You've Got Mail!  A look at the Apostle Paul and the many letters that he wrote.  Next to Jesus, Paul is one of the most influential people in the Bible, reminding his church family over and over to remember who they are in Christ- chosen, loved, forgiven and free.  Join Pastor Linda as we open up these letters!

A minister, an atheist and a few other people walk into a bar... The minister says, "Drinking is against God's will for you!"  The atheist responds, "He forgot to tell that to Jesus..."  So begins a conversation... People have been gathering in pubs and public spaces for ages, talking about life, philosophy, faith and deep questions of meaning.  COME! Bring your questions, your curiosity, and pull up a chair.

Finally liberated by the end of South Africa's tyrannical white rule, Trevor and his mother set forth on a grand adventure, living openly and freely and embracing the opportunities won by a centuries-long struggle.
