New Series on Bible to begin in Worship
September 7 – February 22: The Essentials – Packing our Biblical Backpack
Every hiker knows you don’t go out into the wilderness, even for a day, without the “essentials” – map, compass, first-aid kit, fire-starter, etc. In the same way, we can ask, “What are the essential biblical stories or passages that today’s Christian travelers need to know, or carry in their “biblical backpack?” Through the course of the fall and winter, we will look at 18 passages that cover the basic biblical story line of the Christian faith. These are stories we should know by heart– not by rote, but by heart.

can believe in winter? In winter
who could have hoped for this?
