Save the Date: Good Friday Seder Dinner!
Messiah in the Passover Seder Dinner Tickets
Please register you and and your guests for our Good Friday event. You will need to eat a meal beforehand, as our event is a spiritual and ceremonial meal.
It is entirely fitting for your non-believing friends and especially those who might be interested in experiencing an authentic Jewish Passover meal as Jesus would have celebrated it.
https://pathways.family/Seder2025Online Lent Devotional
Lent is a 40-day period in Christianity leading up to Easter. It's a time for reflection, fasting, and self-discipline, remembering the 40 days Jesus spent in the desert. Many people give something up for the positive spiritual impact (like road rage or a long held grudge or jealousy), or they might take on a new practice (like a daily reading of the Bible or using a new worship playlist while exercising), to focus on spiritual growth. It’s about slowing down, reflecting, and preparing for the celebration of Easter. The linked guide is from Biola University, but there are many other free options online.

The Weekly Offering Moment
We offer a weekly Offering Moment for your spiritual growth. Are you, like so many of us, caught in the accidental idolatry of money? Will you engage weekly in the spiritual act of fighting that idolatry by thanking God, the true source of all of our resources? God promises that a freedom from idolatry of any kind can be a life filled with fullness and joy and love and freedom. He invites you into this life of giving generously. Will you consider a spiritual act of generosity? *Please use the link below and select "General Fund."

THROUGH THE WEEK
(Don't forget to click "Save" in the upper right corner!)
1. Who’s someone in your life who doesn’t follow Jesus — but you know they trust you?
2. When’s the last time you felt awkward… but knew it mattered to say something?
3. What does it mean to be a safe person that people can be real with?
4. Has someone ever loved you toward Jesus — not by preaching, but just by being present?
5. What if evangelism looked more like authentic and deep friendship instead of just a formula?
6. What’s one relationship where God might already be doing more than you can see?
7. Who can encourage you, pray for, and ask you about your Jesus conversations with your friend?
