Join Us Next Week Pastor Philip invites you to join us next Sunday to enjoy his tradition of giving an Unforgettable Message. Enjoy an uplifting message you will not forget along with communion.

All In with Christ Join us April 14th or 15th as we go ALL IN with Christ together as a church. It’s all or nothing ... It’s now or never Kneeling at the foot of the cross of Christ and surrendering to His Lordship is a radical act of dethroning yourself and enthroning Christ as King. We have small groups throughout the week so you can find your place to go ALL IN with Christ. Find a group at goo.gl/QfXJLb today.

Total Forgiveness Have you ever wished you could forgive the way that scripture calls you to? Now is your chance. Join Pastor Brian for a 7-week group focusing on how we completely forgive people. Visit goo.gl/Rfx8uU to learn more. Wednesday, April 4 | 6:00 pm | #10 2nd Street house

Bible 101 Have you ever wondered why different Bible translations say different things? Or, where to start when you go to study the scriptures? Maybe, you want to know where to start when you have questions that need to be answered. These are the types of things Pastor Brian will be going over in his Bible 101 class on April 21st. Learn more at goo.gl/z1zoxR. Saturday, April 21st | 8:30 am | Family Life Center Room 207
