Simple

SIMPLE

Have you ever wondered why we go to church? Do we attend worship services for the music, message, kids Sunday School, or the free coffee? This weekend Pastor Ray will be kicking off New Hope’s first teaching series of 2009, called SIMPLE.

In spite of what you may have heard, in spite of what you may have thought, the message of Jesus and the purpose of his church are really quite simple. In this three-part series beginning this weekend we will unpack the compelling simplicity of following Jesus, connecting with each other, and influencing the world. It really is that simple.

See you Sunday!

Pastor Brent
