Becoming a Community of Belonging | Role of Scripture

Becoming a Community of Belonging | Serving Community

Becoming a Community of Belonging | Transformed Community

Belonging with God

We were separated from God when humanity chose to subvert God's will for their own.  But we aren't meant to be in this state of separation, we are meant to be with God.
