A vision for bread: a Community church.
God never intended for us to go through life alone. Being in community is an essential part of the spiritual life, and central to the healing mission of Jesus.
Examining the story of the woman with the bleeding condition, we will see how Jesus models bringing people on the outside of society into intimate relationship with Him and each other.

The kingdom needs you: the great banquet.
The Parable of the Great Banquet is Jesus opening the doors to everyone. After being invited to dinner by a group of Pharisees, Jesus answers their question on who’s in and who’s out in his new kingdom. Drawing from Isaiah’s messianic banquet prophecy 700 years earlier, Jesus redeclares God’s desire for everyone to be included. That means you too!
