Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

Ep. 202: Jesus WANTS us to Take Risks Through Faith - Leadership & Culture ft. Pastor Brian Hughes

Video
Men’s Alliance

Pastor Brian Hughes from Passion Community Church shares his journey to faith, which began later in life after experiencing a pivotal moment with his daughter. Despite initial challenges and criticisms, Brian followed God's guidance to create a church for non-traditional churchgoers, leading to significant growth and impact. His emphasis on trusting in God's provision, taking risks, and fostering a culture of transparency and delegation has allowed the church to thrive and reach a wider audience. The importance of aligning actions with God's will, seeking feedback, and empowering others within the organization are key themes in Brian's leadership approach, ultimately resulting in a supportive and accountable community focused on continuous progress and following God's calling.
