Join Us Sunday

From the moment we are born, expectations are placed on us that seep into the identities we take on. If Jesus was assured of His identity before He set out to live into His purpose, how much more do we need the same?

In an age where men and women seem to be pitted against each other or pushed into stereotypes, we want to uplift the beautiful harmony that can be achieved when tradition and cultural expectations are put in their proper place and God’s vision for manhood and womanhood is elevated!

Life is cyclical: we enter the world relying on the care and love of others, and we end our time on earth needing the same. How do the roles of parents and children teach us about God, regardless of our age? We’ll explore the Bible to see the power of seeing yourself as a child of God!

Our kids and students are asking hard questions about God, faith, life, and culture—and are often turning to the internet or their friends for answers. As the church, how can we be a safe space for questions and point to God’s wisdom for answers? Questions Our Kids Are Asking will help us do just that!

Election seasons are tense and have the potential to divide us, yet we are called to demonstrate love that shows no partiality. Not only that, we see a biblical call to pray for our elected officials (which can feel like a challenge at times). So what would you pray? The Bible shows us the character traits required for effective leadership that we can pray for our leaders and our own lives!

God loves everyone…and so should we! When you experience the love of Jesus, you begin to see His heart for all people, the vulnerable, and even your enemies. During these three weeks, we’ll explore God’s heart for compassion and justice and see how we can play a part right where we are. You’ll also get the chance to assemble Hope Packs and send a gift to every incarcerated person in Illinois!
