SUMMARY:We Believe: A Deep Dive — Biblical Authority
DESCRIPTION:Join us this fall for We Believe: A Deep Dive\, a special Wednesday night series led by Pastor Jeff Warren alongside guest scholars\, theologians and professors as we explore the biblical truths and Baptist distinctives that have shaped the church for generations.

SUMMARY:We Believe: A Deep Dive — Priesthood of Believers
DESCRIPTION:Join us this fall for We Believe: A Deep Dive\, a special Wednesday night series led by Pastor Jeff Warren alongside guest scholars\, theologians and professors as we explore the biblical truths and Baptist distinctives that have shaped the church for generations. Each evening concludes with a conversation and audience Q&A\, offering practical insight into how these truths inform our everyday lives. \nOn Sept. 16\, Dr. Kymberli Cook will explore the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers — a foundational Protestant conviction that every follower of Jesus has direct access to God through Christ\, our Great High Priest. This biblical truth removes the need for earthly mediators and invites every believer to pray\, study Scripture and offer their lives in worship and service to God. \nDrawing from passages such as 1 Peter 2\, Revelation 1 and 5\, and Exodus 19\, Dr. Cook will examine how Scripture describes believers as a “royal priesthood” called to God’s purposes. Through the lens of historical theology\, she will trace how Christians have understood and applied this doctrine throughout church history while challenging us to consider how God has uniquely created and gifted each of us to participate in his mission for his glory. \nRegister Wednesday Night Childcare \n  \n\n\n\nABOUT DR. KYMBERLI COOK\nDr. Kymberli Cook serves as associate director of The Hendricks Center and as an adjunct professor at both Dallas Theological Seminary and Criswell College.

SUMMARY:We Believe: A Deep Dive — Church & State
DESCRIPTION:Join us this fall for We Believe: A Deep Dive\, a special Wednesday night series led by Pastor Jeff Warren alongside guest scholars\, theologians and professors as we explore the biblical truths and Baptist distinctives that have shaped the church for generations. Each evening concludes with a conversation and audience Q&A\, offering practical insight into how these truths inform our everyday lives. \nOn Sept. 23\, Dr. Steve Bezner will explore the historic Baptist understanding of the relationship between the church and the state. Together\, we’ll examine why religious liberty and the separation of church and state have long been defining Baptist convictions\, rooted in Scripture and shaped by the sacrifices of faithful believers throughout history. \nDrawing from biblical teaching and themes from his book\, Your Jesus Is Too American\, Dr. Bezner will help us consider how the life and teachings of Jesus guide our engagement with government\, culture and some of the most challenging issues facing Christians today. \nRegister Wednesday Night Childcare \n  \n\n\n\nABOUT DR.

SUMMARY:We Believe: A Deep Dive — Freedom of Conscience in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:Join us this fall for We Believe: A Deep Dive\, a special Wednesday night series led by Pastor Jeff Warren alongside guest scholars\, theologians and professors as we explore the biblical truths and Baptist distinctives that have shaped the church for generations. Each evening concludes with a conversation and audience Q&A\, offering practical insight into how these truths inform our everyday lives. \nOn Sept. 30\, Dr. Katie Frugé will explore the Baptist distinctive of freedom of conscience\, often referred to as soul liberty\, and what it means for followers of Jesus in an age increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. \nThis session will examine the biblical conviction that every person has direct access to God through Jesus Christ without human mediation. Through the Holy Spirit\, God’s Word and the community of faith\, believers are invited into a personal relationship with Christ and are responsible for responding to him in faith and obedience. \nAs artificial intelligence becomes more integrated into everyday life\, Dr. Frugé will challenge us to consider an important question: Will we first seek wisdom from God\, or will we increasingly depend on the growing influence of artificial intelligence? Together\, we’ll explore how Christians can think faithfully about technology while remaining grounded in a biblical understanding of human dignity\, discipleship and the authority of Christ. \nRegister Wednesday Night Childcare \n\n\n\n\nABOUT DR.
