Pandemics, political unrest, persecution, racial and ethnic tensions, and an immoral and ungodly society are nothing new for Christians.

One Day Micro-Course: Christian Liberty in 2020

Pastor Mike Hixson
6:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
Monday, October 12

Cost: Free

Course Description

In Ephesians 4:3, we are told “to make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.” For many of us, the year 2020 has been a great challenge to that command. Join us for one evening as we dive into the theology, philosophy, and practice of love in Christian liberty when we interact with Christians who view today’s issues differently from us.
