Beginning September 12th, a new sermon series will get started entitled 'Developing The Disciple'. It is a 6-week story designed to help you understand yourself as a disciple of Christ as well as consider the process of those around you as they learn to know and love God better each day. It is a biblically-based series inspired by Pastor Joe's mentor, Rev. Dan Glover, who wrote the book Deepening Your Effectiveness. We invite you to join us Sunday at 9:00 or 10:30. Our story starts with a beautiful day strolling the beach. The chair in the picture is yours.
