As Christians,we are called to love everyone. In this talk, we will dive into some essential questions about Love. What does it mean to love as a Christian? How do we love as a church? How can we be a church that encourages and equips those around us, especially women and minorities in leadership roles? How do we represent God through our love and how does he love us?
Join us for a Live discussion and follow-up of Mike’s message as we dissect more about what it means to love as Christians and how that extends to our communities.
The Padlet is to allow everyone, whether or not they could attend the live discussion, to continue the follow-up discussion from each of Mike’s talks.

In our second talk, we will look at the fruit we produce. Is it healthy or is it rotten and needs to be thrown into the fire? What are we doing to ensure we are producing healthy fruit? How does this translate to others in the church such as women? How is the church producing and equipping women leaders? Jenn Haddox joins us as she describes her experiences, obstacles, and journey as a leader in the church.

Noon – Mike’s third and final message and mission worker videos
With our final talk, we take a look at our current culture and the church’s role. In what ways do we distort the Gospel? Are we sharing and preaching a different Gospel, a distorted one, one that misrepresents the true message of Christ? What about our lives prevents others from the Gospel? Harriman Randle Joins us as he describes his journey as an African American pastor and how the church can support and enable minorities.
