Do You Know What Your Talking About?

09/02/07

Rick White

In the last week of "Magnetic", we ask the question, "Do You Know What You're Talking About?" In other words, can you articulate your faith? The Gospel? The Gospel is best heard through our own stories most of the time...because even when the it's our story...it's really HIS story.

Will We Invite Others Along?

08/12/07

Will They Know that God is Real?

07/08/07

Adam Crawford

In week 2 of this sermon series, we take a step back and wrestle with the challenge of Psalm 40:3. Will people know that God is real by our worship? Will they know He is real by our stories? Through testimony and musical worship, we explore how these things are (and should continue to be) true of us. Enjoy this rare full-service of music, scripture and testimony.
