Art On Life (6.21.09)

This week, Pastor Mike explores the scriptural and philosophical basis for creating and consuming art as a Christian. Why do we need it? What purpose does it serve? What does it tell us about our culture? Can Christians use art to engage culture, and if so, how?

Song of Solomon 8:1-14 Love Is... (6.14.09)

In this closing chapter of The Song, we see the Shulamite's background, including how her brothers protected her reputation and purity when she was growing up. We also see one of the most poetic passages in the Wisdom literature describing what love is.

Song of Solomon 6:11-7:13 Generosity in Marriage (6.07.09)

This week, Pastor Mike explores the topic of generosity in the context of marriage. We see how the bride is physically generous with her husband, Solomon is verbally generous with his wife, and they both are generous with their time for each other.

Song of Solomon 5:9-6:10 (5.24.09)

This is the second part of a section that began last week entitled, "Selfishness vs. Servanthood". Last week we saw that selfishness was the cause of a marital argument between Solomon and His bride, and this week we see that servanthood allowed them to reconcile with each other. Pastor Mike deals with conflict resolution and what it means to "forgive others as God in Christ forgave you" (Eph. 4:32).

Song of Solomon 5:2-8 (5-17-09)

Selfishness is both the root and the fruit of many kinds of sin. In Chapter 5, we see a glimpse into the selfishness of both Solomon and His bride, deal with where selfishness comes from, how the gospel gives us fresh perspective on that sin, and specific application for the intimacy designed for marriages.
