Rust, Lust & Dust: Living in the Treasure Principle

We're spending the first half of Lent reflecting on how our lifestyles can be spiritually anchored and supremely joyful. Based on parts of Randy Alcorn's powerful book, The Treasure Principle, Pastor Dan knits together a challenging, invigorating argument for Kingdom-first living:

• Feb 21: Rust- materialism or meaning?
• Feb 28: Lust- the Pornography of Possessions
  
• Mar 7: Dust- what should we leave our children?

 

Why’d Jesus Have to Die? Atonement Theory & Actual Life

It shouldn't be complicated, really. Jesus died because He loved us, right? But those of us who love someone know that living out our love can get pretty complicated.  From very early after Jesus' death and resurrection, the perspectives on why Jesus had to die have evolved--all grounded in Biblical truth, but illuminating different parts of God's love for us, and drawing people of differing theological points-of-view, too.  For the final 3 weeks of Lent, Kaw Prairie will get theological in a big-picture, cross-shaped way: Why is it that Jesus had to die? And of course, how then should we live?

Mar 14: Walking the Plank: Messiah & Rescue Mission

March 21: Paying the Bill:  Savior & Satisfaction

March 28: Chicken Soup for the World, Wild Turkey for the Soul: Jesus & Transformation

For Generations to Come

In the glow of Jesus' Resurrection, we'll be exploring just what kind of Body of Christ the risen Jesus is calling us to be. Beginning Easter morning, we'll start unpacking what a Kingdom-sized life can be, both as liberated people and as a submitted-to-the-Kingdom church.  It'll be raucous, righteous and downright fun!
