Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 8:30 AM at Abilene Christian University: "These lessons explore biblical resources for our pursuit of justice. While justice and love often are played against each other, in the Bible they are complementary features of God's redemptive work. Justice is more than punishment for sin. Justice is commitment to a reality in which all humans have enough power, status and wealth to function as human beings made in God's image."

Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 9:45 AM at Abilene Christian University: "Families of children with disabilities are often "unwelcomed."

Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 4:00 PM at Abilene Christian University: "God conflict? Paul escorts you to the front row to witness and participate in God's outbreak of peace. Allow God's righteousness to guide your discovery of your birthright as peacemaker."

Explore a biblical, honest and healthy discussion of sexuality led by an ACU student."

Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 9:45 AM at Abilene Christian University: "God's truth is more than just right; it also is beautiful. Therefore, when God's truth is suppressed there is a corresponding loss of beauty both in ourselves and in our world. Paul encourages us to consider the aesthetic implications of sin in Romans 1:18-23 so that we will understand that not only is sin illogical, it also is unappealing. It is an anti-aesthetic that robs our lives and world of divine beauty."

Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 9:45 AM at Abilene Christian University: "This workshop helps participants think about preaching Old Testament texts concerning justice. Each session addresses a genre of biblical text and panelists discuss the move from text to sermon.

Lecture given Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 8:30 AM at Abilene Christian University: "What does Paul mean when he writes, "if you confess with your mouth that 'Jesus Christ is Lord' and you believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved"?

While the history of the Chinese church is one of persecution, it is also a history of vibrant revival, mission movements, and house churches."
