21 Days of Justice Challenge

Since we first heard the name George Floyd in late May of 2020, there has been  renewed conversation about justice and racism. The pastors and staff are going to address  thee issues in a worship series called Just Like Jesus. To complement the sermon series and  go deeper, we’ve compiled twenty-one resources that speak biblical truth to issues of race. We  invite you to spend twenty-one days furthering your own understanding of biblical justice, and  hope this time will allow you to examine your own heart, reflect, and pray. Jesus is the perfect  picture of justice and mercy. At the cross, He does grace and truth. He reconciles ALL people to  himself.

Follow along with our Sermon Series on a 21 day challenge as we seek to become Just Like Jesus. Download the PDF or continue reading below.
