Welcome to worship and thank you for joining us online! Today Brain Postlewait shares his sermon titled "I See You" with scripture Acts 3:1-10.

There is power in being seen—is there anything more powerful? A mother locks eyes with a infant; A lover’s gaze; A tearful goodbye; a longing return realized. Nothing really moves or changes without recognition and awareness. Being seen is a prerequisite to belonging, respite and healing. The Jesus way calls the people of God to be a community that isn’t afraid to look and see the other.

A Day With A Theologian (Part 2)

First Church Orlando — Mon, 27 Sep 2021 11:00:00 GMT

The Nu Class Sunday School presents "A Day With A Theologian" from their annual theology weekend.

The event was held in our Contemporary Worship Center on September 11, 2021

_____________________________________________________

John Dominic Crossan, Bible scholar and author

How Can We Christians Choose to Follow Jesus, The Prince of Peace, in a Chaotic World?

The theme for Crossan’s remarks is Divine Violence in the Christian Bible. The morning lecture, from the Old Testament, is on Sanction Theology or Sabbath Theology. The afternoon lecture, from the New Testament, is on Peace through Victory or Peace through Justice.

There are two competing visions within the Christian Bible of the Jewish God of Creation, developed side by side from Genesis to Revelation: violent or nonviolent. Jesus chose one model to follow. The basis for the theme and lectures is Crossan’s book, How to Read the Bible and Still be a Christian. It is readily available from numerous sources and in new and used versions.

John Dominic Crossan, an Irish-American former Catholic priest and retired university professor, is an acclaimed Bible scholar and author. He is a major New Testament researcher, and historian of early Christianity and of culture of the Ancient Mediterranean and New Testament worlds. He is a past president of the Society of Biblical Literature.
