Here's what's coming up at City Chapel of Bremerton.
What Do You Make of Him?(Luke 7)
Sunday Sermon
What's the biggest obstacle to faith? Luke 7 suggests it might not be what you think. The people drawn closest to Jesus are a Roman outsider, a desperate widow, and a woman the room wanted to ignore — while the religious and respectable keep their distance. Maybe the problem isn't being broken. Maybe the problem is being fine. We'd love to have you with us Sunday as we unpack Luke 7 and receive all that God has for us.
