New Sermon Series Beginning January 6 “Canoeing the Mountains” The world is changing. In this post-Christendom era, the importance of church and faith for many people is something of the past. For those of us who remain committed to the church, we tend to deal with the reality of shrinking numbers by doing what we’ve always done, only harder. This sermon series uses the book by the same name by Tod Bolsinger to explore what kind of leadership is needed in a world we weren’t prepared for. Our guides will be the first American adventurers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, who show us the approaches and tools that are needed when the journey goes “off the map”.
