Upcoming Sermons 

Sundays in Lent: Insights of the Wilderness
During the weeks of Lent, we will follow the Hebrews through the Red Sea out into the desert where they learned to walk by faith.  Sooner or later our pilgrimage through life leads us into a barren place. But it is there that our spiritual character is best formed, and we find the faith we need to cross the Jordan into the Promised Land.
