Anchor Passage: Galatians 4:8-5:1

Anchor Passage: Galatians 4:8-5:1Legalism and trying to earn God's approval with our good works robs us of the joy we have in Jesus.  Don't let legalism steal your freedom!

Anchor Passage: John 19:28Jesus' cry from the cross that He was thirsty reminds us of the humanity of Jesus. Not only did Jesus thirst, but He wept, was angered, and experienced all the human emotions we experience. Join us to see how we worship a God who knows us and understands us.

Anchor Passage: Mark 15:34When Jesus yelled out “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me,” He was fulfilling an Old Testament prophecy.
