The Epistle (02/28/25)

THIS WEEK'S MEMORY VERSE

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with  him graciously give us all things?”

UPCOMING EVENTS:

CSLI IN-PERSON EVENT: Did Jesus really rise from the Dead?

Friday, March 7th - 7:30 -9:15 PM - Sanctuary

The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Did Jesus really rise from the dead? If not, even the Apostle Paul states that without the resurrection of Jesus, the Christian faith is futile, in vain, offers no forgiveness of sins and Christians are to be pitied for their foolishness. But, if Jesus did rise from the dead, then everything changes.

Whether you’re a believer, a seeker or a skeptic, come hear the foremost expert in the world on the resurrection of Christ, Dr. Gary Habermas and his colleague, Dr. Ben Shaw as they open up the floor for questions on this immensely important question.
  • 7:00pm ET – Doors Open | Light Refreshments Available
