How can you really be free? Actions matter… but are they everything? Paul tells us there’s more to it than just performance. Join us as Special Speaker, Rev. Andrew Vähi from Village of Hope, shows us how real freedom and transformation start somewhere deeper.

We tend to see ourselves and people like us differently than others. In Romans 2, Paul reminds us that God’s fairness means his judgment and his grace are offered freely to all.

Is Life Supposed To Be This Way?

In creation God shows us his power and nature, but what happens if we ignore Him? Paul warns us in Romans 1 not to swap serving the true God for gods of our own creation. Pastor Chad asks us to consider, “What might be distracting us today?”

Have you ever heard the question “If God is real, why doesn’t He reveal Himself?”. Is God hiding? Has our understanding of the universe and how it works eliminated the need for God? Paul has some wisdom in his letter to the Romans that helps us re-approach this question

In Romans 1:16 Paul says he is not ashamed of the gospel, and says it is because the gospel is ‘the power of God.’ What does he mean, and why does it matter?

Paul begins his letter with intentionality. What things are first in his influential letter to the Romans? What first things can we apply today?

The letter to the Romans is a book that has greatly influenced Christian thinking throughout the centuries. What can we learn today from this letter from Paul? Last Sunday we began a journey to hear how God has a call for each one of us.
