Christ Church Sunday Preview 1/19/20

Hi Friends,

Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice! Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually! (Psa 105:1-4 ESV)

Small Groups

Our small groups are this week! These groups are a vital part of our community life where we gather in smaller numbers to eat together, study the Bible and pray. You can find out more by grabbing a Small Group Info Card at our Info Table.

Sunday Morning Equip Class

There are questions that we can have, or that can be asked of us, that can set our mind into all kinds of disarray.  Questions like, how could a loving God allow so much suffering, or isn’t Christianity homophobic and hasn’t science disproven Christianity?  But what if these hard questions for the Christian faith were all actually sign posts leading the way into a deeper experience of faith? Come out to this class as we seek to explore hard questions and see how they lead us to Christ. The class will run from 8:45am-9:30am on Sunday mornings and child care will be provided.  You can sign up at http://bit.ly/ccspequip
