lent begins feb. 14 Women's Evening Bible Study No Other Gods by Kelly Minter Wednesday Evening Worship During Lent 7:00 pm at both campuses Catered Dinner 6:00 pm (MTKA) Dinner 5:30 pm (MPLS) Mondays, Jan. 29, Feb. 5, 12, 26, March 5, 12, 19 & 26 6:30-8:30 pm Idols are obvious, right? Money, power, fame. But what about the subtler idols, the ones that sneak in under the radar? Can they sometimes take the form of our children, Instagramable homes, foods/health trends, or even busy seasons of ministry? If your heart is prioritizing any of those kinds of pursuits befor e God, they are taking up space meant for Him alone. Please join us for an 8-session study. Learn to identify the functional gods we don't even realize we are serving daily and the lies they tell. Only when we learn to dethrone modern-day idols can we pursue a deeper, more meaningful relationship with Jesus. Understanding who Jesus is holds both mystery and certainty. Pay attention to when he says “I AM” and we learn about who he is and who we’re created to be. As we make our journeys from Ash Wednesday to Holy Week, you are invited to join us for dinner and worship on Wednesdays. Worship on Wednesday evenings will begin at 7:00 pm, at both campuses, and will include guest ensembles and musicians throughout the season.
