Sign up for Life Matters (Friday night workshops sponsored by Praxis)
Life Matters this month will be held on Friday, May 16th, and will be held from 7:30-9pm at 2000 North Loop Rd.
Course descriptions are as follows:
-
Love & Respect
- The Love and Respect series launched conferences in 1999 to serve husbands and wives. Find out how the truth of Ephesians 5:33: "Husbands must love their wives and wives must respect their husbands," can make a difference in every marriage.
-
Are you there God: in Media?
- Learn about how different worldviews are presented to audiences of television, film, and news media. We'll learn how to dissect creative decisions that were made to reach an "effect" and examine the underlying values and emotions that can often go unnoticed. Understand how to clearly critique today's media outlets and the recent media trends present in our marketplace (such as the Disney Corporation).
-
Tough Questions
- Most of us have a picture of God in our minds that we have drawn, usually based on a series of ideas, feelings and past experiences from our life. We will explore and discuss answers to common questions people have about God, Christianity, the Bible and Jesus.
-
The World as We Know It
- Based on the Wide Angle: Framing Your Worldview DVD curriculum by Rick Warren and Chuck Colson, this course will examine worldviews as they relate to the most important questions of our day. Together, Warren and Colson explore such key issues as truth, tolerance, terrorism, reconciliation and the purpose of life.
-
More Than a Face
- In our media-based society where most of us have grown up watching hours of TV and movies and advertisements are everywhere we look, this session will explore how the media affects our self-image.
