Many view the Bible as restrictive, oppressive, and irrelevant, while others love it, live by it, and hear God through it.

Maybe you heard the Bible offers hope for life, but do you struggle to experience it? Or maybe someone told you that reading the Bible will improve your marriage, family, or finances, but ever since you started reading it, your life seems to be falling apart.

If reading the Bible has left you confused or frustrated, you are not alone.

Join us as we continue our Between The Lines series and delve into practical steps to read the Bible more effectively, understand its context, and apply its teaching to transform ourselves and touch lives.

ABOUT OUR CURRENT SERIES: “Living Lightly”
In a world burdened by pressures and heaviness, we sometimes find ourselves seeking solutions that leave us even more hopeless than when we began. This series is a challenge to embrace Jesus’s way, which shows us that real rest, freedom, and a life of influence are often found in embracing the right tensions instead of letting go of them.

We all look forward to living peacefully and lightly. But life isn’t always perfect. We don’t always feel strong or hopeful. Maybe you are experiencing pain in the form of loss, illness, depression, grief, suffering, or something along those lines.

But God wants to remind you that His grace is sufficient for you! Even if you are alone or depressed, even if you are battling pain or illness, even if you do not have enough money.

How is God’s grace sufficient? How is His comfort and power abundant for you?

Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let us understand how to live lightly even amidst trials and pain. Let us together understand how God’s presence never leaves us…even when you feel lost.

Living lightly is sometimes about an internal peace that surpasses understanding. But sometimes, our sense of heaviness comes from our loved ones.

When people around you are being hurt, do you know how much to help? Do you know how to appropriately share their burdens? Do you have boundaries knowing that they are responsible for their life to an extent?

Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let us learn from Jesus how to embrace these tensions as Christians and find a balance between burdens and boundaries.

Are you haunted by voices of guilt from the past? Are you weary of people judging you or others? Do you question the role of religion in people's lives?

Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let’s learn from the Bible, how we can place our past and burdens into God's hands and live a life that is untroubled and light.

Do you ever struggle with balancing work and rest? Are you sometimes confused about when to push and when to pause? Did you ever feel overwhelmed wondering if your pace is right?
We often don’t know how to stop and be still. And if for some reason, we are forced to stop, we try to restart with our own efforts. But trusting God sometimes means moving forward, and other times it means pausing.
Join us today as we continue our Living Lightly series. Together, let’s learn to embrace the right rhythms and tensions of moving with God depending on Him in prayer and in our work, because He is the one who can help us live lightly.
