Transforming the Mind in the Service of God: A Case for Theological Education

Presidential Inauguration

Romans 12: 2

We are living in an exceptional historical moment, at least for Protestant Christianity, an “axial” moment. Theological schools are right in the middle of this axial moment, because the church is right in the middle of this moment. Most, if not all, of the issues that challenge the church also challenge the seminary. Listen to the sermon. Read the sermon in PDF.

What’s Your Dream?

Genesis 31:55-32:12

This sermon tells the story of Jacob’s struggles as he returns from his father-in-law Laban’s home, where he had sojourned for twenty years, to the land of his birth. The story shows how God fulfills the dream he gave to Jacob many years before. The idea presented is that although we often put aside the dream God gives us, God renews it in our lives and it is always much bigger than we’d imagined. Listen to the sermon. Read the sermon in pdf.
