The New Testament Read through we are on as a church has forced me, over a short period of time, to consider again the cross and the resurrection of Christ. It struck me again this morning that there were two groups of people that Christ ministered to. One group saw him as a source of hope […]
February 2018 Construction Update
One of the main concerns we heard from some during the campaign was the loss of the large space that is our current worship center.

We’re Just Getting Started
This week our church family took a step of faith by voting overwhelmingly to move ahead to “Make Space for Change.” I know firsthand that there were many, many people who worked hard and gave selflessly to make this campaign possible. Thank you – God was at work in your life during this process and […]
A Spiritual Legacy
I have to tell you – I LOVE this time of year! Cooler temps, crunching leaves, walks in the woods, harvesting the last of the garden bounty (and sharing it). God couldn’t make it any more beautiful. He could have made it last longer though! Isn’t that how it goes – we get a lot […]
