With 24-hour news cycles, live streams and Twitter, we are exposed to more trauma and heartache today than at any other time in history. We are also better informed than we have ever been before.

As a culture, we are living in crazy times. We live with the world at our fingertips. Never before have we been more informed, engaged and connected. But with conflict over the pandemic to celebrity scandals to racial injustice, never before have we been more confused, angry and divided. What in the world is going on? In our new four-week series, we will explore topics — like cancel culture, polarizing views and mob mentality — through the lens of what Jesus would have to say about them.

Love Has a Name // Love Extravagantly - Adam Weber

September 08, 2020 00:00 - 25 minutes - 17.8 MB

Now more than ever, love seems to be absent from our attitudes, words, and actions. We say we love others, but really we don’t. Instead, we’re quick to shake our fists at drivers, judge the stranger who looks strange, and trash the person online who thinks differently than we do. Instead of loving, we hurt, belittle, and overlook people. Yet Jesus says that loving others (& God) is the most important thing. How do we do this? Join Adam for a three-week series as look at what real love looks...
