Lenten Sermon Series “Out of the Wilderness,” February 22-March 29
Wilderness is real. Today it seems even more so. Jesus lived there for forty days but made his way out, even if it was towards a cross. For these weeks of Lent, we are going to look hard at those contemporary places of wilderness that come our way. Come join us each week as we follow Jesus “Out of the Wilderness”, both then and now!
