Winter Sermon Series: "City Church"

 

Winter Sermon Series: City Church

We live in a fast-paced, rapidly changing culture that can seem alien to many Christians--and the way that we Christians choose to live can sometimes make us seem alien to our neighbors.  How do we decide what is core to our beliefs?  And how can we appreciate the good things in our culture while hanging on to the gospel?  How can we attend to the harmonies and the dissonances of city, culture, church, and Scripture?  How can we minister to our rapidly growing and developing city in such a way that it will be transformed by the gospel of God’s grace?  In this sermon series we will explore how we are called to minister in the center of our historic downtown to a city and county that are growing exponentially.
