Sunday's At Journey

Esther: When God Feels Hidden
We will be finishing up our quick (4 Weeks) look at the book of Esther in February.
It invites us to ask a couple of really important questions:
  1. How should a follower of God relate to an often hostile culture; withdraw, protest, embrace?
  2. How do you follow God in morally and spiritually and culturally ambiguous situations when you’re kind of flying blind and you really don’t even know what the right thing to do is?
Today's Sermon - Sunday Feb 26th - Rest From Our Enemies
Last Sunday's Sermon - Sunday Feb 19th - The King's Man
