St. Clair Community Church Podcast
On Sunday, John-Mark continued our series "Foolish Wisdom: A Study in First Corinthians." Paul’s first letter to the Christians in the city of Corinth contains his thoughts on the good news of Jesus as God’s “foolish wisdom.” Paul’s radical faith in the crucified Saviour challenges its hearers in the 1st and 21st Centuries. What insight and encouragement might we gain from “listening in” to Paul’s five “essays” as we think about responding to the challenges of our own time: both within the Church and in Western culture?

The Mission Has a Church: The Mission has a Method
St. Clair Community Church Podcast
On Sunday, Pastor J-M continued our series "The Mission Has A Church Pt. II." Churches in North America (and the West more generally) have been in a period of decline for many years. The wider culture continues the project of secularism - the adoption of new ways of thinking, believing and being that are pointedly not Christian. How should Christians respond to these widespread cultural changes?

info_outlineOn Sunday we had the first of three talks from Brett Ullman. This week we will be hearing his talk called "The Walking Wounded" on mental health.
(From https://www.brettullman.com/the-walking-wounded/)
When we are surrounded by these heightened emotions and feelings life becomes one that is isolated from others and we begin to be full of questions instead of answers and we do not know what will work, or where to turn.
How do we begin our journey towards hope, healing, redemption, rescue, and a restoration to wholeness?
Where and when does our journey back to life begin again?
As a Follower of the Way (A Christian) What about our faith? How does our faith fit into our healing journey?
This talk has no cliches, no Christianese and does not put forward promises of false hope.
Brett Ullman in The Walking Wounded begins to address how to walk back towards healing and away from our emotions, feelings and thoughts that are keeping us paralyzed in life.
No shame, fear, or hiding is required as we are safe to journey towards healing together.
There is Hope for the Walking Wounded.
More on Brett from his website: Brett works as a full time speaker "[travelling] North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders, and parents on topics including parenting, mental health, media, marriage, men, pornography, and dating. Brett’s seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect our ancient faith with our modern culture we live in. Participants are inspired to reflect on what we know, what we believe and how our faith ought to serve as the lens through which we view and engage tough conversations in our society today."
