Simply Surrender

Sunday, February 1
Join us for a new Sunday morning class: Simply Surrender! Christ’s mindset was one of complete and constant surrender to the Father. It was his "joy" to do so, and through his submission, he secured salvation for all who believe. This same resolve now serves as our model as disciples of Christ in how we relate to the Father and His Church.
Simply Surrender – Elevation through Submission, Reward through Surrender, Sanctification through Death  
  • When: Sundays in February
  • Time: 9:00-10:00am
  • Where: Room 8
  • Led by: Mickie Krish
