Acts 13:1-3Acts 13:1 In the Antioch congregation were prophets and teachers — Bar-Nabba, Shim‘on (known as “the Black”), Lucius (from Cyrene), Menachem (who had been brought up with Herod the governor) and Sha’ul. 2 One time when they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Ruach HaKodesh said to them, “Set aside for me Bar-Nabba and Sha’ul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 After fasting and praying, they placed their hands on them and sent them off.

Kingdom Culture
Wednesday Nights this Fall

Starting September 14

Join Pastor Tara Beth Leach on Wednesday nights this fall as she leads PazNaz through her curriculum Kingdom Culture: The Sermon on the Mount. This series begins September 14 at 6:30 pm in Lee Chapel.
The Sermon on the Mount is nestled into the Bible's grand narrative and gives the reader a glimpse of what it looks like to live in the already-but-not-yet Kingdom of God. The words of Jesus are piercing, and push the people of God to live the Kingdom life. After studying the Sermon on the Mount, you will discover that Jesus is the ultimate authority for the life of the disciple, and as the people of God, the invitation is to embody the culture of God's Kingdom.
Regular Wednesday evening programming will also be available for children, students, and those with special needs. Contact Melody Bundy with questions at 626.351.2425.
