Who Is My Neighbor?

Our theological, ideological, and political differences are becoming a primary source of brokenness in the world and if we are serious about bringing healing and hope into this particular time and place we have to address these issues head-on. The question is, How do we do that? As part of his message, Brian referred to the summary document created after the church-wide conversations that took place in September 2019. That document can be found at the link provided.
Diverse by Design
January 12, 2020 • Brian Gerard
In a society torn apart by theological, ideological, and political divides, the church is meant to be a reconciling presence. At the core of that ministry is the call of Jesus to build church that is diverse by design. In this message, Brian mentioned a previous sermon that details the concept of bonded and centered communities and why it is so important to First Christian Church of Louisville. You can find that sermon at the link provided.
Relationships Matter

The first step in crossing the theological, ideological, and political divides that we face is to follow the example of Jesus and forming relationships with other people - especially those who are not like us. As part of his sermon, Brian mentioned the book, "I Think You're Wrong (But I'm Listening)" and the podcast "Pantsuit Politics". You can find both at the links provided.
