Is Objective Truth True? // Josh Petersen
Your truth, my truth, we all have a truth. But can they all be true? If all truth is relative then how do we actually know anything at all? Does your brain hurt yet? If there is such a thing as objective truth, then it means everything to everyone. And that’s… the truth.

Is the Bible Actually Meaningful? // Josh Petersen
We all grew up being told stories. Some were from bedtime books to help us fall asleep. Others were fables created to help us know good from bad. More often than not, these stories taught us to behave in a particular way and become good citizens as adults. When we grew up though, we learned those stories were just that: stories. We know now they’re not real and sometimes they’re not even ideal in the real world. Is the Bible any different? Why shouldn’t we just mature past it like all the other stories we were told? Because they’re not just stories.

Did God Really Create Everything? // Josh Petersen
Where did all of this come from? That’s a loaded question, right? You might talk to 100 people and get 100 different answers to that question. One of the trickiest parts to answering, “God made everything” is the follow-up question: how? What if that’s the wrong question though?

Did Jesus Really Make Things Better? // Josh Petersen
Not many people argue that Jesus didn’t exist, but there’s still a lot of debate about what difference he actually made. Did he make things better? What did he come for in the first place? Did his death and resurrection change things?

Did Jesus Really Come Back From the Dead? // Josh Petersen
So much of what we’re told as kids is expected to be accepted. The problem is that as we become adults, we start to explore the expected and end up with more questions than answers. Generations have done just that with the resurrection of Jesus. Just like they did the day it happened, we’re all asking… is it real?

Espresso Shot // We Are Family // Lawrence Kirby
Romans 8:14-16
The Church is a family...
The story of the church begins with Jesus picking 12 followers and inviting them into family. He committed himself to them because Jesus understood that the greatest healing comes through relationships.
The biggest questions in life revolve around relationships, where do I belong? Who do I belong to? Where do I fit in?
Customer Reviews
Great way to learn when I'm busy
I miss services a lot due to work and it has been great to be able to listen to a message that is practicle in my own car.
Drop the mic
Talk about someone who drops the mic. Very whiny can’t stand it. I’m not sure what message is trying to delivered.if I hear one more week of babbling, I’m unfollowing this pod cast. It’s been over six months, get to a point.
A church for people who don’t like church
I moved back to the Illinois just about a month ago and getting plugged into GLC has been easy. It’s a welcoming atmosphere and the staff has worked really hard to develop a space where people who don’t feel comfortable in church - feel comfortable here.
