Hope you are well! Last Sunday we studied freedom in the Spirit from Romans 8 at the 9:30 hour and I preached from Ephesians 5:25-33, “You are the bride of Christ.” You can find the sermon audio at the tab above or on FaceBook.
This Sunday we will learn about spiritual gifts from 1 Corinthians 12 at 9:30 and I will preach “the building of Christ” from Ephesians 2 at 10:30. Looking forward to seeing you!
