The New Normal

The New Normal is a sermon and small group series in the book of James.

RESOURCES

We encourage you to utilize these resources for our series. The content is designed to help you grow in community and individually, and also to share with others who might benefit from them.

DISCUSSION GUIDES

Discussion Guides for small groups are updated by the end of day on Friday each week and coincide with the sermon for that week.

DAILY WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT VIDEOS

Our daily word of encouragement videos also reinforce what is taught on Sunday mornings. You can access our videos on social media, the home page of our website, in our enewsletter, and on our YouTube channel.

WORSHIP

Listen to some of the worship songs that we sing on Sundays from our Spotify playlist. It's a great way to engage in worship while you drive, do chores, or exercise, and it's also a way to fill your home with truth and peace and joy.
