Sermon Series: The Way
God’s mission to redeem and restore creation through His people exponentially grew when He indwelled His people with the Holy Spirit, creating the church! Known simply as Followers of the Way, the earliest Christians show us the essence of what Christ has redeemed us to be as a growing biblical community.

Woe To You
In one of the greatest take-downs ever, Jesus confronts the Pharisees, resulting in what is known as The Seven Woes. Throughout history, Christians have loved Jesus for His raw and spot-on exposure of the hypocrisy and callousness that often comes with high levels of authority. Less popular, however, is turning the mirror on ourselves. The truth about us is that modern-day Christianity has regressed into an often judgmental, unfeeling dogma. This week, we put the spotlight on ourselves and wonder if Jesus might say to us, "Woe to you."
