As we begin this new series, we look at the first verse of Psalm 23 and the significance of seeing God as our Shepherd and the sort of life this opens up before us.

From the series "How to Read the Bible". Psalm 104
Pastor Ryan Smith continues our Fall Series, "How to Read the Bible: Navigating the Library of Scripture" by looking at how to read the Bible as ancient literature. The Bible wasn't written in a cultural vacuum and so we need to take steps to read the Bible in light of the shaping languages and cultures that went into its authorship if we are to understand how to apply it to our Angeleno context.

From the series "How to Read the Bible". Exodus 17:14, Exodus 24:3-4, 1 Timothy 4:13
How are we to receive and read the Scripture? For many raised in the American church we imagine bible-reading to predominantly be something we do alone and apart from others. Guest preacher Pastor Ryan MacDonald guides us into the Bible's communal nature – that is, the Bible was written and designed to be read and studied within a community that is learning to live by its story.
