Join us in September as well begin our study of “Christianity and World Religions” by Adam Hamilton. Our Bible Study group meets on Wednesday mornings at 10:00AM and we will begin on September 19th, after Pastor Krista returns from medical leave. Pastor and best-selling author Adam Hamilton returns to one of his most popular topics, Christianity and world religions. This new, fully updated book explores four major world religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism—and compares the beliefs of each with those of Christianity. He deals openly and honestly with questions people ask about other religions, such as:

  • Why are there so many different religions?
  • How should Christians view other religions?
  • How is God at work in other religions?
  • What is the fate of those who earnestly pursue God through other religions?

In examining these major world religions and the beliefs of their followers, Hamilton urges us as Christians to build bridges with others so that we might grow in our faith, seek peace in our world, love our neighbors, and find positive ways to share the gospel.

What is Jesus talking about? He calls himself BREAD? What is the significance of this image? Join us as we continue our sermon series on Jesus as the Bread of Life. This week, Jesus calls himself the “Bread sent from Heaven” and the religious leaders listening begin their argument. Join us as we contemplate what it means to be bread for the world.

This Sunday, June 24th!
