For Such a Time as This?

This group is led by Pastor Madison and is open to everyone in the church and community. Contact Pastor Madison for the Zoom info.

2024 is an election year, which comes with many challenges. The news cycle is constantly reminding us of the hostility and ugliness of American politics. Social media becomes a seemingly inescapable battleground. We can't sit around the dinner table with certain family members. Even those of us in the church have a difficult time respecting our congregations' diversity of political opinions. How can we stay connected when our world is so divided? How can we exercise our convictions with compassion? What are the best practices for handling election-related stress and anxiety? The purpose of this group is to equip members of our church and community to model healthier practices for monitoring and maintaining their faith commitments, mental health, and personal relationships throughout an election year. We will look to scripture and one another for guidance and reassurance that we can engage politics this year with grace, hope, and love.


Faith and Forgiveness Study

Mondays | April 8-May 13 | 6-7:30 pm | Room 100/ On Tap (200 N. Mesquite St.)

Easter Sunday is just the beginning of the Easter season. Join Pastor Madison for an Easter study covering the topic of Faith and Forgiveness. The story of Easter reminds us that our sins are forgiven through Christ's life-giving teachings, his sacrificial death, and his glorious resurrection. And, we as Christians are taught to forgive others their sins just as ours have been forgiven.

But what does forgiveness look like in practice? Is forgiveness really necessary to heal and move on? What if we find it impossible to "forgive and forget?" Does forgiveness always include reconciliation? How many second chances do we allow others who continue to cause us harm? Is there such a thing as an unforgivable sin? How can we learn to accept forgiveness from others? How do we learn to forgive ourselves our own sins?

These are some heavy topics! At 6:45, we will transition to a more casual setting. Those who are interested are welcome to head across the street to On Tap (200 N. Mesquite St.), where you can purchase an alcoholic or nonalcoholic beverage to enjoy as we continue the discussion and fellowship for another 20 or so minutes.
