Coming Soon: NEW Season of Church Podcast
During our previous sermon series, "The Heart for the Not Yet", we received some questions that we decided needed to be answered. Starting on Thursday, July 9 we are launching a new season of our church podcast, "Grace Filled Conversations." The topics include dinosaurs, death, and evil. If you are interested in hearing more about these topics, download the church app today to listen on July 9 or go to the church website here.
