    The Creed Part 6 – I Believe in the Forgiveness of Sins Pastor Ted Cunningham I believe in the forgiveness of sins. If you have your Bibles, turn to 1 John 1. We’re going to start the message and end the message there today. I had a professor in seminary… I learned a lot in seminary, but, boy, there were some things, with the passion at which they were delivered, that stuck out to me. A couple of things I learned. I took a class by Dr. Robert Lightner. He’s an older gentleman that had been at Dallas for a long time and I remember him getting passionate about this. I think his passion was flowing from the church growth movement where he was kind of getting worn out on the fluffy, feel-good, fuzzy, warm message. He would stand up and with fire… I could tell he wasn’t even going off any notes, but he would hit that little lectern and he would go, “Let me tell you something! If you’re going to profess the gospel of Jesus, you must talk about sin!” He was really fired up. He said, “You can’t just tell people they’re saved, you need to tell them what they are saved from!” Then he would say, “Let me tell you how to talk to them about sin!

    Cinema, Democracy and Perfectionism: Joshua Foa Dienstag in Dialogue

    Cinema, democracy and perfectionism CRITICAL POWERS Series Editors: Bert van den Brink (University of Utrecht), Antony Simon Laden (University of Illinois, Chicago), Peter Niesen (University of Hamburg) and David Owen (University of Southampton). Critical Powers is dedicated to constructing dialogues around innova- tive and original work in social and political theory. The ambition of the series is to be pluralist in welcoming work from different philosophical traditions and theoretical orientations, ranging from abstract concep- tual argument to concrete policy-relevant engagements, and encourag- ing dialogue across the diverse approaches that populate the field of social and political theory. All the volumes in the series are structured as dialogues in which a lead essay is greeted with a series of responses before a reply by the lead essayist. Such dialogues spark debate, fos- ter understanding, encourage innovation and perform the drama of thought in a way that engages a wide audience of scholars and students.

A place that provides food, drinks, and an overall foundation in the world of hospitality. It represents blood, sweat, and tears—a great deal of work with the hope of an even greater reward. On the other hand, hard work doesn’t always pay of, and the restaurant industry is an extremely risky place to be considering that 60% of restaurants go under in their first year, and 80% fail by the fifth year.1 Sometimes these failures fall on bad luck, hard times, and poor decisions. Sometimes they seem inexplicable.
