Pastor Jonathan looks to the life of Paul to explore the question of how we, as Christians, navigate those in-between spaces in life, where everything is confusing and uncertain. We’ll see how God is with us, even in these times, offering abundance and flourishing. 

Join us as Pastor Jonathan ministers to us in the midst of a heavy week of tragedy and heartache. The troubles of this world often pile up on us and become unbearable, but Paul reminds us that we must never lose sight of God, “who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.” 

Join us as Pastor Kevin encourages believers with the truth of where our confidence lies, even when life doesn’t go the way we had hoped.
