Join us Sunday at 9:30 in Osage City and 11 in Reading as we continue in our series "The Building Blocks of Faith." This week we'll be talking about the role of Scripture in our lives for comfort, challenge, decision making, and more. I know that sometimes scripture has been used in ways that tear down and do harm rather than to uplift. My prayer is that if that is you, you will come and find comfort and new perspectives on how scripture can make a difference in our lives.
