Summer Preaching Series Continues
I Don’t Believe That: Christian concepts you might not believe or understand
Join us this summer as we preach about all those things you struggle with; refuse to believe; feel bad about not believing; or don’t understand — because it might not make sense.
July 1 Grace: Where does it come from? How do you get some? How does it change me?
July 8 Hell: Is there or not? Where is it or not? Who says or not?
July 15 Resurrection: What happened? Why? (Rev. Ute Schmidt preaching)
July 22 Virgin Birth
July 29 The Rapture: What is it? Who believes it? What happens to pets anyway?
August 5 The Creeds: Who wrote them? What do they claim? How does the UCC regard them?
August 12 Healing and Miracles: Are they real? Why would you believe? How do they work?
August 19 Creation/Evolution: What about dinosaurs? Who cares? What does the Bible do with science?
Sermon Talk Back Time
Join our new program to talk with the pastor and others about the sermon you just heard. Ask questions about the process of creating a sermon. Ask questions about theology. Ask questions about translations. Ask questions
about belief. Share your feelings. Share your doubts. Share your faith journey.
For 30 minutes, from 11:30 am – noon, you have the chance to be in conversation with others about what you just experienced.
Grab a cup of coffee, a cookie and come into Lower Level Room 1.
