It’s been a week to sorely try the Spirit. We have been shaken to our core. That which we thought “could never happen here” happened, as a sitting president incited a riot to storm the halls of Congress to interrupt the lawful transfer of power. It’s the kind of thing that makes you mad, sad, scared and in need of a word of truth and hope. That’s what God is anxious to give us all this Sunday. “Arise, Your Light is Come!” Please join us at 10 a.m.
