Keep Calm And Advent On: Recent Episodes
Keep Calm
Is God asking too much on the Sabbath? Is the Sabbath about law or relationship? Is it possible we have been keeping the Sabbath wrong? And if the Sabbath interrupts your week, is that good thing? In our last installment of our series, Habits of Faith, we look at a final spiritual discipline that we are sure will be a blessing to your life. Join us in this conversation, with special guest: Pr. Giovanni Esposito.

This and more, in this next Keep Calm and Advent On Conversation.
So do you pray with your eyes open or not? More importantly... are you praying? In this conversation, we explore the spiritual discipline of prayer. What prayers does God accept?

Do you really need to read your Bible? Why is it so important for the development and growth of faith? How does the Bible relate to God's revelation?

This and more, in our next episode of Keep Calm and Advent On.
We are saved by faith; definitely not by works. But have you ever heard about "working out" your salvation with "fear and trembling." What does it mean? Why does it matter?
