The Gospel of Luke - Good News for All People

This book unpacks the beauty of God’s salvation so that it captivates our hearts anew and compels us to share it with all peoples. Join us as God builds his church at Harvest through the Gospel of Luke.

Next Sermon Series - Back to Genesis!

If you’ve ever tuned in to a movie when it was half over, or started watching a TV series toward the end of a season, you know how confusing it can be: you watch a scene that you can tell is important, but you don’t understand why it matters. It’s hard to see the significance of plot twists when you don’t know the plot, or character development when you’re not familiar with the characters. Reading the Bible can be a lot like that: the significance of each part of the Bible is hard to see apart from a clear view of its overall storyline. Thankfully, all the main elements of the Bible’s story are introduced in its earlies chapters, and getting to know these chapters will help us understand everything that follows them.  Join us as we go back to Genesis 12- 24 this Spring at Harvest.”

Discipleship Explored Class

Starts Sunday, April 12, 2026
8:30-9:30 am in Room 113/114


What does it mean to live as a Christian in today's world?
It’s easy to make a list of the things Christians do — go to church, read the Bible, pray, share the gospel — but that doesn’t really tell us much about what the experience of following Jesus is actually like. That’s where Discipleship Explored comes in.
This 8-session series is based on the Bible book of Philippians and is full of human stories from every continent about the reality of being a Christian in today’s world. It invites you on a journey to discover a new way of living, centered on incredible love, intended for everyone, regardless of where you are in your spiritual walk.
Use the link to our email to sign up for the class, ask questions, learn more about the series or just start a conversation.  Contact us and we’ll send you a link to a short trailer about the course.
Discipleship Explored helps followers of Jesus turn up the gospel soundtrack to their lives.
