Scripture: Acts 5:1-10
Message: "Ananias and Sapphira"
Pastor Paul Arnold

There is so much to celebrate and emulate in the example of the early church, but no church setting is perfect. In the fourth part of our five-week series, “Lessons from the Early Church,” we will examine the Apostle Peter’s dramatic response to a case of dishonesty in the church at Jerusalem. Join us this Sunday, June 14, 2026, as we examine the jolting story of Ananias and Sapphira.

Scripture: Acts 3:1-10
Message: The Things We Used To Do
Pastor Paul Arnold

Most of us need some kind of healing. It could be spiritual, physical, financial, relational, or emotional. When we are “lame” in some way, where do we turn and what should we seek? In the third part of our five-week series on the early church, Pastor Paul Arnold will consider the story of a man who sought one kind of blessing and then received something very different. Join us for worship this Sunday, June 7, 2026, as we celebrate Communion together, and examine the exciting possibility of life transformation!
