Worship Ministry Selection

You Lost Me by David Kinnaman

Identifying a problem is not a solution. But starting a conversation is the beginning of restoration.
In You Lost Me, the bestselling coauthor of unChristian trained his reseacher’s eye on Christians ages 18 to 29, exposing why they leave the church and rethink their faith. With this insightful and honest series, you and your small group can connect across generational lines, discuss the most pressing faith issues of our day, and begin the process of building up the next generation of Christ followers.

This series will help you understand why the next generation often sees the church as overprotective, shallow, anti-intellectual, exlusive, repressive, and intolerant of doubt. You’ll hear the voices of young people who want to be part of a community of faith but have been marginalized by the church. And you’ll discover loving, biblical ways to reconnect to them with kindness, compassion, and humility.

If you care about the future of the church, you don’t want to miss You Lost Me.

Life in Light of Eternity by Francis Chan

Every breath that we take, every moment of life is a gift from God—at any moment He could call us home or Christ could return. But do we really live like that’s true? In this session from America’s Best Hope 2013, Francis Chan challenges us to live life in light of eternity, actually living as though we believe that what the Bible says is true.

Parenting by Paul Tripp

What is your calling as a parent?

 
In the midst of folding laundry, coordinating carpool schedules, and breaking up fights, many parents get lost. Feeling pressure to do everything “right” and raise up “good” children. It’s easy to lose sight of our ultimate purpose as parents in the quest for practical tips and guaranteed formulas. 
 
In this life-giving book, Paul Tripp offers parents much more than a to-do list. Instead, he presents us with a big-picture view of God’s plan for us as parents. Outlining fourteen foundational principles centered on the gospel, he shows that we need more than the latest parenting strategy or list of techniques. Rather, we need the rescuing grace of God-grace that has the power to shape how we view everything we do as parents.
 
Freed from the burden of trying to manufacture life-change in our children’s hearts, we can embrace a grand perspective of parenting overflowing with vision, purpose, and joy.
