Coffee and Conversation
Please join us this Sunday from 10:15-10:45 a.m. in Cokesbury Hall for Coffee & Conversation. We will watch a short video titled “She” then have a discussion. In the NOOMA film She, Rob Bell takes a look at the feminine qualities of God. We often focus on the masculine character of God. But when we omit the feminine, are we missing a very fundamental part of God’s nature? Maybe understanding a bit more about the feminine would help us to have…

As we do this, let’s consider the following: Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past —George Orwell “1984” The control of the narrative has often been a way to push false information about our history as though it was fact. This is often done, not only for…
Coffee and Conversation
Please join us this Sunday from 10:15-10:45 a.m. in Cokesbury Hall for Coffee & Conversation. This week our topic is “Open.” DOES PRAYER REALLY HELP? Many of us have experienced situations where we’ve prayed and it felt like God wasn’t listening. And yet other times we’ve prayed or known someone that prayed and the situation changed.

Coffee and Conversation
Please join us this Sunday from 10:15-10:45 a.m. in Cokesbury Hall for Coffee & Conversation. This week our topic is “Name.” Are we so concerned with what others think that we miss out on being who God created us to be? We all compare ourselves to others.
