This conviction shapes who we are and how we live as a community. We call this insistence on the centrality of Jesus, our Jesus centered theology. 

Here's the thing though, practicing a Jesus centered theology isn't always easy or even simple. Especially in a world where so much can divide us. 

In this class, we’ll explore what it means to be a people centered on Jesus. Together, we’ll examine how focusing on him unites us beyond our differences and theological distinctives. Instead of dividing we aim to embody a faith rooted in the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

Few sections of Scripture have generated more debate and disagreement than these, but how should we read and understand them? Most importantly, how do they ultimately point us to Jesus, even when they feel so different from His teachings?

Packer famously called the Incarnation the “supreme mystery” of the gospel. Neither the mystery of his death or resurrection, but rather Christ’s entering into the world and sharing in our humanity is what C.S. Lewis called the “Central Miracle” of the Christian faith, upon which every other miracle depends. And yet we seldom talk much about how “the Word became flesh and dwelled among us.”
