This Week's Message

Pastor Bryan Scott | God’s Judgement & Mercy |
Genesis 4:8-16

In creation, we see God’s intent for all things. In the Fall, we see how sin negatively impacts humanity and creation. Through it all we see God’s plan for redemption beginning to unfold. Seeing God as creator enhances our worship of him and scuttles endeavors to worship the created.
