Starting Sunday, April 15 we will be starting a new series of messages at church called “Hot Button Topics.”
Over the next eight weeks we will be looking at various hot button issues that often stir up controversy in our culture. The culture around us is constantly presenting its ideas on these topics, and it’s important that we know what God’s word has to say on each of these important issues.
The purpose of the series is to present each topic in its cultural setting, to study the appropriate Scriptures, and to equip people to better respond with God’s love and truth to each situation.
If you’re interested in following along, you can access each message as it is preached at the following link: http://www.rayfowler.org/sermons/hot-button-topics/
