New Sermon Series Starts Sunday

Starting this Sunday and continuing through July 28, Pastor Mark will be leading us in a sermon series entitled, “How God Sees Us.”

The first week, we will do just that. How does God see me? He sees me as lovable, acceptable, valuable, forgivable, and capable. The second week, we will focus on our relationships and the several things that we can see in the relationships that Jesus had – service, compassion, truth.

The third week will be about how God sees other people and how we need to see them in that light, focusing on loving our neighbor. And finally, the fourth week will look at how God sees our problems and how He will guide and direct us if we trust in him to provide. Problems can become opportunities for spiritual growth.

We hope you will make time to join us for this sermon series, either in-person or by livestreaming on Facebook!
