Visiting Scholars Ministry 2008-2009 Video
The Visiting Scholars Ministry (VSM) is a ministry within Praxis at Gracepoint Fellowship Church that reaches out to international scholars on short-term visits to UC Berkeley. In this first year of the new ministry, our VSM staff was able to meet 30+ visiting scholars who participated in our weekly activities such as media Bible studies, Praxis Life Matters, and other cultural events. For many of the visiting scholars, this was one of their first major personal exposure to Christians and they walked away with a better understanding of the Christian Gospel message and genuine friendships with Christians. We’re thankful for this opportunity to minister to them!

- Problem of Suffering / Pain June 22, 2010I've been asked a lot by non-Christians concerning the unfairness of God such as why a loving God would allow suffering (cancer, Holocuast, childhood mortality, etc.). I normally respond by saying that Jesus suffered the ultimate pain and unfair punishment by dying in our place on the cross so that we would not have eternal damnation. Are there other re […]
