Virtual Bible Studies
Every Wednesday 7pm on Zoom
Join Rev. Todd Farley as he takes us through a journey to
rethink our mission as a congregation.Wednesdays at 7 pm on Zoom
Is your church a rowboat church or a sailboat church?
Rowboat churches depend largely on human effort. When church budgets shrink and membership declines,
rowboat churches frantically row harder against a current, often frustrated and disappointed at their efforts.
Sailboat churches, on the other hand, take up the oars, hoist sails, and rely on the Holy Spirit to guide them.
Arguing that churches should be "sailboats," Joan S. Gray encourages readers to shift concern from the many daily, practical
concerns of their local church to fresh ideas that can be found using the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
The book includes forty days of sailing prayers, quotes from Scripture, brief reflection questions,
and an extensive bibliography that is arranged by theme. Perfect for groups to read together,
this book will help leaders reframe their church's mission and practice with the Holy Spirit as their guide.
Book Available in the Office for $12 (scholarships available)
We have read and discussed the book and are entering the 40 days of prayer,
as outlined in the book's conclusion.
There are plans to meet during this time of prayer, dates TBA.
