People don’t want to come to a friendly church. What they want is to come to a church where they have friends. That is why we continually say, 'Life is better Connected!' If we are going to be a church 'where friends become family,' then we must do everything we can to join and embrace our vision, 'Building Relationships that connect all people to God-sized life and love.'

What does it mean to value the next generation? How do you do that and not devalue the current or older generations? Is just having youth and children programs enough?

We have studied 1 and 2 Peter this summer, letters written by Peter to a church that is suffering because of their devotion to Christ. And what have we heard Peter say all through this? To get through today, keep focused on that Day – the day Jesus is revealed to all the world, the day we begin our transition to Eternity. Peter was telling a group of believers in 66 A.D. to hang on, Jesus is coming. What are we supposed to think 1952 years later? Let’s read 2 Peter 3.
