Talk One - Taking God at His Word: Biblical Authority
This session will provide an overview of the doctrine of Scripture, with emphasis on how the Bible reflects the attributes of the God who inspired it. The Bible alone offers a sure word from the Lord in an age when rival worldviews compete for our attention and our loyalty.
Talk Two - Reading God's Word Faithfully: Biblical Literacy
This session will make the case that we should read the Bible regularly, deeply, comprehensively, prayerfully, and practically--for God's glory and our good. The Bible alone helps us cut through the confusion and understand how our own unique stories only make sense in light of the Story of Stories.
