Reformation, Part 2
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008 : By Dan Miller
Today we continue focus on understanding the reasons for the Reformation by answering questions which were posed after Part 1 of this series. What is the difference between the way Roman Catholics and Protestants view salvation (justification), santification, sacraments, and Matthew 16:13-20? How do I talk with a Roman Catholic about these differences? How did the Roman Catholic church grow out of the early church to wield the level of authority that it did in the day of Martin Luther?

The Leadership Team answers your questions.
Q1 (1:31): I struggle to share my faith. I know I should and really do want to, but what are some first steps in making this hope a reality? Also, if a person never shares their faith, how would you get them to share their faith?
Q2 (10:57): Scripture teaches of the Trinity that God is three persons. It also says God is one essence. Further, Scripture teaches that God is unchanging.

Freedom, Part 3
Sunday, November 18th, 2007 : By Dan Miller
Trusting in Jesus is meant to result in your freedom. Today we continue to discuss how false teaching can instead burden us down by making us think that we must add something to our trust of Christ in order to be truly accepted by God.
Throughout this series we will try to help you understand the freedom that God offers us through Christ and the dire responsibility we have to defend this truth from those who would seek to add or take away the central and exclusive role that Jesus has is Salvation.
Today’s teaching will flow from Galatians 5:7-15.

Trusting in Jesus is meant to result in your freedom. Unfortunately, this is not the case for many Christians. Why is this? Why do some followers of Christ feel more burdened down than set free?

Today’s teaching will flow from Galatians 5:1-6.
