It's Better

For a generation searching desperately for an authentic experience, there's good news: the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence to empower and transform is freely available! We will be tracing the story of the Holy Spirit as it unfolds throughout the Bible, and inviting believers to close the gap between what Scripture reveals about the Holy Spirit and their lived experience. 
 
Come and join us as we unpack scripture and understand how both Word and Spirit (too often separated in some church traditions) work together to draw people into a vibrant, intimate knowledge of God. Come and get more deeply acquainted with the Person and work of the Holy Spirit--and experience his transformative, life-giving power in your lives!

Join us, as we  explore the parable of the Prodigal Son.  We discover a process of change that applies to each of us and a healing journey that moves us toward the likeness of the Father in how we love the people around us and address the pain others have caused us.

Process of Elimination

Why endings?  Whether we like it or not, endings are a part of life.  They are woven into the fabric of life itself, both when it goes well, and also when it doesn’t.  Life has seasons, stages, and phases.  For there to be anything new, old things have to end, and it’s hard to let go.  Growth itself demands that we move on. Without the ability to let go, we stay stuck.  Some of our behaviors and destructive patterns and practices can hold us back.  Endings are not only part of life; they are a requirement of living and thriving.
