The Gospel & Politics

It goes without saying that politics can be divisive, but how can Christians do civil engagement in a way that glorifies God? The goal of this class is not that all Christians would share the same political views, but that you will be equipped to engage with politics in light of the gospel.

He invites us to “Life MORE Abundantly.” We will have a time to refresh, hear from God’s word, fellowship, and impact the lives of others in our community! You won’t want to miss it!

A Servant of Christ


Climbing Angel Publishing is making available Single Sermon Books from our Pastors. A new one by Author James Lynch asks three crucial questions to help us explore where we are along the path to obedience.


1) Do you have a proper view of sin?

2) Do you practice a biblical faith?

3) Do you live in humble dependence?


Using these questions as the outline for the text, Pastor James explores Luke 17:1-10 where Jesus shares what it takes to be His servant. Pick up a copy for a donation of $3 in the Welcome Center or Hub Cafe.
