Hour 1: Christmas and Conviction
We cherish Christmas---not just for gifts and gatherings, but for the miracle of God's love. Matt Mikalatos will join us to share some devotions inspired by Saint Nicholas's faith, compassion, and Christ-centered vision. Then, Todd Nettleton will give us some very specific prayer requests from the global Persecuted Church. Get ready to lengthen your prayer list.
Hour 2: Gay Celibacy?
Joe Dallas, nationally recognized expert on the intersection between Christianity and issues concerning the LGBT community, will join us to discuss the concept of “gay celibacy.” Why are more and more churches embracing this concept, and does it really align with what Scripture teaches? Join us for a thoughtful and biblically based conversation.
