Welcome Back Pastor Matt at the Big Family Dinner

Our next Big Family Dinner is on September 6, and we hope you’ll join us. We will welcome back Pastor Matt and his family from clergy renewal leave and have an opportunity to ask him questions. These monthly gatherings have become a wonderful way for our church family to share a meal, connect with one another, and take part in meaningful conversations.

New Worship Series – What If Jesus Was Serious About Justice?
Begins August 2
Our theme this year is Joy & Justice. We have spent the summer Catching Joy, now it’s time to turn our attention to Justice. But what is “justice”? What are we speaking of when we talk about “justice”? Author Skye Jethani writes, “..it’s important to recognize that different definitions of ‘justice’ exist, rooted in different traditions and assumptions.” As such, there is a lot of confusion and debate, both inside and outside the church, on this topic.
We’re going to spend 8 weeks (August and most of September) getting a good grasp on what Jesus and the Bible have to say about Justice, as we read and discuss Skye’s book, What If Jesus Was Serious About Justice?
