Sermon Series: “But I thought…”: The Messy Meeting of Faith and Life
Scripture: Matthew 14:22-33
Sermon: Chaos
Preacher: Rev. Dr. Stephen Heinzel-Nelson
What do you do when your professed faith doesn't quite line up with your lived reality? When you believe in a God who heals but the sickness lingers. When you encounter people who are more Christlike than Christians. When God promises to be near but feels unreachable. This January, join us for our new sermon series "But I thought... The messy meeting of faith and life" as we search for God amidst the confusion and friction of life.
