Our message theme for 2015 is “God’s Top Ten.” We are going to look closely at the Ten Commandments from Exodus 20:1-17. We will pay attention to what these commandments mean for us today and especially at what Jesus said about them.
NOTE: Our small group ministry uses the Sunday sermon as a launching point to continue the conversation. The “growth group” link takes you to the .pdf of that week’s small group outline. It’s a great way of digging deeper into the scripture.
Here are the sermon audio files for 2015. Enjoy!
