Sermon Update

“It is the love of God that is unique and different from any other kind of love that we see in this world…This kind of love, this transformation that comes from it, can only happen as we displace ourselves…As we take ourselves out of comfort and put ourselves in an uncomfortable situation, that’s God led, so that he can actually change us.” – Chris Rattay
