Foundations Class Continues This Saturday
Join us this Saturday at 9:30 am for the start of a new Foundations class. Foundations is an introduction to Biblical theology. You can take this course if you’re interested in learning more about the Bible or if you are interested in becoming a member of Good Shepherd. When you’re done with it, you will have a firm grasp on how the bible is all about Jesus, dozens of key Bible teachings, and lots of application.
Upcoming Sunday
Through Christ’s resurrection, we are victors. Jesus' victory over sin and death defines our lives as His redeemed people. We celebrate the triumph of the resurrection, where death is swallowed up in victory. That victory gives us courage in the face of fear and lifts our eyes to worship the Lamb in His majesty. As we journey through life, we follow our Shepherd, who leads us to living waters and wipes away every tear. His victory transforms the way we love one another and shapes how we live both today, tomorrow, and in eternity. Finally, we rejoice in the triumph of our returning King, whose reign is certain and whose victory is everlasting. In Christ, we do not fight for victory—we are victors along with him.
