Building a Theology of Celibacy and Friendship for the Church
As soon as we are fully conscious we discover loneliness. We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves. (C. S. Lewis)
When we speak of awakening, we’re not talking about new age enlightenment, political upheaval, or social activism.
We’re talking about a daily alignment of our life to the light and love of Jesus, as we read in Ephesians:
Our work is anchored in helping dissatisfied and passionate believers follow that ancient hymn. If that resonates with you, we invite you to join us.
Ours Great Redeemer’s Praise is the first major Wesleyan hymnal to be release in thirty years. The hymnal is an 800-page compilation of hymns that includes service music for various occasions, a rich collection of creeds, prayers, and benedictions, and treasury of hymns by Charles and John Wesley.
The 675 hymns are organized around the Apostles Creed. You will find both classic and contemporary hymns throughout the collection!
Every year we gather together to be restored, refreshed, and reignited by the Holy Spirit. We invite you and your family or team to join us!
A Discipleship Band is a group of 3 to 5 people who read together, pray together, and meet together to become the love of God for one another and the world.
A series of short talks on theological topics from a wide variety of Christian professors, pastors, speakers, and theologians.
While “Jesus saves” remains the central claim of Christianity, the ensuing question—How?—demands attention. How exactly does a brutal and shameful crucifixion bring salvation? Why does the Bible call it good news, and why should we?
In How Jesus Saves: Atonement for Ordinary People, Joshua McNall unpacks the meaning of Jesus’s life and death for everyday people. Through Scripture, story, and real-life applications, he brings together the primary models of atonement doctrine and offers an integrated vision for how Jesus offers the benefits of salvation to the world.
Seedbed sells resources, but we give away far more in resourcing than we sell.

A key building block in our theology of the body is the recognition that our physical bodies are signs to the world as we embody God’s saving purposes and his holy love.
Biblical singleness more closely aligns to the concept of “single-minded focus” or “exclusivity of intent” or the “undivided life.”
A proper theology of the body embraces the sacredness and sanctity of all our embodied existence and sees the eternal significance in each day.

The body celebrates that our physical bodies serve a redemptive purpose. They are the means through which God conveys his grace.
The incarnation is theologically linked to the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is connected to our own bodily resurrection.
Future bodily resurrection transforms grief from despair to hope.
More than simply the final guarantee of life after death, Easter was the decisive start of the general resurrection and has set in motion the final redemption and transformation of all creation.
The gospel calls all of God’s people to engage in acts of witness to the surrounding world.
Mary had returned to the tomb with the male disciples, but she did not leave like them. She lingered at the tomb, weeping and mourning.
The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus reenact and fulfill the Old Testament story.
