Sunday, August 1st, 2010 Current Teaching Series: Refuel
Nobody wants to live life on empty, but it happens all the time. It seems like the only way to keep up with all the demands of life is to run at maximum capacity-and then some. The consequences, of course, are endless: burnout, stress, bankruptcy, depression, spiritual apathy and more. The good news is that you don't have to live that way! In this series, we'll be looking at what it takes to refuel our lives.
Sunday, August 15th, 2010 Great Lakes 101
If you've been attending Great Lakes Church for 2 months or more, join us to learn more about this church and figure out if this is your church home. This class will articulate the beliefs, style, strategy, and structure of Great Lakes Church, and give you a better understanding of the "why" behind the way we do things around here. We'll explore God's purposes for the church and how we live it as individuals and as a church family. This is also a great time to get your questions answered.
- Registration begins at 2:40pm, the class will run from 3-5:30 pm.
