In order to finish the work He started, Jesus put together a unique team of people. In the first church were men and women from all sorts of social, economic and racial classes. Flash-forward two thousand years, and many of our churches are just as diverse. And sometimes it can seem like recipe for conflict and disaster. On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez encourages us to see the differences in our church not as disadvantages, but opportunities!
There are many in our world that will say the Bible is made up; it's just a bunch of stories with no historical foundation. Why should anyone believe any of it? But when we look at the archaeological evidence from the ancient Holy Lands, we find that their world confirms the truths of the Bible...it continually proves the Bible to be true. Be sure to request the book The Essential Archaeological Guide to the Bible Lands with your generous donation this month.
