Helping people
WEEKEND
find and follow Christ.
FRONT AND CENTER
Thank you for choosing a seat to the front & center of the Auditorium when we come together to worship as a community. This helps your mind & heart remain engaged as others discreetly find open seating in the back once the experience 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.

How many promises are there in the Bible? Estimates range from around 3,500 to over 7,000. Who knows? What matters more than that is the audacious claim Paul makes in his second letter to the Corinthians, “No matter how many promises God has made, they are ‘Yes’ in Christ” (2 Corinthians 1:20). Think of it. All the promises of God are “YES” in Jesus. No wonder the angels are so excited to announce His birth! God isn’t just coming to be with us in Jesus, He is coming to be FOR us! Rediscover the wonder of The Christmas Promise in our new December series. Titles include: Tree of Life, Gift of Love, Light of Hope, and Bells of Joy! Eight exciting opportunities to share The Promise of Christmas with others! Sunday, Dec 22: COUNTRY WALK 10a • 11:30a | CORAL GABLES 3p • 4:30p • 6p Tuesday, Dec 24: CORAL GABLES 3p • 4:30p • 6p
