Seeking: Can These Bones Live?



In the midst of a sea of dried-up, old bones, God asks Ezekiel,

"Can these bones live?" It's a question not of probability, but of possibility.

For us in our world, when it seems there is so much death around, can we see past the damage, the crisis, the signs of decay? Can we find glimmers of God's abundance even in the valley of the shadow of death? That's a good question!

 Watch Sunday's Service Online, Live @ 9:00 AM EDT

 Join us for In-Person Worship @ 10:00 AM

Join us in live, online worship this Sunday at 9:00 am.
