What Can I Do?

If you’ve ever wanted to help someone but felt helpless to do so, this week is for you. As we close out our sermon series, Empowered, we focus not on the gifts we feel like we need, but the ones we have that are enough. Join us as we reflect on the miraculous power that is enough for us.

Series: Empowered Have you ever felt powerless? Have news stories about the problems of the world disheartened you because there doesn’t seem to be anything you can do about it? Powerless is not how God describes us or created us.

Jesus told his disciples that God would give us power and then the disciples lives were forever changed. Exploring stories of power in the book of Acts, we’ll describe how God wants to empower you to be a changemaker in the world today.

This week, we are learning from the poetic and musical responses to the original Christmas story. People respond differently to Christmas, both in the past and today.

I Didn’t Expect to Celebrate My Family Secrets

In Matthew's first chapter of the gospel, he shares the family story of Jesus. It’s a long family story with highs and lows. While we often want to hide our family secrets, Matthew unveils them before we even meet Jesus. Join us for our second week of our series, An Unexpected Christmas!
