Who are you? Choosing Sides
We love the Fall Festival that happens this weekend. Keep in mind that this does affect parking on Sunday so give yourself extra time to get to church and to park. We ask that those who are able consider parking further away, reserving the parking lot and nearby spots for those who have difficulty walking.
Rev. Matt Gough

If you cannot join us in person you can always be with us through Internet Streaming.

Choosing Sides
These days many people assert their identity by declaring what side they are on. There are so many sides to choose from! Often, one side or the other declares that God is on their side. Scriptures can be used to support just about any position. During the Civil War many declared that “God is on the side of the North” or “God is on the side of the South.” President Abraham Lincoln only said:
“Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.”
The practice of hearing God’s direction and letting it transform us is our daily faith practice.
