A Note From Kyle

Didn’t you love the partnership of generations on display in our services last weekend? I heard so many great compliments about the experience–the willingness of Stan to empower and bless–the beauty of Valentina to sing and lead with courage–and the message of truth and hope Jared brought to us through the baptism and temptation of Jesus. So many of you are bringing friends and family to enjoy the gift of time and relationship on Saturday nights! If you haven’t already, please join us. We’ll be there with food and music, as well as fun activities for the kids.

I am anticipating this weekend as we get to lean into one of the most profound questions Jesus ever asked…”Do you want to get well?” We’ll consider the depth of this question as we look at the story from John 5, and perhaps, more importantly, we’ll walk it out together as we take part in one of our powerful worship expressions: a healing service.

These services are a beautiful expression of trust in the power of Jesus and the willingness to be cared for in loving community. So many of us, or those close to us, have deep wounds–areas of brokenness that even perhaps we have given up on ever changing or healing. You are not going to want to miss this weekend…and be sure to invite those around you, as we anticipate a powerful time together.

Peace…

Love Beyond

What does a day in your life look like?  Are you filling an agenda and checking off a to do list, or living out the fruits of the Spirit?  Jesus loved and served people without an agenda and shows us how to discover purpose by reflecting God in our daily lives. It is then that we realize love can only flow from who we are! Find out more and register.

A Note From Kyle

Don’t you love a great movie? A great story always has characters you fall in love with, who overcome adversity, narrowly avoid pitfalls orchestrated by an evil adversary and a daring rescue…

As we’ve been journeying through our summer series The Bible, I’ve been reminded how each of us are taking part in the greatest story ever written. We’ve been invited to play significant roles in the story of God’s redemption of His creation. Last week in the weekend experience, I love the way Kenton gave a unique blessing to each life stage and how we, as a community, blessed him before he left on summer break to rest, refresh his soul and hear God’s voice. This week, I’m looking forward to the turning point of the story – the arrival of Jesus, God in the flesh, ushering in the Kingdom of God. Invite your friends and family to join us as we continue to learn and live this story out together.

Peace…
