READ & Community
Please read with us:
Week of Mar. 6: John 9
If you would like a useful online tool for reading the bible, we recommend Bible Gateway: www.biblegateway.com
Community Group Resource of the Week:
In the first video, "Forgotten Ways" author Alan Hirsch speaks on the topic of cultural distance and the problem it creates for meaningful communication of the gospel. The second video deals with the five-fold ministry of Ephesians 4. Alan argues that we will never create or sustain a movement until the church recaptures the role of the Apostle, Prophet and Evangelist.
