Preaching Series – March 2023
Our Lenten journey this year focuses on Christ and His Church. Our theme is:
Lent: Who is this Jesus? What Church do you want? What Church do you need?
During this season, we ware to ask our- selves if we are trying to build a church and ministry based on our wants and desires or if we are pursuing the heart of Christ, if we see and understand what Christ desires in His Church and if we watch how He lived and ministered on this earth. If we search for answers to those questions, hopefully we will seek to conform our desires to His and seek to build a Church in His image. Instead of building a church we want, we will build the church we need—one that glorifies God alone!
