Remember Who You Are Sermon Series

  • Bethany First Church of the Nazarene (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

What do you do when you feel like you don’t belong, even in your own city?
When the values of society seem out of sync with your own?
When raising your children in this world feels like navigating unfamiliar territory?

In times of uncertainty, it's important to anchor yourself in who you truly are.
You are a part of a story. A story of new life and redemption. 
You walk in the footsteps of Jesus, guided by His wisdom and compassion.
You serve as a beacon of hope and strength for the generations to come; you are well-prepared for this journey.
You are a commissioned for the Kingdom of God.

WAKE UP! The study of Jeremiah – God’s alarm clock for His people.

Join us as we make Jeremiah’s call personal—that we might WAKE UP to GOD’s WORD and WALK in HIS WAYS. Workbook is $20.

Jonah

Running away from it all. Resistant to change. Reluctant to listen. Resentful about the outcome. At difficult points in your life, these words can often describe how you're feeling. The good news is that you are not alone–God calls Jonah to speak to the masses on His behalf, and Jonah does everything he can to escape. But God is persistent, merciful, and compassionate to Jonah and you. Join us on Sunday mornings for our new series, Jonah, as we discover there's more to life with God than we could have ever imagined.
