Are you looking for a church that wows you? 🤔

What if the real question is: Are you focusing on the right things? ⛪️✨

Sometimes, even if we don’t realize it, we’re looking for more ‘pizazz’ in our church services. 

We want to be *impressed* by the…

Dramatic sermon

Loud music

Number of people in the pews

But here’s the truth ⬇️

>> We should be impressed with what Christ has done for us on the cross and not everything else. <<<

Be impressed with Jesus’ sacrifice, forgiveness of sins, and the Word spoken to YOU. 🙏💬

Jesus came into the world in the humblest way—on a donkey, not a throne. 👑 

Why do we think church has to be any different? 

 Christ is on that altar for you in body and blood. 🍷🍞

Eat and drink, and that's plenty to be impressed with. ❤️
