FRONT AND CENTER Thank you for choosing a seat to the front and center of the Worship Center when we come together to worship as a community. This helps your mind and heart remain engaged as others discreetly find open seating in the back once the service has begun.
Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, we are excited to walk together with you. If you’re new, we’d like to give you a free gift, (no strings attached), just stop by a host station.

KIDS KAMP 2013
Have you ever seen yourself in a movie? You will this June and July as you join us for seven summer blockbusters in our “At the Movies” series. We’ll be drinking deep spiritual truth drawn from the biblical well of salvation, but watching it pursued and portrayed in movies you may have seen: “42” the new baseball film about Jackie Robinson. Did you know he and the team owner both believed and practiced the same Christian faith? (2 Peter 1:3-11), “50 First Dates” showing us what relentless love looks like in a world that tragically tends to forget the ones that matter most. (John 4), “Les Miserables” What do Wolverine, Gladiator and Catwoman have to teach Christ Followers in Miami of today? (Romans 1:16), “Avengers” shows us something of the transformational power of a team that works together in unity (Romans 12:3-8), “Schindler’s List” profoundly invites us to find our place in the drama of human redemption (Luke 16:9), “Back to the Future” is a blast from the past that calls us to always focus forward – seems like a great finale on a reunion weekend (Hebrews 12:1-2). Plus, a special family fun Mystery Movie you won’t want to miss (1 Corinthians 13:13).
