Our Aim

We’re seeking to partner with parents in cultivating a passion for the supremacy of God in the lives of their students.  This means training students to embrace Jesus Christ as their greatest treasure, preferring Him above all the fleeting pursuits that the world claims will satisfy.  We aim to give our students a vision for not wasting their lives and to equip them to make much of Christ in their daily affairs.

Lunatic, Devil of Hell, or Lord and God

Perhaps you've heard the phrase "Lunatic,Liar, or Lord" in reference to the only three possible identities of Jesus Christ. This comes from something that C.S. Lewis wrote in Mere Christianity. Here's the quote. We'll be taking a look at it tonight in our final part to our Show & Tell series, "Objections & Answers."

I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: “I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept His claim to be God.” That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic--on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg--or else he would be the Devil of hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronising nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. he did not intend to.

Objections & Answers

On Wednesday night we're going to be wrapping up our series "Show & Tell" by discussing common objections that we encounter when sharing Christ with others. For example, somebody might respond, "I believe that Jesus was a good guy and a great moral teacher, but I don't believe he is God or the only way to heaven." How would you respond?

What are some other objections that you've encountered while sharing your faith?

Discipleship Groups Getting Started


Discipleship Groups are getting started. We'll be studying a book called Living the Cross Centered Life by C.J. Mahaney. It is a short read with, Lord willing, long lasting effects. As we work through this resource we'll seek to understand and be gripped by the amazing grace of God revealed in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Far from being merely our ticket into the Christian life, the gospel needs to be the lens through which we view all of life, the motivation for all that we do. Talk to a leader to get more info on finding a group for you to join!

Our reading schedule and the study questions are available on the right hand column of this page.
