Living as God’s Children

The Last Hour - Why must we be diligent to follow after King Jesus, to obey him even in the face of worldly opposition? The reason, John says, is that it is “the last hour” and “many antichrists have come.” With these two statements, John raises a number of questions—especially for American Christians who have been raised on popular end times theology in books and movies. This week, we’ll explore what John means by these statements and where they position us in the outworking of God’s redemptive plan for the world. Join us this Sunday as we consider 1 John 2:18-27.

A Faith for All Seasons - Are you growing and maturing in your faith? Does your faith have the strength to weather the different challenges unique to the different seasons of life we all go through?

Join us this Sunday as we explore 1 John 2:12-17.
