Join us on October 28 to hear from Chris Davis, pastor, author, and speaker.

We often treat the return of Jesus as a puzzle to be solved or an event that is so far off that it has no bearing on our lives today. But the New Testament teaches otherwise. Hope is fuel, and the hope of seeing Jesus face to face can fuel joyful endurance through your greatest challenges. Join us as we dig deeper into this Biblical teaching and ask how it applies to the contemporary struggles we face as men.

Chris’s message, “Hope is the Fuel,” will be an excellent reminder of how our Hope for today and tomorrow is in anticipation of Christ’s promises and return. No matter where you are on the spectrum of your relationship with Christ we are certain you will find encouragement in Chris’s message.

There will also be a Q&A time after the message.
