Lori and I are traveling to the Covenant (Evangelical Covenant Church) Annual Meeting in Omaha, Nebraska this week. Please pray for 2 things…: 1) That the denomination would be empowered to make biblically courageous and humanly compassionate decisions throughout the week. 2) For the Ordination ceremony on Saturday night where I will be officially ordained by the ECC. You can watch via live steam at 7:30 pm CDT (5:30 pm PST) HERE.

We will be back for church on Sunday when we will continue in our Genesis sermon series!

"The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it." - Genesis 2:15

Upcoming Events

Children's Ministry

This week Rock Kids will be digging into the story of God making bitter water good, found in Exodus 15:22-27. The kids will learn the Bible point "God shows grace so we show grace." Grace is a lot easier to accept than to extend. Most kids have no problem believing that God loves and forgives them, even when they don't deserve it. But when other people are acting hard to love and forgive, passing on God's grace can be challenging. We want to help kids truly immerse themselves in how amazing God's grace for them is, so that they can't help but let it overflow to others.
