New Bible Basics Class

In Adam Hamilton's Making Sense of the Bible, you are invited into an honest conversation about the Bible. We begin with foundational questions such as, how and when was the Bible written? Who decided which books made it and why? How literally must we read it? And, is the Bible ever wrong? In approachable and inviting language, we will try to address these often misunderstood biblical themes leading readers to a deeper appreciation of the Bible so that we might hear God speak through it and find its words to be life-changing and life-giving.


Classes begin on
Sunday, July 2, 11AM, in the Office Conference Room and on Zoom.



New Bi-weekly Faith Connection Group

Join us to discuss We Make the Road by Walking by Brian McLaren. This book's 52 readings will guide us through growing our faith together. Each chapter is 3–4 pages. If you are seeking a faith connection, come.

The book can be purchased on Amazon.

We'll meet bi-weekly, beginning
Sunday, July 2, 11AM, at the Boone Station Gazebo.



Jammies & Jesus

Start your Sunday with a dish of Sunshine! Join Pastor Randy and Ms. Kat for Jammies and Jesus. We will gather on Zoom, 8AM, to pray and play as we have a bowl of cereal and remember that this is the day that the Lord has made! Before heading out to the ballfield/pitch/field or while you get ready to worship, start your day with fifteen minutes of fellowship and fun.
