What are the arguments made by those who claim that the American Founders intended to, and did, create a Christian nation? We will examine the evidence used to show that America was founded as a Christian nation.
In 1923, J. Gresham Machen published his book, Christianity and Liberalism, in response to the cultural challenges of his day. Exactly 100 years later, his words ring out as powerfully as ever as he shows that progressive Christianity is not Christianity at all. This seminar will explore the enduring effects of Machen’s life and insights to help our church understand why liberalism still remains a threat to true Christianity and how we ought to respond.

It’s not uncommon for a church to develop the mindset that children’s ministry is simply childcare that allows parents to benefit from their church’s primary preaching ministry. This low view of children’s ministry neglects the future church, along with the opportunity every church has to invest in the next generation. Ministering to parents is merely one aspect of why children’s ministry is necessary. This session will focus on a biblical approach to children’s ministry and our primary focus on evangelizing our children and encouraging the body to use their spiritual gifts in raising up the next generation of the church.
What did the key American Founders believe about Jesus, the Bible, and the basis of salvation? We will look at what they said that they believed and why that matters today.
