Current Sermon Series


What difference does being a follower of Jesus make in your life today? Much emphasis is often placed on the individual salvation of the soul and the afterlife. Yet it is difficult to read the Gospels and believe that the main point of Christianity is “to go to heaven when you die.” Jesus’ teaching about what he called the kingdom of God reveals that life in Christ is not first and foremost about life after death. Neither does the gospel mean that we agree with abstract theological propositions in order to qualify to go to heaven when we die. The gospel invites us to live a new way of life—here and now. Following Jesus means there is a true and genuine “life before death.”


This sermon series explores what it means to experience “life before death” and live into the Lord’s Prayer that God’s “kingdom come and God’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”


Join us this Sunday for Life Before Death.
