It is 2019. Is faith even a thing anymore? If so, what does it mean to be a person of faith? Glenn Balzer looks at Hebrews 11:1-3, 29-12:2.
Priorities
Glenn Balzer preaches from Luke 12:13-21 which calls us to be a people of generosity, love, and selflessness.
To be Clay in the Potter's Hand
Zach Martinez preaches from Jeremiah 18:1-10. In 2017, the Washington Post reported that, given declining trends in church attendance, the mainline Protestant Church has 23 years until its attendance is effectively zero. How does the Church confront this information with hope? Is it possible that hope doesn't mean everything turns out "okay"?
