Summer Bible Study: The Last Days According to Jesus
Wednesdays at 9:00am, Activities Center
All are invited to a 12-week summer Bible Study (which began last week) led by Pastor Scott in the Activities Center (downstairs conference room): The Last Days According to Jesus (by RC Sproul). What did Jesus mean when He said to His disciples that some of them would not taste death until they saw the Son of Man coming in His kingdom? What is meant when the book of Revelation says that the things prophesied therein "must soon take place"? Comments such as these have raised many questions, causing some to conclude that Jesus was wrong about the time of His second coming. We'll use a video-based curriculum followed by a discussion. Join us! No need to sign-up.

Join us each day for a meeting with Jesus in the Word of God.
As we pause our daily podcast for spring and summer, you are encouraged to check out “The Wake-up Call” podcast by Seedbed. This is a ministry that is truly led by the Holy Spirit and solid in the truth of God’s word. Our pastors and staff have attended several of their conferences and have benefited from their podcast! The Wake-Up Call provides a daily encouragement to shake off the slumber of our busy lives and turn our eyes toward Jesus. Each morning our community gathers around a Scripture, a reflection, a prayer, and a few short questions, inviting us to reorient our lives around the love of Jesus who transforms our hearts, homes, churches, and cities. Upcoming on the Wake-up Call:
GLORY TO GLORY (J. D. Walt)
