SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Church & Culture: Equipping the Parents in Your Congregation With a Biblical View of Gender

They are excited to host this webinar titled “Church & Culture: Equipping the Parents in Your Congregation With a Biblical View of Gender.” As culture continues to embrace gender identity ideology that is contrary to biological reality and biblical truth\, church leaders have a responsibility to share God’s truth in love. And while tackling these controversial cultural issues may feel daunting\, we’re here to support you and your fellow church leaders. \nA panel of denominational leaders will join ADF attorneys for this discussion. LCMS Fifth Vice President\, Rev. Christopher Esget\, will be one the pastor panelists; he has a wealth of knowledge on this topic. \nDuring the webinar\, they will share: \n\nCurrent legislation and court cases related to gender identity issues and parental rights\nWays the Church can engage on human sexuality issues in today’s culture\nHow your church can protect its religious freedom as it seeks to operate according to biblical principles\n\nWe encourage you to attend so you can be aware of some of these pressing legal and legislative issues. As part of the session\, there will also be a segment discussing the growing interest in top Buchmacher ohne Lugas Lizenz\, shedding light on their operations\, legal frameworks\, and the implications for users in different jurisdictions. Parents in your congregation are looking for answers and help. This webinar will help you minister to their needs.

SUMMARY:Lutherans For Life of Michigan Life Summit
DESCRIPTION:LUTHERANS FOR LIFE OF MICHIGAN PRESENTS A LIFE SUMMIT\nStaying the Course: Re-engaging in the Battle for Life in the Wake of Proposal 3 \nSUNDAY\, APRIL 23 | 2:00-5:00 P.M. \nST. PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH\n329 N. SORRELL ST.\nFOWLER\, MICHIGAN 48835 \nPlease join us for this event to hear and learn how we can be involved in continuing to share the message of the value of every human life. This is a great event for our congregational Life Teams\, Life Advocates\, pastors\, lay leaders\, as well as anyone who would like to become more prepared to share the For Life message! \nSPEAKERS\nDEACONESS CHRISSIE GILLET\, LFL DIRECTOR OF WORD OF HOPE: “Reconciling Relationships: Redeeming Grace After an Abortion” \nTo be Disciples For Life – any life issue\, including abortion – we need to be equipped to reconcile relationships. We value all human life as created\, redeemed\, and called people of God. Despite being saints\, we are sinners living in a fallen world and desperately in need of reconciliation. Reconciliation involves an acknowledgement of the rupture\, honesty about responsibility\, repentance for wrongdoings\, forgiveness of guilt\, peace through love\, and a desire for atonement. When it comes to life issues\, this is a threefold process: \n\nReconciliation with God\nReconciliation with my neighbor\nReconciling my neighbor with God and other neighbors\, all of which happens in and through Christ.\n\nDeaconess Chrissie joined Lutherans For Life to serve as the Word of Hope Director in April of 2017. As a Veteran staff psychologist and certified deaconess\, she has an acute understanding of both\, the secular worldview and a Christ-centered identity. Her vocations as pastor’s wife and mother of seven further motivate her compassion for life. Chrissie oversees the Word of Hope ministry\, which includes writing articles\, public speaking along with her service dog Phoebe\, and responding to hotline calls and emails. She listens without personal judgment while responding in Christian truth and love. She will also go above and beyond to connect people with pastors\, local services\, and natural supports. However\, her two favorite roles are networking with other life-affirming organizations and participating in the spiritual care of people who are broken-hearted by life issues. \nPASTOR MATTHEW DURANCE: “I Came That They May Have Life: Cultivating a Culture of Life in the Lutheran Parish”  \nWe live in a world that is hostile to life. Whether it’s in Hollywood\, public schools\, or in the court of public opinion\, Christian’s are finding themselves against the world when it comes to marriage\, family\, and children. So how do we preserve our families\, teach our children\, and promote the goodness of human life when the odds seem stacked against us? In this presentation we will discuss how to teach on the sanctity of life in our own Christian congregations\, as well as be a true light to the world and salt of the earth. \nThe Rev. Dr. Matthew H Durance currently serves as Pastor of Zion Lutheran Church and School in Harbor Beach\, MI. Previously he served as pastor at Bethlehem & St. Peter’s Lutheran Parish in Greenleaf\, Kansas and the Life Coordinator for the Kansas District of the LCMS. Pastor Durance received his Master of Divinity from Luther Seminary (ELCA) in St. Paul\, MN and after being accepted into the LCMS by colloquy in 2017 he received a Doctor of Ministry from Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne\, IN. A Michigan native\, Pastor Durance and his wife Janessa have been married since 2011\, and have four children: Hudson\, Tatum\, Ezra\, and Sutton. \nPASTOR PAUL CLARK: “Staying the Course: Re-engaging in the Battle for Life in the Wake of Proposal 3″ \nThe event is free. Light refreshments will be served. \nPlease RSVP (if possible by April 10) to Pastor Paul Clark at revpmclark@gmail.com or 517-420-4826. \nThose who have not registered are still welcome to attend.
