For followers of Jesus, there is a week that stands above all the others. It’s the week that makes the running point in the human story and in OUR story! Passion Week or Holy Week leads up to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, the Son of God. We will take two weeks leading up to our Good Friday service and Easter Weekend to look at The Week and to prepare our hearts. In addition, we’ll have daily devotions through the Journey app and website that will walk us through virtual Stations of the Cross. ▫️▪️▫️▪️ If you call Journey home, you can give here as an act of worship.

It’s pretty safe to say that we feel like we’ve lost a lot in the past year. Lost connections, moments, money, relationships, experiences and more. And maybe in a lot of ways we feel like we’ve lost ourselves, our soul, the “us” and the “me” that we used to be. But there is hope! With God’s help we can get our lives back, we can live life — as He intended — with Him. What would it look like to fight for the life that God has for us? How can we reconnect with God’s power? We’ll look at these questions and see what the Bible says about “getting our lives back.” ▫️▪️▫️▪️ If you call Journey home, you can give here as an act of worship.
