With God On Our Side?

An election season series about America and what it means to be the people of God
Oct. 27, 2024 – Nov. 17, 2024

With a contentious election this year, how can we prepare ourselves, as best we can, for the future? With God on Our Side is a series that explores our own American history and tendencies to read ourselves into Scripture as God’s people and fall into trappings of division. Our biggest emotions swell from the smallest of moments. Lean into learning and unlearning about discovering who God is both in and outside of our lives.
