Your Story, 4/23/23

MESSAGE In Acts 22 and 26, the apostle Paul gave his testimony to two different groups as he was arrested. He explained he went from observant Jew to Christ follower. We all have a story like that to share. In this message, Scott shares his story and has us examine what our own story might be and how we can be prepared to share it.

Joy For You, 12/11/22

Favoritism, 10/2/22

MESSAGE The book of James speaks to the realities of a living faith in Jesus—the kind of roll-up-your-sleeves and get-your-hands-dirty discipleship that is borne out of an authentic relationship with the risen Lord. As we study James during this 11-week series, Faith That Works, we hope to see the connection between faith and works, gain a new perspective, and experience living out the Word in all aspects of life.
