Moral Issues in the Election

This reflection from the 2010 elections continues to be relevant for this year.

Christianity is a worldview

First aired in Septermber, 2009, this archive BreakPoint commentary summarizes the Church’s great proposal to a dying age.

Today I want to tell you about a major new effort to renew the Church and transform the culture.

What is the vision of the Church? That was the sermon topic one Sunday a dozen years ago or so when I visited a friend’s church. But as I listened, I found my mind wandering.
