During this season for many there is the reality of holiday stress wrapped up in family drama, family dysfunction, wondering how this side of the family is going to behave when they are around this other side of the family, for some there are unmet expectations that bring about disappointment. The holidays can be a little chaotic as we navigate all of these emotions.
All too often when we have heightened emotions and feelings caused by stress or chaos we just try to pretend like they aren’t there or we aren’t actually feeling what we are feeling, if I just ignore the feelings it will go away.
Please join us as Pastor Donnie teaches on how we don’t eliminate chaos by ignoring emotions; we experience Christ’s peace by filtering emotions through God’s Word.

When dealing with chaotic, emotionally or physically abusive family members, or unrepentant sin that is on display for everyone, Christians will often struggle with questions such as: “am I wrong to cut off my own family members?

Please join us as Pastor Donnie talks about the answers to some of those questions by bringing clarity to the topic of boundaries.

There may be many things that come to mind when the word “theology” is used. For many it’s a class at a university, for some it’s the mental picture of an intelligent person who has extremely wise things at any moment or who is extremely introspective in regards to life. We can sometimes overthink theology believing that it’s just for a few or on the opposite side of that perspective are those who undermine theology all together, not seeing the necessity of it.
In today’s world, Christians are facing many questions, questions that relate to why we believe what we believe. Please join us as Pastor Donnie closes out our series on “A Proverbs Life”.
