Join us as we dive into a text from the Old Testament. We will be looking at another popular verse that can often be misattributed. We can frequently apply Scripture in many different ways, but is it paramount that we do our best to understand the original meaning of the author as best we can.

“ Good things come to those who wait.”
- Lady Mary Montgomerie Currie (most attributed)

As believers in Jesus we are not promised a perfect life. We are not guaranteed to have everything we've ever wanted in this physical world. Instead, we are promised something even better -- the perfect love of God. The love of God surpasses any earthly possession, and it cannot be destroyed or taken away. Let us live in God's love this week.

“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” - Romans 8:28 (ESV)

Join us this Sunday as we look at another misunderstood passage. There are few verses in the Bible more misunderstood than the one we will be looking at this week. You may not know the exact text, but you have more than likely heard it expressed. 

This week we will be doing something a little different. We are going to be taking a look at some common schools of thought within our faith and how an improper reading of Scripture can influence them.

"At that time Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord gave the Amorites over to the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, 'Sun, stand still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.” And the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, until the nation took vengeance on their enemies'.”

- Joshua 10:12-13a

As a church community there is a tension that we must balance. We are called to love and to reach out to those outside; to be a place that is welcoming and inviting. But at the same time, it is important to protect our church family. We should be eager to welcome those into our community, while simultaneously being aware of what may be causing harm. It can be tricky, but if we approach each situation together as a church, and in prayer with Jesus, surely we can balance this tension well.
 

" For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
- Matthew 18:20

There is nothing more important than love. In 1 Corinthians 13 Paul is going to encourage us to never forget about it. What’s the point of having incredible spiritual gifts, if we don’t have love?

Join us as we begin our new series, "Location, Location, Location". The hope of this series is that we will take the extra time to understand the surrounding circumstances of any given text. We will look at various popular passages and unpack them for the best possible understanding for each. Maybe we haven't been using some verses as well as we could.
