Sermon Series Overview:
Grab your popcorn and join us for a summer sermon series with a twist! Each week, we'll explore a different film and discover how its themes connect to timeless biblical truths. While movies entertain us, they also tell stories about hope, courage, redemption, love, purpose, and faith; stories that often echo God's greater story.
Together, we'll look beyond the screen to uncover scriptural insights that can inspire, challenge, and strengthen us in our everyday lives. Whether you're a movie lover, a seeker, or someone looking for a fresh way to engage with faith, this series invites you to see how God can speak through unexpected places.
Come experience the power of story and discover the truth behind the scenes.

Weekly Sermon Overview:
The Super Mario Bros. Movie is about two Brooklyn plumbers, Mario and Luigi who get sucked into a magical world. Luigi is captured by Bowser, and Mario teams up with Princess Peach, Toad, and later Donkey Kong to rescue him. The movie is about the Mushroom Kingdom which we will compare the work we do as ordinary people in the Kingdom of God as followers of Jesus.
To kick off our Summer at the Movies sermon series, this Sunday will be a family service including all the kids. There will be no regular Kids Ministry programming at 9:45am - all children are encouraged to join us for worship! Another fun twist is to dress up in your favorite Mario Bros. costume/ accessories. Popcorn will be served!
