THE HAMILTON SERMON SERIES CONTINUES!

Alexander Hamilton led a remarkable life. A Caribbean immigrant born into poverty to unwed parents, he was orphaned at the age of 12 along with his brother James. Two years later the boys' legal guardian committed suicide. Shortly afterwards a hurricane devastated his home island of St. Croix. How could this boy, who endured such incredible hardship, end up a Founding Father of our country? The story that follows is one of faith, grace, forgiveness and God's power to transform. Join us for this revealing sermon series as we explore the unlikely life of Alexander Hamilton as told in Kevin Cloud’s book, God & Hamilton.

MID-YEAR FINANCIAL UPDATE

Looking for some interesting reading this summer? Then check out the novel we will be discussing next, The Dovekeepers, by Alice Hoffman. This one will not disappoint! Nearly two thousand years ago, nine hundred Jews held out for months against armies of Romans on Masada, a mountain in the Judean desert. According to the ancient historian Josephus, two women and five children survived. Based on this tragic and iconic event, Hoffman’s novel is a spellbinding tale of four extraordinarily bold, resourceful, and sensuous women. And perhaps just a nice little escape from the current, daily struggles. We are hoping to gather in person on Monday, September 14 at 7pm on Michele Leonard's patio. We will firm that plan up as we get closer. Till then, get reading!

Please join us from your home as we study the Book of Judges. The book of Judges cracks a window into depths of the human soul. Watch a nation struggle with its identity and relationship to its God.

In this series, pastor and author J.D. Greear wades into the book of Judges to shine a light onto the muddy waters of human rebellion. The stories and truths within are not just archaic tales with no relevance for us today. Rather, J.D. works through each chapter unpacking the truth of God’s grace in the midst of human wickedness, and shows how only the divine can redeem the fallen.
