Philippians Wrap-Up
Join us Sunday as we look together at Philippians 4. These are timely words from Paul for today. What does it mean for followers of Christ to live in a time of financial and economic uncertainty?

The Lost Letters of Pergamum Book Discussion #2
NOTE: New Date! We will take a break from Genesis on our regularly scheduled Wednesday evening scripture study and discuss Philippians in light of themes from The Lost Letters of Pergamum. If you've read the novel, now's our chance to discuss it together: Wednesday, October 29th, at 7:00 PM (if you haven't joined us for our community dinner, this would be a great week, 6:00 PM).
