Course Content Coming Soon

Module 1: Friends With God

Jesus came not just to serve, but to have a relationship with us. Discover what it means to have a friendship with God, and how that should impact the way we approach our relationship with God, and how we serve others.

Video 2: Play With God (Coming Soon)

Many people would be surprised to hear that a playful attitude towards God and the world lies at the heart of Christian faith. But play is the essential and ultimate form of relationship with God, which is why Jesus told people to learn from children.

Video 3: Laughing With God

(Coming Soon)

Laughter is important because we cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh, and this is true of our relationship with God.
