We all have a God-sized hole in our souls. We were created to worship, but we also want to be our own gods. How do we reconcile these competing impulses? An easy answer is to refashion god into a god of our own making & liking. In the beginning, God made man in His image & ever since we have been trying to return the favor. We would like a god who is there for us, who cares for us, but one who demands very little of us. We would like a deliverer but not a judge. A savior but not a lawgiver. We would like a God powerful enough to rescue us but naïve enough for us to be able to manipulate. In our day it has become quite fashionable to fashion our own spirituality. To say “my Jesus” would never teach that. Yet in Scripture, biblical Jesus does do that, say that & command that. So instead, we worship a personal Jesus, a Jesus of our own imagination. The thing is, imaginary friends cannot save you from real enemies & imaginary Jesus cannot save you from real sin, or hell itself.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
