Happy Easter CFC! Please be in prayer for those who don’t yet know Jesus, or are not following Him. This is a great time to consider inviting someone to church. ‘COME and SEE’ is our theme.

Have you ever felt alone or isolated? Maybe you've been through an experience where someone you loved and trusted walked out on you, or maybe you've experienced more mundane losses of companionship, such as moving to a new city or a new job. Join us this weekend as 2 Timothy chapter 4 gives a powerful declaration of God that greatly comforts those who feel alone.
If someone was giving you their famous last words, do you feel that you would tune in a bit more? Does your life have a unifying aim and direction to help orient you? Join us this weekend as we look at some of Paul's very last words to Timothy and a final charge that he gives to his mentee and also to us.
How much confidence do you have in your sources? Do you feel like you can base your life fully on your favorite political commentator or lifestyle influencer?

Have you ever worried about the genuineness or the potential counterfeits of the things you love? How would it feel to discover that the item that you spent so much on was but a hollow imitation? Join us this weekend on either site, as we receive see Paul encourage young Timothy and us to avoid an empty type of religion.
Would you like to know that God is using you for good purposes? I think we all would like to escape the mundane and be part of God’s world…to bring meaning to our workplace, pray with someone, give helpful advice, help resolve a conflict, or be part of a healing process for someone. This weekend we are going to look at what helps make us vessels of honor, “useful to the master of the house”, rather than vessels of dishonor.
Christians are ‘one’ in Christ. So then why are there so many church factions and fights? Paul tells Timothy, “don’t quarrel over words” (2:14). Does that mean just be quiet and never dispute doctrines and practices? How do we fight right! What is bad quarrel? How do we fight for truth? How can we let disputes become transformative and helpful to us? Join us this weekend to explore this.
Have you ever been tempted to quit on Jesus? Maybe you've found yourself discouraged in sharing the gospel or being servant-minded in a relationship, when things just aren't working. Join us this weekend, as 2 Timothy 2:3-11 gives us encouragement to endure to the end.
The vibe in our passage is a bit like ‘passing the baton’. Paul (facing execution) is challenging Timothy to “follow the pattern of sound words”. What was the pattern? How did we get the ‘sound’ or trustworthy words of the Bible? If someone said to you, “How do we know you can trust the Bible?” What would you say? Following the pattern includes life on life disciple- making. What does that look like? Join us this weekend to find out more.
I recently had an opportunity to share my faith with the hostess of our vacation condo, but I chose to play it safe and be a ‘good’ guest and leave a nice tip. Is that ok? Should we as believers mostly do the good works, or should we use words to share the gospel, or even with urgency be “…snatching them from the flame…” (Jude 1:23)? In our passage, Paul, who is facing execution for sharing the gospel, is challenging timid Timothy to be full of boldness when it comes to talking about Jesus. Join us this weekend as we explore this topic.
What are you living for? What drives you?
In our new series, ‘Multiply’, we find Paul driven by the ‘promise of life’! He is facing execution, and yet without slipping into self-pity, he is fully focused on making disciples. No fear. No distraction. Endearing relationships. A clear conscience. Wow. Join us this weekend to be inspired by Paul’s example.
