What is the purpose of the church?  Why do I have to be part of a church?  Isn’t my relationship with God between God and me?  What is the church’s role in the modern world?

In a body, every part is important and has it’s own purpose. When something good or bad happens to one part of the body, the rest of the body feels it. When one part of the body is weak and sick or strong and healthy it impacts the rest of the body.

Families are where we are loved and cared for. Families are where we learn and mature. Families grow and expand.

A light shines out. It pierces darkness. It illuminates what is hidden. It marks direction and reveals the path.

James & John represent those who quickly and eagerly accept the invitation of Jesus. At the same time they are a great example of recognizing that there are sacrifices to be made when choosing to follow Jesus, and the wise person counts those costs up front.

The church is established with a presence, purpose and passion.
