Todd Jordan
Greetings: 

 

 

In the time between his sentencing and his crucifixion, Jesus underwent unspeakable suffering and humiliation at the hands of the Roman soldiers-both of which they were inhumanely exemplary at. What exactly did they do to Jesus, why did they do it, and why would God allow such a thing? These are questions we will wrestle with this Sunday as we examine the Torture and Humiliation of the King according to Mark 15:15-23.  I look forward to seeing you there as we continue to Walk With Jesus!

                      

 Dr. Todd Jordan,

                         Senior Pastor

New Directions Class Study:  "Respectable sins "

Have Christians become so preoccupied with "major" sins that we have lost sight of our need to deal with more subtle sins? Navigator author Jerry Bridges addresses the "acceptable" sins that we tend to tolerate in ourselves, including pride and anger. He goes to the heart of the matter, exploring our feelings of shame and grief and opening a new door to God's forgiveness and grace. Travel down the road of spiritual formation with Jerry and discover your true identity as a loved child of God."   Come join us in Room 207.
