This Sunday we will be finishing our series, One More.  BUT, we will never be done with doing One More because that is who we are called to be as Christians!  

Jesus was always about the One More! He called the twelve disciples and invited them to live their lives for the One More. He died for the One More. He rose from the dead for the One More. He commissioned his disciples to make disciples of all nations… all for the One More.

You are a One More. 
I am a One More. 
There is always a One More in your life and my life.

“Lord, choose us to reach One More!” 
“Lord, choose me to reach One More!”

Question: Do you feel inadequate to reach One More?  If so, GOOD!  We are inadequate - alone.  But the Holy Spirit uses us anyway.  

And… God invites us to lean into Him and grow in our knowledge and ability to make disciples who make disciples.  

One of those ways we grow in our knowledge and ability to make disciples who make disciples is to get trained in Apologetics (which simply means: defending the faith).  

Apologetics does three things for us: 

1. Gives us confidence in our own faith.
2. Gives us confidence in sharing our faith.
3. Gives us tools to answer questions and objections to the faith, and therefore to more effectively share our faith.

Here is the first of five short videos (10 minutes or less) introducing Apologetics.  You are invited to join me in this journey! 

In His Grace and Love, 
Pastor Steve

Some questions to ponder:

1. Is the Bible true?  All of it?
2. Is there anything that should be in the Bible but isn't?  Did God make a mistake and leave some important things out?
3. How important is the Bible in order to know God?
4. Is the Bible understandable?
5. What's the purpose of the Bible? 
6. And... how did we get the Bible? How was it compiled?

I am working on a mini-series of short videos diving into basic hermeneutics (Bible interpretation).  Lesson #2 answers the question: What is the bible and how did we get it?
