Something You Might Not Know

Bryan shares the incredible ways

God has been moving at and through Trinity!

Each month, Bryan will share some of what's happening at Trinity. Beginning now with a look back at the amazing moments to celebrate 2024 - some of which are our mission work in Mexico building five homes, Honduras donations to bring water to a community, our huge growth and exposure on social media, and the astounding number of students participating in ministry. This new year has just begun and we're excited to see what God has planned. Let's do this again next month!

Sermon Series

"Forgiveness for Dummies"

Matthew 18:21-35

Pastor Bryan Eckelmann

One of the most difficult things a Christian is asked to do is to forgive -- truly forgive. We will explore what forgiveness means (and doesn't mean), and how God wants us to forgive when we don't think we can.

FREE JOURNALS! If you haven't already picked up your Matthew journal, they're available at the entrance to worship on Sunday. Make sure and ask an usher.

Sermon Reflection Questions available on the Small Groups page of the website Friday evening.
