Our Encounter Discussions are about getting out into public spaces and creating a dialogue. They are an intentional way to meet new friends, build relationship, and engage our community in a casual environment. More than that, you'll have some great conversation about life and faith.

ABOUT 36 PARABLES

This discussion series is based on a selection of 36 short films depicting Jesus' parables in real life and modern settings. Considering that Jesus told these stories so that we could relate them to our everyday lives, we believe that Jesus reveals himself through such common experiences, and we can encounter Him in the most unlikely places.

We challenge you to step beyond safe and routine faith and discover for yourself the deep spiritual truths of these often ordinary stories.

THIS WEEK: THE MUSIC BOX

Have you ever stumbled upon a great "treasure"? What would you be willing to pay or do to obtain this "treasure"? What is more valuable to you than your money or comfort?

This week we're examining the short film "The Music Box" based on the Parable of the Hidden Treasure in Matthew 13:44. Don't miss this week's discussion at the Staggering Ox this Tuesday, September 1 @ 6:30pm.
