WEiRd Series

Craig Groeschel wrote a book called, "Weird: Because Normal Isn't Working." In it Groeschel defines what is normal in the culture and then challenges Christians to live different, weird lives. Not for the sake of being weird but because God's values are often the opposite of what is normal in culture.

One of the problems Christianity has is that it is not much different than the culture when it comes to values. The divorce rate among Christians is not any different than those who are not Christians. The of couples who live together between Christians and non-Christians are in a statistical dead heat. Consumerism is the same within the church and outside the church.

Christians have become accustom to letting culture define what is normal. The Bible teaches that we should live in the world but be different than the world. We are to be weird!

So our new series, beginning January 22 is called WEiRd. We are going to look at several different topics we need to be "weird" in: Finances, Time, Sex, Marriage and Parenting.

So let's challenge each other to get a little WEird!
