THE POWER OF WEAKNESS

"The Power of Thorns"

February 20, 2022

2 Corinthians 12:1-10

Deeply_Rooted_branding_enews.jpg

DEEPLY ROOTED KICKOFF: THIS SUNDAY! FEBRUARY 20 | 11:00 AM | WORSHIP CENTER


When walking though a forest, it's easy to be impressed by the majesty of the trees towering above you. But perhaps even more impressive is something you can't see: the complex system of roots beneath the ground that support and nourish the tree. The same is true of the Christian life. When you see someone thriving, filled with love, joy, and peace regardless of their circumstances, you can be sure that beneath the surface, their spiritual life is supported by a deep connection with Christ. They are deeply rooted.


Beginning this Sunday, February 20, our Grow Groups will be going through a nine-week experience called "Deeply Rooted" that is designed to strengthen and deepen your faith. Through brief, daily devotions, weekly Grow Group conversations, and several unique experiences, you will have the opportunity to extend your roots deeper into Jesus, enabling you to thrive, no matter what is happening around you.


For more information, check out the INTRO VIDEO.


If you aren’t in a Grow Group yet, it’s not too late! You can join one of our existing groups at vrbc.net/grow. If you’d like to experience "Deeply Rooted" but aren’t ready to join a group in person, you can also register for an online "Deeply Rooted" group at that same link. If you are already in a group, begin praying now that God would use this season to strengthen and deepen your faith and to bless our church!
