Description:More and more each day our country seems to walk down a path “away” from Jesus. We are becoming (if we aren’t already) a post-Christian nation. In comparison, in the period of time when the Book of Acts was written, the nation was pre-Christian. Both in need of Jesus! How do we engage our culture with the Gospel?

(2) Control and the Other Side of If...

David Anderson

4/2/17

Description:It’s been said that God is never early and never late. God is never in a hurry, but He is always on time. The struggle for us is the fact that His “on time” is never early enough for us and it’s almost always different than what we wanted. Today as we look at Jesus’ interaction with Lazarus and Mary this concept is very evident. It’s true in our lives too isn’t it? But we can trust Jesus implicitly. We can trust the other side of if to Him. We are so excited you joined us today. Welcome.

David Anderoson

(9) rethink: the secret of contentment

David Anderson

1/15/17

Description:So many industries in our culture thrive off their ability to make people discontent with where they are and what they have and what they are doing. And they are very good at it.

David Anderson

It will take some rethinking, which is why we are so glad you joined us today as we continue to rethink.
