Note from Pastor Jana Dear Church Family, Have you ever heard someone say, “Everything happens for a reason,” or “God won’t give you more than you can handle”? These phrases are often spoken with good intentions. They sound comforting, and in some ways they feel spiritually reassuring. But what if they’re not entirely true? Starting May 4th, we are diving into a thought-provoking and spiritually enriching sermon series based on Adam Hamilton’s book Half Truths: God Helps Those Who Help Themselves and Other Things the Bible Doesn’t Say. Each week, we will explore one of these familiar sayings, unpacking what Scripture actually teaches and how a deeper understanding can transform our faith and relationships. Here are the topics we'll cover: Week 1: Everything Happens for a Reason Week 2: God Helps Those Who Help Themselves Week 3: God Won’t Give You More Than You Can Handle Week 4: God Said It, I Believe It, That Settles It Week 5: Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin This series invites us to think critically, reflect biblically, and grow spiritually. It reminds us that while these sayings may contain a grain of truth, they often miss the fullness of the Gospel message. Together, we will discover how God's grace, love, and call to compassion move us beyond cliché toward a more authentic faith. In Christ, Pastor Jana
