Join us as we begin a new message series, entitled: “Not Your Grandma’s Jesus.” This will sort of be like a “blast from the past” (a term that DJ’s used to use when they wanted to introduce a song, on the radio, as being a “golden oldie” or a song from “yesterday,”,or “a blast from the past”). Oh, those memories…those were the days (or so we thought…).
Sometimes our “pictures,” our memories, become fuzzy, clouded, or faded.

What’s your picture of Jesus look like? How clear is it? How accurate are “the actual colors”? Has your picture of Jesus begun to fade? Are you really seeing His true portrait, His true self, His true colors? Or, are you relying on “a blast from the past”?
Join us as we gently open the pages of Scripture and slowly, but carefully, look at the actual pictures of Jesus. The pictures you see may look entirely different than the ones your gramdma saw! See for yourself…
