God’s Gospel Writes a New Story
This Sunday, we will worship the Lord together for his glory. Through song, the prayers of God’s people and the Word of God, we’ll focus on the joy of the gospel of Christ. Pastor Jim Renke will lead us through Galatians 1:11-2:10. As we look at Paul’s story, we see how this divine gospel helps create new stories for us and unites us with God’s people through the ages.
