    Falling in Love - Palm Sunday

    Falling in Love - Palm Sunday

    When we are in the falling-in-love stage of a relationship, it is all about ourselves. It is how the other person makes us feel. We are called to follow God beyond that phase and into a deeper relationship, one that focuses on the service of the other. Today we witness Jesus come into the Holy City of Jerusalem and we celebrate he comes not to do what we desire, but what we need from God instead. Please join us at 10:00am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online at the link below. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

    Die to Self

    Die to Self

    esus's words in John 12 call us to die to self in order to glorify God. This is much harder than it seems in our very individualistic and selfish culture. To live, we need to be fed by the one who died for us. Please join us at 10:00am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online at the link below. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

    Uncomfortable

    Uncomfortable

    We get uncomfortable with angry Jesus, the one who uses a whip to kick the money changers and others out of the temple. But this story in the 2nd Chapter of John brings up an uncomfortable question for us...what would Jesus kick out in our worship, in our churches, if he walked through the doors. What have we created that is actually devouring us?Please join us at 10:00am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online at the link below. Thank you again for worshipping with us.
