Sermon Clip: Hijabs At The Gym
In the last message of Mixed Signals, we take a look at Islam and how Kingdom people should be responding to the growing worldwide Islamic movement. We explore the growing disparity between the life Jesus led and calls us into and the normal worldly response to those who are different or potentially threaten our way of life.
In this clip from the sermon, Greg introduces the topic by sharing a story from his personal life.

Past Sermon Series: Crap Happens
Why God, why? This may be the most repeated prayer in history. Most people have said it at one point or another, if only under their breath. Why sickness? Why suffering?

Responding to Bullying
Robert Martin over at Abnormal Anabaptist posted this video on The Bullying Experiment.
