Current Sermon Series:

God’s truths in the Bible are clear, yet the world we live in is anything but! This makes navigating through life as a faithful follower of Jesus tricky at times, which is why God put the book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible. This unique book helps us in our discipleship by setting realistic expectations, so we can keep our hopes fixed on heaven.
