Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! We hope you will join us as we celebrate our Risen Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. At the empty tomb, we find the passion of Christ burst forth in glorious day! For up from the grave He arose triumphant over His foes. As we reflect on this day it not only gives us hope for today it provides hope for the future. For like Jesus we too will rise again. So, have you heard? Jesus Christ is risen today! Hallelujah!
As we continue with our Places of the Passion Sermon Series, we find ourselves at Golgotha (the place of the skull) or we may know it as Calvary (Latin meaning skull). The cross is never easy. It is repulsive and ugly. A symbol of the worst kind of torture, injustice, and brutality. And yet it is the central symbol of our faith. Join us as we venture to the cross and find there faith and love intersecting and announcing triumph.
Do you know what most people are doing during these uncertain times? They are making home improvements. While we are all making improvements in our living environments, the Lord draws us to make spiritual improvements. Come let us enter into worship and see the transforming work of God in our lives as we surrender to His plan.
This week, we continue by talking about what we believe and a look at the Apostle's Creed. Our focus today will be on the next two stanzas, “the communion of the saints and the forgiveness of sins.” These are two important beliefs of a follower of Jesus Christ because, in them, we find we are set free from the bondage of sin and enter a family that is as numerous as the stars.
