Welcome to a Year of Putting Down Roots! Throughout the next 12 months we'll explore what it means to put down roots in Christ, in community, in Scripture, in the Christian tradition, in service to our neighbors, and more. Our hope is that these deep roots will help us flourish in the love of God as individuals and as a church, while also empowering us to help others flourish. We will also be putting down physical roots in our first permanent church home around Christmastime! It’s going to be an amazing year. We live-stream every Sunday at 9:30am CT.
