Summer Shifts and Fall Arrival

Early this summer we shared with you some of the changes we were making to accommodate shifting schedules people were experiencing as well as a time of regrouping in regard to our ministries.

Fall is arriving soon, and you may be wondering what is happening with our ministry teams. As for now, both of those changes will remain in effect. We will continue to prayerfully process our teams and ministries through the Fall months.

He made it clear that the tax collector came away justified in his worship because of his humility.  Some of the characteristics of the Pharisee (Don't be that guy) were.

Is There a God?

Great Question! How would you answer? Are you aware that you can not prove that He is? You can believe and you can see evidence, but to prove is another story. So, why DO you believe there is a God? How can you talk with those around you about this question that everyone considers at one time or another? We explored this question on Sunday. Click the link below to watch the message online now.
