The Changing Concept of Church

August 15, 2010
    This timely forum examines the Biblical concept of Church against the contemporary backdrop of the constantly changing Christian culture which appears to be reinventing the concept of Church and its practice.

A Biblical Perspective on Environmentalism

March 28, 2010
    What is our obligation to the world around us?  What should shape our perspective of nature?  When does environmentalism go too far?  What does the Bible say about our stewardship of the earth? This forum covers these questions, and much more.




Christianity & the Cults

October 21, 2007
    They know a lot about you... but what do you know about them?  An amazing amount of cults have sprung up over the last century and a half.  What is a cult?  Where do they come from, and which ones are most influential?  This forum outlines the basics about the more prominent cults that have invaded Western culture, and how they have seriously missed the mark Biblically.




Christianity and World Religions

June 24, 2007
    Are there many ways to God? Why are there so many world religions? What makes Christianity unique?  Dennis Mock addresses these and other questions in this very timely forum.





Christianity and Post Modernism

March 25, 2007
    Exactly what is “Postmodernism” both in terms of religious and secular thought?  How does it impact current culture? How should the church respond to this trend and threat?  Dennis Mock describes and analyzes the strengths and the many weaknesses of post modernism and demonstrates how post modernity has infiltrated even the thinking and culture of the church!
