Finding Our Way Forward (Page 4)
As we re-enter life after the pandemic, and as the church re-invents itself for the new normal, what kind of people do we want to be, and does the world need us to be? Our culture is increasingly suspicious of, resistant to, and even hostile toward institutional Christianity. What can we learn from the early believers about practicing “the way of Jesus” in a way that opens people’s hearts to the good news of life with God?
Check out our spring teaching series Finding Our Way Forward.
