SUMMARY:The Story of Our Lives Worship Series
DESCRIPTION:This Easter season\, we follow the risen Jesus through stories—stories of confusion and recognition\, fear and courage\, friendship and hope. Before the disciples become the leaders of the church\, they are simply people trying to find words for an experience that has changed everything. As we listen again to these resurrection stories\, we’ll discover how our own lives are woven into God’s ongoing story—shaping us to live with honesty\, connection\, and hope in a world still longing for good news. Join us each week for worship and opportunities to practice telling and living this story together.
