October Sermon Series: The Bride of Christ
This Week: The Power of Connection
Pastor Paul Arnold

 Scripture: Revelation 7:9-12

Preview: At least 30 percent of the global population identifies as Christian. Within that "big tent," there are many ethnicities and cultures, coupled with countless doctrinal variations. But around the globe, we have brothers and sisters in Christ who agree on the important points. The life, death and resurrection of Jesus, who is God's Son, are central to our faith. We are truly connected to children of God all over the world! Join us this Sunday, October 5, as we celebrate "The Power of Connection."

Sermon Series: Defending The Defenseless
This Week: Bridge Over Troubled Water
Pastor Paul Arnold

Scripture: Luke 19:1-9

Some people are isolated and alone because of a situation of their own making. Such was the case with a tax collector named Zacchaeus, whose story is told in Luke 19. He was ostracized by his community because of his own actions. The temptation when we meet folks like him is to say something like this: "You made your own bed; now you have to lie in it." This Sunday, September 21, we will consider a meeting that Jesus had with a man who was hard to like.
