Cameron Horner visits Park Hill Church with a powerful message on discovering the joy of Jesus amidst deep suffering. Cameron became a quadriplegic after sustaining an injury in his late teens. Since then, Jesus has done the miraculous in Cameron‘s life, but not the way many would expect.

Dr. Carmen Joy Imes delivers a powerful seminar on Women in the Bible and the Church, followed by a lively Q&A session with a live audience at Park Hill Church. In this seminar, Carmen unpacks what the scriptures teach about the value of women and men fully participating in the life of the Church together as God's co-equal image bearers.  Carmen is associate professor of Old Testament at Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and is the author of several incredible books: Bearing God's Name: Why Sinai Still Matters, Being God's Image: Why Creation Still Matters, and the forthcoming Becoming God's Family: Why the Church Still Matters. Carmen is passionate about equipping the church to engage the Old Testament well and to see its relevance for the Christian life.

Carmen Joy Imes, an associate professor of Old Testament at Biola University and author, delves into the profound meaning of being made in God's image. She explores how this belief affects our treatment of individuals with disabilities and emphasizes the dignity and worth of every person. Carmen challenges societal norms that rank individuals by abilities, advocating for a compassionate perspective that values everyone equally. Her insights encourage listeners to rethink how they see themselves and others in light of their divine identity.

In this teaching, we consider what Christians mean when we use the word “God.” There’s also a lot of vagueness and haze that comes when we use this word, even as Christians. We talk about “God” as though we’re talking about the same thing. But most of the time, we aren’t talking about the same thing at all—and that’s just IN the church. When people talk about God outside the church, things get even more vague. In the famous story of Moses and God meeting at a burning bush, we are presented with an important opportunity to think very intentionally about WHO Christians are talking about when we talk about God.

Feelings can be tricky—they’re personal, sometimes unreliable, and easy to misinterpret. But the Bible shows us that they’re also a vital part of faith. Scripture doesn’t dismiss our emotions; instead, it gives us a roadmap to help us navigate them, leading us to their true purpose—deep, childlike intimacy with God, the creator of facts and Lord of our feelings.

What if one of the greatest blessings in the Church is the presence of its own suffering people? Do you believe the Church needs sufferers? Brenna Blain visits Park Hill with a vulnerable message about how important it is for people to bring their authentic grief and loss into the center of the community in Jesus’ name.
