Great controversy and confusion surrounds the perception of gender roles, sexuality, and identity in our homes, in our churches, and in our city.  What light does the Gospel bring to bear on these poignant and important issues? In the glamorized sexual revolution of today, can Scripture provide insight and application that neither conforms nor exaggerates? More than just hot topics in our culture, these issues expose fundamental attitudes toward God, His creation, and His church.

In this video the LifeConnection Ministry Team reads those emails.  We shared this video on Sunday as part of our 2 year Anniversary Celebration.  How cool is it to see what God has done in the lives of people through the ministry of his Church.

If you would like to share what God has done in your life this past year during you involvement at LifeConnection please email us.  In a future post we’ll share these anonymously.

Check our more on Centro Crecer

This summer, we will be sending a team to Córdoba to work with Centro Crecer.  While there, we will be spending time in and with the community to spread God’s word.   Some projects we will be working on are…

• Traveling to the town of La Riconada to visit a church plant.  While there, we will get to see, very practically, how Centro Crecer is working to start churches to reach areas that have none.
• Reaching out to the students of Universidad Nacional de Córdoba.  UNC is the oldest university in Argentina, and is a demographic that Centro Crecer is actively working to reach.
• Construction of Centro Crecer’s new youth building.
• Creating and leading English as a Second Language classes.
• Working with the members of Centro Crecer to celebrate Día del Niño (Children’s Day).  Día     del Niño is an international holiday celebrating and promoting the welfare of the world’s children.
