DIFFERENT

Church Life Series September 10, 2017 - May 20, 2018.

We must be different to make a difference.

UNSHAKEABLE VIRTUE

Different Series 6: We end our Different church life series with a foundational component of the Christian life; the call to Unshakeable Virtue. Virtue is the bedrock upon which the entire Christian life is built.

DECLUTTER

Different Series 5: During this Lenten season we explore the things in our lives that may divert our attention from Christ. The "stuff" in our life, physically and spiritually, that can be a roadblock or distraction from knowing and pursuing our Divine purpose.

IN/DIFFERENT - THE LOVE APOLOGY

Different Series 3: The most distinct component of the early church was also its most powerful argument for the validity of the gospel - the church's extraordinary capacity to love.  In loving our Lord, our church, our neighbor, and our enemy, we live our most important difference.

A GENEROUS MARRIAGE

Different Series 1:  Marriage provides us with our most intimate earthly relationship.  How do Christians distinctively practice marriage?  How do we determine if marriage is for us?  Are we different enough?
