What God Hates

God hates all that damages, deforms, and divides humanity. God longs for us to flourish in healthy communities. The seven things God hates described in Proverbs 6:16-19 contribute to breaking down the peaceful and healthy relationships in which God intends us to live. God is committed to wholeness in our relationships and thus is implacably opposed to socially destructive human failings and sins.

The Nag

An exploration of the appropriate role of prayer - persistent prayer seeking God's guidance and intentions, rather than our own wishes.

Grrr

This four-week series addresses words beginning with "gr-" that are part of our faith struggles and growth.
