Something about the Holy Week is so refreshing. It takes our focus off of church and onto Christ.

Hope to see many of you today or tomorrow at Sunset. 4pm, 6:30pm on Saturday and 9 and 11am on Sunday.

3. Ministry in a dying (literally) church.
4. Desmond Tutu says “we don’t need to prove ourselves to God.”
5. Jay on spiritual warfare during Easter weekend.
