Our summer kinship group semester is starting up next week!

While we recognize that summer is a time when a lot of people travel, and are out of town frequently, we encourage you to sign up up and get as involved as you can. Over the summer we have 4 groups up and running (1 on Tuesday, 2 on Thursday & even 1 on Saturday)

The groups will be spread out between Trumansburg, Lansing, & Ellis Hollow, and cover topics such as finances, being naturally supernatural, being culturally relevant, and the book of 1st John.

So, you should be able to find a group that is close to you, has a topic you are interested in, or, just happens to be where your friends are going to be!

You can find more information about our kinship groups, and sign up for one here. If you have any questions about the groups, contact our church office, or stop by the info table at the church this Sunday!

It is said doctors make the worst patients. So, when I visit a church, I work at being positive and noticing the good. At the same time, I believe it is crucial to critique what we, as the church, do. In Ireland, just as in the States, the fastest growing religious group is the “Nones”. While you can find a lot out there blaming the Nones, the ex-vangelicals, or those who are deconstructing their faith, for why fewer people attend church than did previously, I believe the first place we need to look is at ourselves.

3 Ways Christendom Has Been Bad for the Church

May 16, 2023

This is the fourth post in a series I’ve been writing on Christendom. The previous ones (here, here and here) were to lay some groundwork as I move into the main idea I want to dig into: the damage done to the church by aligning with the Roman Empire and,...
