Gesturer: Hope.
Speaker 1: Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand;
Speaker 2: and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God.
Speaker 3: And not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings,
Speaker 4: knowing that suffering produces endurance,
Speaker 5: and endurance produces character,
Speaker 6: and character produces hope,
Speaker 7: and hope does not disappoint us,
Speaker 8: because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
The word of the Lord.

A podcast from Calvin University featuring thoughtful leaders discussing key topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in the context of Christian life and witness.
Music and prayer are prominent elements in worship liturgy. How does the culture of the worship community influence these worship practices? How should we engage culture and yet be countercultural in our practice of music and prayer? Engage with this panel from four continents as we explore how cultural values form and inform worship practices.
Congregations, pastors, and parents/caregivers have many opportunities to join together in worship and prayer practices that more intentionally engage children and help them come to know and love God and grow in faith together. Panelists will discuss ways to intentionally create intergenerational community in which people of all ages, including children, are welcomed as full participants whose participation enriches the community and gives praise to God.
