For Our Good Always

Throughout history many people have rejected God because they wanted to act immorally...why does it seem like those walking away from God today believe God is the immoral one?

For Our Good Always argues that our thinking about morality can be profoundly reductionistic, lacking necessary categories that different cultures and times might help us see more clearly. It offers a truly important claim to consider:
God's boundaries and rules for us are—clearly and unmistakably—for our good.

GRAB THE BOOK

To help us grow in our understanding of God’s goodness, we decided to write a book for this series. You can buy the book at one of our Gatherings for a suggested donation of $7, or you can purchase through Amazon, Kindle, or Audible.

PRACTICES

For this series, we want to focus on a particular tool to help us learn to follow Jesus more closely. And given that we’re studying the Ten Commandments, our corporate practice is focusing on the fourth commandment - observing the Sabbath.

READING PLAN

As God’s people, we want to be guided by His Word and empowered by His Spirit to fuel us to be a Jesus-centered family on mission. This reading plan is designed to ground you in God’s Word to better prepare your heart for the teaching you’ll hear on Sundays.
