The Spirit Raises us from the Dead
There's lots of competing theories about death and the afterlife. But God has clearly revealed to us in His Word that death is the result of our rebellion against Him, and that because of Jesus' righteousness and the gift of the Spirit we will be raised from the dead, if we trust in Jesus.

The Shocking Alternative
Part 4. We all long for a sense of togetherness (unity), but strive to accept others (diversity), and are eager for a sense of equality. These three longings are expressions of being created in the image of a Triune God. This series, based on big ideas from CS Lewis’ book of the same name, will deal with questions about the epic nature of God and his involvement in our lives. What difference does God’s three-in-oneness make to our lives and faith? Why should we believe Jesus’ claim that he was God? Why "the incarnation?" And what about Christ’s death on the cross? Faith in the true God makes our lives integral to his epic story.

Do All Roads Lead to Life?
Matthew 7:13-14 says"...broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." One of the most common misconceptions about the world religions is that at the core of their beliefs, they are all the same. The analogy of a mountain with many roads that lead to the top, or the picture of an elephant surrounded by blind men trying to describe what they are touching, is used to explain that religion is really "ONE" but that the roads or paths to getting there are simply different. On a simplistic level, one might affirm the common spiritual desire that points people toward a spiritual reality. The pursuit of the transcendent is common in all cultures – anthropologists call it the "god-consciousness". But upon closer evaluation, one quickly sees that each religion has exclusive claims that set it apart from the other. In the midst of our pluralistic culture, one must ask: so which road does indeed lead to life? Key Passage: 1 Kings 18:16-39
