Why Church?

In the ever-divisive world we live in, people will ask: Why church? Why do you go to worship? Why are you a Christian? Why do you join?

This summer we want to explore those deep questions and see what the wisdom of scripture and tradition have to offer. Come hear the perspective you might be missing. Come ask big questions. Come wrestle with the why behind membership, evangelism, worship, service, small groups, and prayer. Join us as we ask together:
