The Rev. Nick Lannon continues his class on the biblical worldview with a discussion of sex and sexuality, our bodies as a good gift from God, and the created design in which they are intended to be used.
In this final talk of the 2023 Fall Retreat, Zac Hicks looks deeply at Thomas Cranmer's service of Morning Prayer. Every day is shaped by God's Word to us: repentance of our sin, and absolution in the name of Jesus Christ.
In his third talk of the 2023 Fall Retreat, Zac Hicks takes a detailed look at Cranmer's service of Holy Communion. He examines its content and structure, showing how the Reformer centered it around God's Good News for sinners.
In his second talk at the 2023 Fall Retreat, Zac Hicks shows that justification is the filter by which we can tell what is Gospel and what isn’t. Cranmer used this filter as he translated and transposed liturgies that existed in his time in order to pack the Prayer Book with Gospel.
Zac Hicks opens the 2023 Fall Retreat with a look at Thomas Cranmer’s preface to the first prayer book and the collect for purity. The liturgy is designed to unleash the Word of God to do its work on us.
Michael Neal continues his class on the book of Leviticus with a look at what is commonly called the "burnt offering" or the "whole burnt offering," explaining why it might be better called the "ascension offering."
The Rev. Nick Lannon begins his class on the biblical worldview with a discussion of identity. The world wants you to define yourself in a host of different ways, but the Bible only offers us two identities: either dead in trespasses and sins or newly alive in Christ.
