's not often that we see someone's life completely change. Who we are is usually in place by the time we hit twenty. But sometimes we do see radical change in someone's life. That is true in the life of Paul the Apostle. In Acts 22 he explains how that happened. Join us for the story.
