    Great movies captivate audiences with their intricate narratives and suspenseful climaxes. Although the focus is usually on the leading men and women, the involvement of supporting actors and set designers plays a crucial role in shaping the outcome of the drama. The Bible weaves together a consistent narrative featuring famous characters that are frequently taught and preached about. Improve your understanding of the cultural-historical context of the Bible by attending these two sessions, where the emphasis will be on co-stars, nations, groups, and locations playing a supporting or antagonistic role in God's redemptive story. (Note: Pt. 2 of this session is unavailable due to technical issues while recording).

    Regardless of your relationship status – single, dating, or married – this is a session for everyone! Throughout the history of the Church, Christians have tended to elevate the importance of one status over the other. Scripture, however, refers to both single and married as weighty, meaningful vocations. This session will focus on how the Bible has viewed and even lifted up singleness as a way to bear witness to the breadth of Christ's love. Learn, be encouraged, and see how Christian singleness is a gift to the church!

Some of our LCC church family (Dave & Denise Noble, Austin & Aubrey Willis, and Melia Adams) will share from their personal experiences and offer helpful tips during this session.

    "Many of us are eager to develop our relationship with God. The problem, however, is that we can't seem to stop long enough to be with Him.” (Peter Scazzero). In our fast-paced lives, it's hard to slow down and notice God – but God created us in His image for a rhythm of work and rest. Come learn how to slow down and experience Jesus's invitation to simply be with Him.

    This podcast is a recording of one of our LCC Summer Sessions - Raising Kids with a Biblical Worldview (Kelsie Koch). Recent studies have shown that only 6% of Americans who claim to be Christians actually hold to a biblical worldview. How do we make sure our kids are among those who hold to biblical truth in a world that no longer values that truth? In this Summer Session class, we'll talk about and share resources to help parents shape the way their kids can view the world—through the lens of God's word.

    The pace of John's gospel begins to slow as chapters 7 and 8 take time to process the evidences and signs Jesus has demonstrated. With the exception of a popular narrative where Jesus offers grace to a woman caught in adultery, these chapters focus on the continued debate around Jesus's identity and what belief in him looks like.

    In this chapter Jesus performs the only sign recorded in all four gospels to continue to prove he is indeed the Son of God. He also proclaims to the crowds that he is the “Bread of Life” and that those who truly believe in him find their nourishment in a relationship with him. Believing in Jesus is not always easy, and when the decision to do so becomes difficult, many choose to walk away.

    In these chapters we continue to see that Jesus brings something new and greater - and this new life extends to all people. However, not everyone so easily lays aside their old ways of thinking to embrace what Jesus brings, even though this has always been God's plan since the beginning to rescue those who believe.

    In chapters 2-3, John conveys in multiple ways that Jesus has come to bring something new. The time has come for the old ways of living and relating to God (ways that served as sign posts to humanity's need for a Savior) to find fulfillment in the new life Jesus offers. Our response now is to recognize what it means to step into this new life and, as John the Baptist testifies, to allow Jesus to “become greater” while we become less.

    Mark's final chapters detail the death and resurrection of Jesus revealing his ultimate power over death.

    Mark 11 ushers in the last week of Jesus's life known as the Passion Week. In this chapter Jesus rides into Jerusalem openly fulfilling a prophecy concerning the coming Messiah.

    In Mark 7-8 we continue to see the slow revelation of Jesus's true identity, and we finally see a turning point when Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the Messiah.
