Have you ever known a professing Christian who seemingly walked away from the faith and a life of following Christ? Most of us would say, yes. Was that person someone you loved?
That dynamic adds weight and urgency to the question, what does their departure mean? Are they still saved? Were they ever saved? Can they lose their salvation?
This week we will tackle the question, "Can a Christian lose their salvation if they walk away from the Lord?" The answer to that question has more to do with Jesus than the person and in that lies our hope for their return.

13 FAQ - Is it wrong to complain to God?
August 28, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • Psalm 13
We live in a world where hard is common and life is frequently punctuated with sorrow. There are seasons, however, where it seems like the darkness will never lift and our heart will never know joy again. In those times we're tempted to question if God understands, if His promises are true and if He cares at all. What are we to do in such times? Are we allowed to give voice to those fears and complaints? This week David, the shepherd King, will teach us to lament and how to turn complaints into praise.
12 FAQ - Loving Accountability in the Church
August 21, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • Matthew 18:15–17
When was the last time someone asked you about your personal struggle with sin? When was the last time you asked someone else about their personal struggle with sin? If it's been a while, that's a problem. The Scriptures tell us that all sin is common and that it's common to the human condition to struggle with sin. Therefore, we know that we all struggle. It's one of the reasons why we need one another as desperately as we do. This week we will talk about the loving necessity of accountability within the Body of Christ and the importance of a church-wide commitment to lovingly pursue, confront, and restore struggling and erring believers.
11 FAQ - How can Romans 8:28 be true in a world full of pain?
August 14, 2022 • Pastor Doug Forman • Romans 8:28–29, Psalm 44:6–22
We live in a world of hurt and we'd all be tempted to write out the hardest parts of our story, if we could. But, what if there were a God who promises to redeem those hardships for good in the life of those who trust in Him? That would change everything. That's exactly what our God has done for us. This week we're going to consider the question, "In a world of pain, how does God work everything for good?" It is our hope that through this consideration you'll see a sovereign God faithfully at work redeeming your trauma, disappointments, pain, and heartaches for maximum good.
