God loves sinners—and he wants us to say it out loud.

Christians are sinners whom God has mercifully called. Only mercy can explain why Jesus brings people to faith and promises them salvation. Only grace can explain how he calls them to serve as they are able, even in the ministry of the gospel.

Join us for worship this week as we understand how God calls sinners to serve him and learn to say it out loud!
