Culture of Honor: Washing Feet

Image
Jay Seidler continues our series on having a culture of honor. A culture of honor is more than just having respect for each other, but it's elevating each other above ourselves. Honor is not zero-sum, it calls out the gold in people, and it protects relationships in the process.

The Invaluable Bible

Image
Great Lakes Chi Alpha Director Steve Brannan speaks on the value of the Bible. The Bible is bread for the soul, weaponry for the spirit realm, and a map for life. Most importantly, it tells us the story of Jesus from beginning to end.

Culture of Honor: Women

Image
Heather Erickson takes a deeper dive into a "Culture of Honor" by taking a look at the biblical role of women. The role of women in the world wasn't meant to be a place of submission but one of mutuality and equality. Women were meant to reign and fashioned so by God from the beginning. Jesus through the redemptive gospel is restoring their place.

Culture of Honor: Biblical Honor

Andy Erickson kicks off our end-of-the-semester series on a Culture of Honor. We value honor because our heavenly Father values honor. Therefore, we must commit ourselves to developing a culture of honor.

Getting Out of the Boat

Image
Missionary Glen Smith challenges our thinking about a comfortable life in Jesus. Fear is what keeps us from fulfilling the potential that God has planned for our life. The end of our ability is the beginning of God's power, and His power is often in the middle of the storm, not in the boat.We must learn that the glory of God is found in our simplest steps of obedience.

#TooJuicy

Image
It's #TooJuicy! Andy and Heather Erickson share together a fresh perspective on healthy, godly relationships: How does our relationship effect the other person's relationship with the Lord or with others? It's not always about defining what's "not okay"; sometimes we need to know what's "okay" to do when it comes to relationships.

The ACTions of the Apostles: Introduction

Heather Erickson begins our series on Acts by giving an introduction to the book. The author, Luke, had two main goals: document the spread of the gospel through the Roman empire and put on full display the central role of the Holy Spirit in empowering the Church. He is still spreading the gospel, and He is still empowering you, the Church.
