Podcast Listen to Sermon: The Power of Prayer for Friends in Action

Tim Johnson, Executive Director of Friends in Action will share about his group’s mission of building infrastructure to support Christian missionaries and aid workers in South America, Africa, and Indonesia. Friends in Action raises over a million dollars a year and recruits hundreds of volunteers who travel to remote overlooked places to build wells, runways, roads, and houses to support the work of reaching those far from God and improving local economies. We are pleased and honored to have Tim share the mission of Friends in Action with us. You can learn more at www.fiaintl.org

August 1, 2010
Pastor Kelly Chripczuk
Luke 15:11-32

Podcast Listen to Sermon: The Parable of the Prodigal Son and Older Brother - Part 2

Books to Explore:

Atticus, by Ron Hansen - an insightful retelling of the parable that reads like a murder-mystery novel - a great idea for a beach read this summer.

The Prodigal God:Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith, by Tim Keller - a good exploration aimed at long-time Christians who think they’ve got it figured out.

The Return of the Prodigal Son, by Henri Nouwen - a very reflective, in depth look at the characters in the Parable based on Nouwen’s reflections on Rembrandt’s paintings and life.

Pastor Jon Hand

Podcast Listen to Sermon: Everyone Belongs

Meet the Family
We all come from a family, a tribe. Either by good example or not so good your family has shaped who you are and what you value. Most churches have a family or tribe that influences them and gives shape to their unique role within the larger Christian story. Engage is part of a family of over 300 churches in North America called the Brethren In Christ Church. Over the next four weeks we will be telling our story, introducing you to our family, and highlighting some of what makes us unique as a family of churches. Maybe by looking back into our family tree we will be compelled and inspired take on the life of Jesus today in our everyday lives.
