Alive In Christ (Ephesians 2.4-10) | The Temple Built Without Hands, Part 9 | Third Sunday of Advent | Salvation is a gift, not a reward. | Rev. J. Mark Bertrand | Visit us online at graceforsiouxfalls.org.
If the democratization of media in the digital age has overthrown the gatekeepers in journalism and politics, what impact is it having on the Christian faith — particularly when it comes to ecclesiastical authority? When push comes to shove, who should I listen to, the elders of my own congregation, or the influencers with the bigger platforms? It’s not a new question, but as Cameron and Mark discuss in this episode, it raises new challenges for the life of discipleship.
Pastor Mark answers questions from Israel, Charlie, Amelia, Ramona, Levi, and Rosemary.
This is the BIG QUESTION, where we do our best to answer questions from young disciples at Grace, and to be at peace with the mysteries that we can’t explain.
The sixth Vision Talk is a brief remembrance of Rev. Tim Keller, whose ministry has had a profound impact on so many churches, including ours. As Pastor Mark notes, Grace wants to be faithful to the example that he set of putting Christ before everything, including reputation. (For more on Keller’s influence on Grace, listen to this episode of The Commentary.)
