Mark Sayers, in this RED church sermon, provides a timely pastoral comment about our responses to the confusion surrounding same-sex attraction, the redefining of sexuality, and marriage, in secular society. He addresses historical, theological and cultural perspectives that impact how we understand these multi-layered issues, encouraging us to maintain a high view of the scriptures, and of sexuality, as well as a high view of love and grace.
A Pregnant Pause For Easter
Mark Sayers from RED Church provides a timely message in preparation for Easter. Faith is not about living an easy life, but about being faithful in all situations. God is not absent when we cannot feel Him — painful and difficult times are often a sign of spiritual maturity because God is shaping us in His image. We are more than our desires and emotions — allow Lent (the period preceding Easter) to become a pregnant pause.
The Road Home (Part 2)
“Life is not a journey of self discovery, but a pilgrimage to the cross.”
This is the second talk introducing concepts from Mark’s new book: “The Road Trip That Changed The World.”
Part 2 provides an alternative to the life-draining ‘journey’ narrative. It is our story, the Christian story, that promises paradoxical freedom through the dying of self and the pilgrimage of Jesus towards the cross.
The Road (Part 1)
“Life is not a journey of self discovery, but a pilgrimage to the cross.”
Our next two podcasts are from the 2012 Uber conference and introduce concepts from Mark’s new book: “The Road Trip That Changed The World.”
Part 1 challenges the cultural myth that life is a journey, explaining how our world view has been shaped from a cultural perspective.
