CURRENT SERIES for Students in grades 6-12
Simplify
No one likes it when things are overcomplicated. Need me to prove it? Well, have you ever stressed over instructions for assembling a coffee table or maybe wrestled with a device you didn’t know how to turn on? We like it when things “just make sense”. Too bad faith rarely seems that simple. But what if it could be? What if, in some ways, we’ve overcomplicated faith? In our new series on The Greatest Commandment called “Simplify”, we’ll be exploring what Jesus said matters most when it comes to our faith. By the end of these four weeks, we’ll all be able to breathe a little easier knowing that Jesus came not to complicate, but to simplify what it means to have faith in God.
