Letting Go

Matthew 4:1-11

Rewired by Christ

Three times Jesus was tempted by the devil and three times Jesus came out on top. Overcoming temptation and hardships is possible in our lives because Jesus rewires our core and makes us new. Our lives become distinctive and intriguing as we overcome common hardships and temptations in a way that gives hope to others.

Church on the Hill UPDATE:

We are excited that work is nearing completion. We are awaiting the doors and some painting.

Century Construction is the church's liaison to all of the contractors.

Leslie West is the church's liaison to Century Construction.  

Please contact Leslie with any questions or concerns and she will pass them on to the contractor. Email or text is preferred at leslie@wwnash.com or 804-307-3282. With safety as a top priority, the area is a work zone so contractors and their employees should be the only persons in the area.  Century has requested one point of contact for all communications. Any conversation with Century must be handled by Leslie West.

SLASH SIX-WEEK BROWN BAG LENT BIBLE STUDY WILL MEET SUNDAY from 5 – 7 pm starting February 18

We will share a meal (bring your own) around the table and then dig into this new book from Rev. Adam Hamilton. We will plan to meet for 6 weeks from Feb. 18 - March 24 each week during Lent concluding on Palm Sunday.

MORE ABOUT THE BOOK (From Cokesbury)

Jesus came to lift up the lowly. Throughout his ministry to his final days on the road to the cross, we find stories of his relationships with ordinary, flawed, and unexpected people. People just like us. He met, dined, and traveled with people who were not perfect. People just like us. Many of them were struggling, some were outsiders or even outlaws. Maybe they were not all just like us. Whoever they were, from those he healed to the outlaws with him at his crucifixion, Jesus brought the good news of God’s kingdom to those who most needed to hear it.

In Luke: Jesus and the Outsiders, Outcasts, and Outlaws, pastor and bestselling author Adam Hamilton explores the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus as told in the Gospel of Luke. Through Luke’s stories we find Jesus’ care and compassion for all as he welcomes sinners and outcasts. As we study Luke and see Jesus’ concern for those who were considered unimportant, we hear a hopeful and inspiring word for our lives today.
