The Beginning of God's Story—and Yours Genesis: From Creation to Covenant is an eight-session study exploring how the first book of the Bible lays the foundation for the entire story of salvation. The book of Genesis tells how Creation was born from God’s infinite love and goodness, the chaos brought by the Fall, and the covenant promises that move salvation history forward. Through some of the most well-known and beloved stories in Scripture—including Adam and Eve, Noah and the Ark, the Tower of Babel, Abraham, Jacob, and Joseph—God initiates his plan to restore what was lost. Guided by Jeff Cavins and Dr. Scott Powell, this study shows how God works through every generation and covenant promise to draw his people back into relationship with him and prepare the way for our salvation, a plan that continues to unfold in our lives today.
New episodes weekly! Ascension and Called To More present an all new series from Fr. Columba Jordan. Filmed in Rome, St. Paul's Letters explores seven of St. Paul's most influential letters, discovering how we can apply the wisdom of the early Church to our lives. Fr. Columba explains the letters to the Romans, Corinthians, Philippians, Thessalonians, Colossians, Ephesians, and Galatians, touching on questions such as how we can know that Jesus is really enough, how to form lasting and welcoming parish communities, how to overcome people-pleasing, and how to truly have joy in all circumstances. St. Paul knew suffering, conflict, weakness, and uncertainty—but he also knew the unshakable joy, freedom, belonging, and peace that come from life in Christ. Join Fr. Columba each Monday and discover how Paul’s letters can help you live with deeper confidence in God, no matter what you’re facing.
