SUMMARY:Cornerstone | Unit III: Theology and Ethics
DESCRIPTION:Build a solid foundation of faith and integrity to lead with wisdom in a complex world. \nExperience the thrill of a deeper understanding of the richness\, wonder\, and mystery of God the Father\, God the Son\, and God the Holy Spirit. \nEverything is at stake in our right understanding of Jesus’ life\, death\, resurrection\, ascension\, and return.
