March 9. Give up Something BAD for Lent. Matthew 5:29-30, 16:26
We give up all kinds of things for Lent. Chocolate, soda, but that misses what Lent and the cross are all about. Let’s see what we can really give up.

Series: Spicing Up Your Love Life: Loving Like Jesus
February 9. What Kind of Love ~ 1 Corinthians 13.

Series: Who Am I?
The question that all of us struggle with. Are we defined by what we do? The roles we play? The people we associate with? Who am I?
January 12 – Who We Are – Mark 1:9-13
We are God’s children in whom He is well pleased. That affirmation should fill and guide our lives throughout the year. Spoken at Jesus’ baptism they are God’s affirmation for us.
