This week in GracePointe 201 we’re exploring the Jesus of history and the Christ of faith—a framework that helps us hold both the grounded, historical reality of Jesus as a person of the past, and the living, abiding experience of Jesus for so many today. For many Christians Jesus is the great exception--somehow able to be like us but infinitely better than us. This Jesus is to be worshipped, but we all know deep down he can not be truly imitated or followed. What if there is another way to see Jesus, not as the exception, but as the rule? Wh...

The process is not just one of letting go and leaving behind, however. We are also embracing new values and understandings. In this new summer series, “UnLearning,” we will explore many of the doctrines and beliefs we have jettisoned, and ask “what next?” This Sunday Josh will begin with an introduction that will set the direction for the series, so you don’...

Gracepointe 101: The Bible | April 28, 2018
A critique often leveled against progressive/liberal Christians is that we don't hold a "high" view of the Bible. Stan makes the case here that, for many of us, it's quite the opposite. Approaching the Bible with a better perspective can release beauty and depth that perhaps was absent for us before (while lessening the potential for wielding scripture as a weapon).) This is week three of our "Gracepointe 101" series, exploring what we talk about when we talk about the Bible. This message was recorded as part of our weekly gathering on April 28, 2018.
