The Genesis of Dysfunction

From the very beginning of human existence, family relationships can be seen in profound havoc. By looking at the examples of families in the first book of the Bible (Genesis), we can see ourselves more clearly and our need for the gospel more undoubtedly.  We will spend three weeks looking at marriage, three weeks looking at parenting, and one week looking at singleness in the book of Genesis. Each one of these stories from Genesis will help uncover truths about our own families and point us to our perfect Savior, Jesus Christ, the only One who brings function from within our dysfunction.

Below you'll find the schedule of talks planned by our teaching pastors for February and March, 2010.
