You Believe In An Outdated Magic Book: The Bible

Christians seem odd. Our odd views are counter culture. However, let us respond to our critics in a way that counters their own cultural narrative about Christianity. What if the very thing you find concerning ends up offering you far more hope than you ever dared dream? How can answers to the challenge of critics counter the cultural narrative about us, and offer hope to all?

The sermon today is titled "You Believe In An Outdated Magic Book," dealing with the claim that the Bible is irrelevant and unhelpful. This sermon is the fifth installment in our series "Counter/Culture." The Scripture reading is from 2 Timothy 3:16 (ESV). Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on September 13, 2026. All lessons fit under 6 broad categories: Begin, Instill, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve. This sermon is filed under BEGIN: A Satisfying Faith.
