Radical
When you say you’re a follower of Christ, are you ready for what that really means? As Christians, are we really ready to “take up our cross and follow him?” The stakes are high, and opportunity is significant. This calls for radical actions based on a radical commitment to the one who demonstrated radical love.
Jesus held nothing back. He gave his life. We do not have the luxury of following him only when it’s convenient—we are called to follow him on a life-changing journey.
Senior Pastor Marty Grubbs will lead us through a new series, Radical, and explore what it looks like to stop playing it safe and truly live out what we believe.
