SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (It's Against My RELATIONSHIP To Have A RELIGION!)



Wk1 - I'm Fine With God... It's Christians I Can't Stand!

What does CHRISTIANITY mean to you?
What does COMMUNITY mean to you?
What does RELIGION mean to you?
What does RELATIONSHIP mean to you?

Imagine if CHURCH was a place where you could come and be accepted for WHO you were! A place where you could come and people actually cared enough about YOU that - when they told you the truth - THEY DID IT IN LOVE!! THEY DID IT WITH GRACE!! There wasn’t anyone trying to tear you down – you knew you could go home without any fear that someone may talk about what you said or how you looked that day! In essence – the CHURCH was a place where ALL they did was BUILD YOU UP!! Imagine a place where anytime you made a mistake or you offended somebody else - that it was met with FORGIVENESS and ACCEPTANCE!


THE CHURCH IS NOT AN INSTITUTION -

IT'S AN ORGANISM!


-We go to INSTITUTIONS to be SERVED!

-ORGANISMS exist by SERVING EACH OTHER!


Don't miss the first week of this NEW SERIES!
