Have you ever felt that God is far away from you? Where is God today? And how do we know? This Sunday we’ll see Christ promise his presence with his people—and how we can see the evidence of it!
What’s the big deal about Jesus becoming a human? What significance does this really have for our lives? Let’s discover the depth and meaning of what Christ has done for us in becoming human.
We will continue to explore our Advent sermon series on God's presence with us. This Sunday, we explore Exodus 40:34-38 and witness God’s holy presence filling the tabernacle. We will discover the rhythms of life shaped by His guidance and reflect on what it means when the God of glory chooses to dwell among us.

Do Christians have to agree about everything? How should we respond when we don’t see eye-to-eye about how to apply God’s word? What’s worth fighting for, and what’s better to just agree to disagree? Sunday’s passage in Romans will consider these questions and more.
This Sunday we dive back into our Romans series. We’ll consider how to live holy lives in light of the gospel.
