A Jesus Centered Community of Scripture, Faith, and Grace
Sermons from 2022

We consider the unfair systems in our world and consider how Jesus has treated us unfairly….and how His unfair treatment of us is actually a good thing.
We continue our sermon series about the Great Adventure of our baptized lives. Today we look at our failures and how they are used by God to show us His patience for us.
