Preaching Schedule

In a recent Year of the Bible class, Rev. Dr. Skip Ferguson made the point that prayer is or is intended to be mostly listening – our listening to God, yet we make of prayer much of the time a listing of our wants, needs, and timetable. The sermon series this Lent will explore the spiritual practice of listening as Jesus interacts with the people and world around him, and makes his way to the cross.
