This Sunday we will explore one of the Bible’s most unusual promises, as we continue our sermon series called “Seven Biblical Promises That Anchor Our Sanity and Support Our Serenity.” Although this week’s promise is a bit intimidating, we’ve got to understand it, and apply it, if we want to experience abundant life.
This Sunday we launch a new sermon series entitled, “Life’s Three Greatest Temptations . . . according to the Bible.” Spoiler alert. They’re not what you think!

This Sunday we resume our sermon series called “Dinner With Jesus.” We’ll study one of Jesus’ most famous meals – the meal where he fed 5,000 people! – and draw three critical life lessons from what he said and did at that meal.
