On Sunday we’ll celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the founding of our church by asking: Why did God raise up a church like ours and what great things are next for us?  To guide our thoughts, we’ll explore three epic moments in Jesus’ life where he made clear what his churches should be like.  Let’s […]
