There is a biblical character we can all relate with because we’ve all done the same. It’s Jonah, who went west when God told him to go east. We often hear how God directs then do the opposite. What are lessons we can learn which will help us STOP running from God and EMBRACE the life He calls us to live?? See you this weekend and we’ll find out…

Goliath Must Fall
I love our new study, Goliath Must Fall. Gretchen is one of my favorite bible teachers because her love for the Bible is so deep. This week, author Louis Giglio offered this insight: rejected people reject people. He then shared the acceptance we have in Jesus. Jesus loved us so much, accepted us so completely, desired relationship with us so greatly that he endured the cross.
Louis posed an awesome question- are you living for acceptance? Or from acceptance?
Praying we all hear the word of God pointing us to truth: we are invited to live from acceptance!
Love and light, Pastor Heather
