Stay up to date!
From Sunday:
We have been studying and considering the world Jesus re-imagined in his teachings and specifically the world created by his parables.  We have been
trying to answer the question, what is the Kingdom of God like? These are the
same teachings that taught the first century hearers of the parables how to live
in the re-imagined world that Jesus called the Kingdom of God. 
Ask yourselves this, Are we living in the Kingdom?  Can we live the way Jesus taught? We continue that study today with the Parable of the Unforgiving Slave.

En Agape',
Rev. Michael
