We’re a community of broken people seeking to grow in faith, hope, and love. All of us have real problems. Each of us is a work in progress. Yet, our hope is that through worship, prayer, friendship, and service, we can grow together into the community of love that God has created us to be.
Are you looking for answers in the midst of suffering or confusion? Do you hunger to belong to a community of love and service? Are you curious to find out how Jesus Christ has changed the lives of other people just like you? If so, come and meet us. We would love to show you the path that leads to forgiveness, peace, joy, and hope.
I think there is something we should learn from Jesus’ predilection for obscurity. It’s this: don’t expect Jesus to publicise his most amazing works. Jesus is not an influencer, and He’s not a celebrity. He has no interest in gathering a mere “following”. Jesus is after disciples, and growing disciples is a much more personal and involved work than is building a following.
Perhaps this is what some of us need today: not chasing after the wind with more activity done in our strength, but ears to hear where the wind of the Spirit is moving, that we can join in with what God is already doing in our communities and among our friends and family
God does not permit pain in our lives so that we can tap out, but so that we can dig in. The pain is purposeful: It’s a call to engage God, not ignore him. Wrestlers are not meant to hide from pressure; they are meant to squirm under it. If God puts His weight on us, we are meant to press back on Him.
