December 2, 2019 by tomfodi Leave a Comment

I kicked off the Advent series at The Hills Church with the first message in a new series called “Across the Universe.” In this series, we are reconsidering just how miraculous the birth of Jesus truly is from a universe-wide perspective. In this first message, I attempt to reintroduce the awe people used to find … [Read more…]

Tom Talks: Straight Outta Context, “Love Never Fails”

November 1, 2018 by tomfodi

In this talk, I wrestle with the popular passage often read during weddings, 1 Corinthians 13, often called the love chapter. If Paul’s famous description of love is true, why does it often feel far less perfect than he describes it? This message was also delivered on the day following the worst anti-semitic attack in … [Read more…]

Tom Talks: Straight Outta Context, “I Know the Plans I Have for You…”

October 22, 2018 by tomfodi Leave a Comment

In this message, I unveil the full story surrounding the ever famous passage of scripture, Jeremiah 29:11. “For I know the plans I have for you” may be scribed with tasty icing on countless cakes celebrating graduations, promotions, raises, and other exciting occasions, but the true context and original meaning of these ancient words wasn’t … [Read more…]

October 17, 2018 by tomfodi Leave a Comment

Whenever we go through tough times, inevitably someone will seek to encourage you by saying, “God never gives us more than we can handle.” Sounds like scripture, right? Sounds true, right? Wrong. In this fourth installment of “Straight Outta Context” I tackle this popular misquote and set the record straight about whether or not you’ll … [Read more…]

Steelers record through 13 games last year: 7-5-1

Steelers record through 13 games this year: 8-5

To have a better record without Ben, AB, everyone else that's missing? Simply remarkable.

You haven't lived until you've been in a stadium this far from home and seen 40,000 Towel-waving fans leaping up and down through an 85-yard punt return touchdown. What a scene. #DKPS #Steelers #HereWeGo #RedSea #PITvsARI
