Immanuel

Servant
December 7, 2014 • Derek Macleod

November 16, 2014 • Steve Eason
Discover the many alternatives to being alone and isolated, and find out why God created us to live in community.
Gold

Manna

Ponder how God’s providential love can be seen in the abundance of manna provided to the Israelites in the wilderness and to us today.
Wilderness

Israel
October 5, 2014 • Steve Eason
Deepen your understanding of Israel as more than a geographical location. Israel is a state of mind, a people, a heritage with God. Israel is the story of divine intervention and love. Israel is our story.
Laugh

See why divine intervention is not always rational and the desire to laugh has been shared by everyone from Abraham to Moses.
Covenant
September 21, 2014 • Steve Eason
Examine why God has chosen to be bonded to us in covenant. Why God’s love never fails. And why even when we rebel and stray, God remains faithful.
