Each year one-third of the entire world population observes Christmas. Two billion people celebrate that a Child was born in a manger 2,000 years ago. They decorate their homes inside and out, put up Christmas lights, and exchange gifts. They send cards expressing the joy of the occasion, and sing popular Christmas carols, such as “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.” Yet comparatively few truly understand the meaning of that famous hymn—that Jesus was “born that man no more may die.” “Christmas Gone Viral” is a unique and fascinating explanation of that wonderful truth.

This course explores 18 selected psalms from the Psalter, the prayer book of the Bible and the early church. You will be encouraged and inspired by Israel’s worship and praise of God as Creator. You will also come to sense how these ancient songs and prayers shaped the lives of God’s people and sense the call of the Davidic kingdom that resounds throughout many of the psalms. This course will examine themes of celebration, including praise for God’s glory and his presence, as well as thanksgiving for his lovingkindness and faithfulness. It will also examine the lament of God’s people for challenges they faced, losses and injustices suffered, and the hope they found in the middle of distress or disaster. These important psalms not only point Christians today towards worship in song or personal piety in practice, they also give voice and expression to concrete situations of international justice and global concerns for God to put the world to rights. The psalmist asks real questions such as: • How come the world is this way? • How do I pray for someone who feels the closure of death? • What expressions can I use to praise the Lord and respond to the call to worship? • Where can I turn when everything seems hopeless? • Why does it seem like the wicked go unpunished? • What words can I use to give thanks to God? • How can I celebrate with joy for all that God has done? We invite you to join us as we explore these selections from the Psalms that continue to sing God’s praise, build up the church, and give Christian voice that might resound throughout the world today.

Rebellion in God’s council. Spirits of dead giants. Rival gods creating chaos.​ These are the things of myth and fairy tales, right? The Bible tells a different story. In the documentary The Unseen Realm, a light is cast on the strange and enigmatic plane of the supernatural that lies within the pages of Scripture. And what we discover are two distinct worlds—with vastly different inhabitants—created and ruled by one loving triune God.
