But Jesus didn't invent parables, he was leaning into his culture and tradition as he followed the example of many Old Testament authors. Join us on Discover the Word as we read a few Old Testament parables, and see how they help us connect our faith to our everyday lives.

Recently, The Survey of American Life found that millions of men have dropped out of the workforce, colleges, dating, and friendships. Those who responded that they have no friends went from 3% in 1990 to 15% in 2021. And men are not only disappearing from relationships, but from the church as well. In this series of conversations, Rasool Berry and Dr. Maliek Blade lead the group into conversations that explain how The Whole Man Project seeks to address these issues by looking at four components of a man's whole life, applying Scripture and practical wisdom to the head (mental health and theological truth), heart (emotional health and relationships), hands (vocation and physical health), and soul (spiritual health and community).

What comes to mind when you hear the words “prophet” and “prophecy?” Often we think of someone who is a spiritual meteorologist who forecasts history and writes it down before it happens.

During this series, Dr. David Turner joins the Discover the Word group to explore with us how Jesus was Israel’s last great prophet. How did they, and how will we, respond to the message He came to bring?
