Pastor Chris Seay taught through Isaiah 25, and continued laying the
groundwork for our ongoing response following this challenging time for so

in our city, the first-responders who worked tirelessly and selflessly
through the storm, and our brothers and sisters in Puerto Rico following

November 06, 2017 The Holy City of Houston: A Theology of Place
Pastor Chris Seay examines what it looks like to be a Houstonian Christian

of Houston. This week, we examine 5 lessons we can learn from the Astros
World Series run. As we experienced last week, there are a lot of baseball
metaphors.

weeks; our plan for the coming months as we continue to commit our time,
energy, and resources to faithfully love and serve those most impacted by
this hurricane season. This week was a reminder of our "job description" as
a people in Christ; our commitment to love God with all our heart, soul,
strength, and mind, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. There are also a
lot of baseball metaphors.
