April 27–May 3, 2025
The In Between Podcast
The call to care for creation is more than a trend—it’s a sacred responsibility. This week, we dive into a conversation with Ron Schmidt, whose deep concern for the earth and commitment to climate justice is rooted in both faith and hope. Together with Julia, Ron explores what it means to work toward a goal that feels both impossible and essential: net-zero emissions.
Join us for a powerful conversation about loving the world God made, staying curious in the face of crisis, and finding purpose in the work that matters most.

Big Small Group is a welcoming space where you can experience the heart of a small group in a larger setting at the church. We gather weekly to study the Bible, share life, and grow in community. Instead of meeting in homes, we meet at the church, creating a space where more people can connect while still forming meaningful relationships at their table groups. This session, we'll cover how God renews key areas in our lives. Each week, we will explore a different aspect of His redemptive work, moving in and through us. Together, we’re discovering how to apply these rhythms to our everyday lives in practical and transformative ways. Whether you’re new to small groups or looking for a place to belong, Big Small Group is a great way to deepen your faith and friendships in an accessible and engaging environment. May 7-June 12th 6:30-8:30pm in the 2nd Floor of the Ministry Center. Please enter through the South Entrance Worship Center Doors and walk over to the ministry center.
