BIBLE COURSE: Session 8 – The Bible concludes with stunning visions of our world perfectly restored. This hope inspires us to share God’s love and truth until we finally arrive home.

BIBLE COURSE: Session 7 – The book of Acts captures the explosive growth of early Christianity. This story continues today as we share the good news of Jesus with our world.

God chose leaders to guide the people of Israel – judges such as Samson and Deborah, and kings such as David and Solomon. Despite God’s help, they didn’t always rule wisely.

God’s Book The Series

Seeing the face of the risen Christ brings peace and assurance. His authority calms our hearts, reminding us that the One who defeated death now rules with compassion and strength. Since His authority is firm, our hope remains strong. And because He is with us, we can move forward confidently, trusting that His resurrection power keeps restoring and renewing us.

Good Friday draws our eyes from ourselves and fixes them on Jesus. At the Cross, we see compassion deeper than sentiment and steadfast in suffering. He does not stand at a distance from human pain; He enters it fully. He bears rejection, abandonment, and He remains.

On Maundy Thursday, we remember Jesus doing much the same. Being present. Showing up. No matter what lay ahead, He stayed at the table. He took bread, gave thanks, and offered Himself in love. In the giving and receiving, His face turned toward His disciples, attentive and faithful.

This Palm Sunday, consider how you might slow down and surrender the distractions—both good and bad—that keep you from seeing what Jesus has done for you. Prioritize time to worship in church where the power and promise of the Cross and resurrection are expressed with joy.
