puzzled about paradise? sunday 09.07.2008
“What Lies Beyond?”, is our Sunday morning focus for the autumn. It may surprise you that the Bible disagrees with what Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, and even many Christians believe about what happens after death. This Sunday we begin to unravel all the confusion, which will help you live your best life possible today.

celebrate others “The church is only truly the church when it exists for others; not to dominate or judge, but seeking to serve and to help.” —Deitrich Bonhoffer
Cheer for others ... cheer for everything that affirms life, cheer for anyone and everyone who struggles against evil.
Express love for others ... our desire is to heal—not judge; evil must be denounced, but in humility and with prayer.
Listen whole-heartedly to others ... listen, understand, appreciate and share in the experience of others.
Encourage others ... the discouragement of this world can only be countered with the hope of God: the story of Jesus.
Build authentic relationships with others ... life-giving relationships flow out of personal repentance and intimacy with God.
Rejoice with those who rejoice—weep with those who weep ... celebration and mourning both cry out for human contact.
Appreciate others ... every person everywhere—from the moment of conception and regardless of their situation—is wrapped in the mystery of God’s love.
Treat others with kindness ... kindness creates an atmosphere wonderful to breate and an environment that nurtures growth.
Energize others with grace ... grace is the gift of life; worship is all about living in the energies of God’s grace.
