Summer Preaching Series
Stay after worship for prayer and conversation on the book. Pastor David will be leading us in reflecting and discussing Chapter Six - The Chicken or the Egg: Which Comes First?
Read the discussion questions on
p. 141, samples below:
"It is a lot of work to get out of the way and allow that grace to fully operate and liberate" (p.52). When have you gotten in God's way?
"It seems we must both surrender and take responsibility" (p.56). How does this quotation express itself in the ability to dance with a partner? What does this analogy have to say about recovery from addictions?
Don't forget - Audio sermons, PowerPoints and Bible readings from the series are available
online here. |

Community Resilience:
Connect, Adapt & Transform!
Meet Permaculture presenter
Julian Dominic
What is permaculture?
Permaculture, in its simplest form, stems from the words “permanent” and “agricultural”/“culture”. While mimicking the patterns in nature, permaculture is an intentional design language. It seeks to meet human needs through careful ecological planning and regenerative design methods while caring for the earth, her people and always having an abundance to share. A sort-of spicy form of small and large-scale landscaping!
