Check out this webinar that includes teaching from our own Pastor Troy as well as his associates Jim Singleton, Andrew Johnson, MJ Ramano and Chris DeVietro from the Flourish Institute of Theology. The webinar is on our Reformed heritage as Presbyterians leading up to ECO. It was also a preview of sorts to those potentially interested in the new class this group has put together.

🎙️ Missed our "Rooted and Relevant" Webinar? We've got you covered!

Last week we traced the Presbyterian tradition all the way from the Reformation to today - Catholic indulgences, Charles Darwin, and Presbyterian baptism ratios all made an appearance in one lecture. (Yes, really.)
