LIVING like Jesus, bringing JOY to God
Imagine . . . What might God do when we fully entrust our lives and resources to him? Dr. Davis Chappell will help us explore the answer to this question during his sermon series will culminate with Commitment Sunday on the weekend of November 9/10. Using three well-loved stories from the Gospel of Luke, Davis will show us how God can do more than we can ask or imagine in our lives and in our congregation.
