Making Sense of the Bible
This six-week sermon series is based on Rev. Adam Hamilton’s book, Making Sense of the Bible: Rediscovering the Power of Scripture Today in which he invites us into an honest conversation about the beauty and complexity of Scripture. Together, we will consider the same fundamental questions he does within his book about the Bible such as: What is the Bible? In what sense is it God's word, and in what sense is it human reflections on God? What do we mean by calling it "inspired?" and Is it inerrant or infallible, as many Christians believe? We will also wrestle with some of the more complex issues we face when engaging with the biblical text such as the validity of science, violence within the Old Testament, and the issue of suffering. |
While Scripture can confuse us, challenge us, and even disturb us, Scripture can also encourage us, as well as bring us comfort and hope. Our hope throughout this series is to gain a deeper appreciation of the Bible so that ultimately we can discern the voice of the Divine through it and find its words to be life-changing and life-giving.

Journey at Christ Church is called to the ministry of reconciliation. We embrace, as a gift, the diversity of our neighborhood and the world. We celebrate our human diversity of age, education, ethnicity, faith history, gender identity, marital status, mental and physical ability, political view, race, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. We affirm that all people are created in the image of God, and, as beloved children of God, all are worthy of God’s love and grace. We welcome all people into participation in the life and ministries of Journey at Christ Church as we journey together toward Jesus. We recognize that there are differences among us, but that we are more alike than we are different. We believe that we can love alike even though we may not think alike. We also believe that we are called to love each other, embracing our differences rather than excluding others because of them. We proclaim this statement of welcome to all who have known the pain of exclusion or discrimination in the church and society. We invite all people to join us in our faith journey toward greater love, understanding, and mutual respect. |
We are listed on LGBTQ+ SPECTRUM of Findlay's directory that is intended to support, promote and connect the LGBTQ+ community to open and affirming establishments within Northwest Ohio. We celebrate diversity and inclusion for all, and particularly seek to enhance the lives of under-represented populations.
