Join us Sunday as we continue our “Don’t Blink” sermon series, learning from the books of the Bible with low word counts yet high wisdom content. This week, we will be in the book of Jude, a letter with an unflinching message for the church and a clear call to both mercy and discipline.

This Sunday, we continue our “Don’t Blink” series by looking at one of the smallest letters in the New Testament: 3 John. In just a few verses, John gives us three pictures of church life: Gaius, who welcomed others in love; Demetrius, who lived with integrity; and Diotrephes, who made the church about himself. Together, they remind us that the health of the church depends not only on what we believe, but also on how we live together.

Join us this Sunday as we explore 3 John together!

We started the summer off strong at our Summer Kick-Off Carnival! Between the face-painting, dunk tank, games, and delicious hot dogs, we truly had a grand time. 🎪☀️🎨🌭

We want to add an extra note of appreciation to our volunteers for making this happen. There is much joy in witnessing the love of Jesus shared with our community.

Some of the smallest letters in the New Testament carry some of the strongest words for the church. This Sunday, we begin our new series, “Don’t Blink,” with 2 John and a timely question: Is there absolute truth in the world, and how can I proclaim it in a world so divided?
