Sunday March 10: “Rooted: Fasting” Matthew 6:16-18
By Bill Flavin, Lead Pastor

 Growing up I had a narrow picture of fasting: don’t eat food for some period, which as a student sounded challenging.  In Matthew 6 and all over scripture we get a rich picture of fasting as an opportunity to grow closer to God, to challenge the status quo in our lives, and dig deeper into prayer.

Sunday June 22: Abraham: Names, Detours, and Discernment Series: “Next Faithful Step” Genesis 12:1-9

When God steps into Abram’s life he has a big ask and promise for him. God promises to make a great nation out of his family. The ask: leave his lucrative life, pack up what he can travel with and head out that way. No clear sense of his final destination, just pack up, and start moving. Take the next faithful step, trusting that God will reveal the next step on the way to the first one.
