A Hebrew fisherman. A prostitute. A woman caught in adultery. A blind man, a paralytic, a leper, and even a dead man. They came from different backgrounds, but each one left their interaction with Jesus changed forever. As we will learn this summer, it's impossible to stay the same after Meeting Jesus.

There may be someone in your life who needs you to offer them a fresh start, a clean slate by forgiving them. You have the power to lift incredible burdens off of people’s shoulders, to be like Christ.

September 13th, 2009 - December 20th, 2009

Everything hinges on your view of God.  Is He a good God?  Can you trust Him?  Is He all-powerful?  Does He love you when you screw up or does He want to crush you?  Will He provide what you need?  Does He care about the wrong that has been done to you?  Will He judge you in the end?  Can you know Him?  From September to December, we will investigate this all-important topic, so that we might truly understand who God Is...

June 7th, 2009 - August 9th, 2009

"How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver" (Proverbs 16:16).  Knowledge is important, and morality is essential, but without wisdom, even the smartest, most moral person can make a mess of his life.  This summer, we will look at the book of Proverbs, applying ourselves to the study of wisdom, so that we might discover what it means to be competent with regards to the realities and complexities of life.

How do you know your faith is the real deal?  Are you sure you really know God?  Do you have confidence that you will be in heaven when you die?  The apostle Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 13:5, 'Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you-- unless, of course, you fail the test?' In that spirit, during this five week series we will be looking at John's first letter in the New Testament, understanding what true, saving faith really looks like, so that we might all, God-willing, pass the test.
