In the concluding message of the series "Challenging Authority," Pastor Bartley Sawatsky emphasizes the journey from skepticism to acceptance of biblical authority, using examples of individuals who transitioned from disbelief to belief in Christianity. He reflects on the Bible's comprehensive worldview, asserting its coherence and superiority in addressing life's fundamental questions. Pastor Bartley encourages listeners to consider the Bible's overarching narrative rather than getting lost in its details and to see God as a personal, loving being who desires a relationship with his creation. Amidst common objections to faith, he challenges listeners to let God be God, to trust in his wisdom, and to embrace a personal relationship with Him, emphasizing the transformative power of accepting biblical truth.

ABOUT THE SERIES: In this eight-week series we take an honest look at one of the most important—and most questioned—books in history: the Bible. We’ll dive into challenging topics like its authority, reliability, authorship, and how it came to be. Along the way, we’ll confront the growing cultural view that the Bible is just an outdated, ancient text, and explore why it still matters today.

We meet at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings at Cineplex Cinemas, 1175 Maple Ave, Milton. We'd love to meet you and invite you to join us there!
