This plan is about how God is going to redeem the world that has been broken by sin. After sp...

Families of all shapes and sizes are a gift from God. And family life in all of its stages is equal parts wonder, joy and love and really hard all at the same time. Learning to honor and handle emotions in our families is important work and can be an opportunity for spiritual transformation. But there is almost no other situation in which emotions tend to run so high. How does God want us to navig...

How shall we use life and time through the fleeting hours that we have them? What will w...

Wrapped up in that question are several questions that our teaching team hopes to answer during this next teaching series: I...
