Echoes of Sunday

A Midweek Devotional Reading Based on Last Sunday’s Sermon

Looking for a mid-week lift? In a culture that constantly pressures us to prove our worth through our career, family, social standing, or digital footprint, it is exhausting to carry the heavy weight of crafting our own identity. Yet, as Paul reveals in Colossians 1, Creation is not ultimately about the stuff of the universe, but about the supreme King who made it all. You were not only created by Jesus, but explicitly for Him—and because He holds all things together, you don't have to carry the burden of holding your own life together. If you are feeling weary, scattered, or uncertain of where you belong this week, take two quiet minutes today to anchor your heart in the Creator King who designed you, knows you, and faithfully sustains you.

Sermon Series: The Greatest Story Ever Told

The Greatest Story Ever Told begins in a garden, centers on a cross, ends in a city, and invites us to find our place within it. It's a story that explains: who we are, why the world is broken, what Jesus came to do, and where history is headed.

The story will be told in a six-week sermon series:

Prologue

The Blueprint: Scripture’s Authority & The Great Story

Act I

Creation: Design & The Creator King

Act II (THIS SUNDAY)

Fall: Vandalism & The Promised Seed

In Genesis 3:1-24, we see that sin vandalized God's good creation and broke our fellowship with God. But wait! We'll also see the very first promise of grace in Genesis 3:15, which is a prophecy about Jesus! The Story of Redemption is also your story, so get to know it well!

Act III

Redemption: The Rescuer on the Cross

Act IV

Restoration: The Renewal of All Things

Epilogue

The Sent Church: Living Out the Grand Story

Join us for worship this Sunday at 10 AM. If you are homebound or traveling, click here to watch our 10 AM Sunday Livestream.
