Power is Powerful

Teacher: Pastor Chris Alford
Series: Sunday Teaching
Passage: Mark 10:35-45
Service Type: Season after Pentecost

Power is powerful, and the world is intoxicated with it. And for no other reason than that, we must be terribly careful how we handle it. Turns out the struggle for power and misunderstanding the nature of God's Kingdom is something that's been going on since Jesus' time on earth. Join us as we continue our series on what it means to be a Christian dissident. Along the way, Pastor Chris also gave some examples of turning points in recent Christian history when believers were tempted to use the tactics and tools of the world to try and advance the Kingdom.

Topics: Christian dissident, Critical theory, mainline denominations, mega church, power, proving the Bible, seeker church, tools and techniques of the world
« Soft Totalitarianism and Christian Dissidents You Are Not Alone, Christian Dissident »
