Summer Teaching Series – What would it be like to sit down and have a conversation with Jesus? What would you say to him? More importantly, what would he say to you? While on earth, Jesus had many real conversations with many ordinary people. People who struggled with issues like we struggle with today. Each week during this summer series we’ll “listen in” on a number of transformative conversations Jesus had with real people. Through these conversations we’ll explore the timeless truths and divine wisdom Jesus shares.

A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
