Drawing All Things to God: A Series Around the

Life of Jesus the Christ Join Rev. Kyle in Room 224

at 6:15 p.m. for another Wednesday adult

study option.

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.

Through this series, we will just walk awhile together in our skins and see what comes through.
