A Message from Pastor Austin
Changed

 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:
The old has gone, the new is here!
2 Corinthians 5:17

Jesus never changes but He does change us. I hope you enjoy this beautiful video by Vail Health about our friend Jack who is forever changed.
Join us Sunday as we wrap up our sermon series
"Adapting to Change."
I can't wait!
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
