Disciples Welcome
Hospitality is a word we use frequently in the church to describe relating rightly to others. The term references a warm reception, or friendly and generous receiving of other persons.

Disciples Gather
What are the risks of forsaking the gathering? Those who refrain from work know they will lose money, and those who avoid markets may lack food, so what does the believer miss out on when he refuses to gather? What do we miss, what do we lose, when we refuse to gather with other Christians? Join us this Sunday as we consider the way gathering transforms disciples from the inside out.
