sermon series returns this sunday
It started small—too small, surely, to make a difference. The first skirmishes in the battle for humanity would be waged in a flyspeck fishing town north of nowhere. With just a few good men, the Light would launch its offensive to take back a world covered in darkness. Leading the way, heaven’s Champion would prove that God was not done fighting for his people.
Though it all started so small, the world would never be the same. We hope you will join us as we return to Pastor Jonathan’s series over the next several weeks.

upcoming bible studies
The Daniel Plan
A new Bible study begins Wednesday, March 9 at 6 pm in room D236 of Family Center. Phil Martin will be leading a six-week study of The Daniel Plan. The Daniel Plan is far more than a diet plan. It is an appetizing approach to achieving a healthy lifestyle by optimizing the five key essentials of faith, food, fitness, focus, and friends. For more information, contact Phil Martin at pmartin@morningsidebaptist.com

Parents, if you are interested in joining a new Sunday night small group that meets every-other-week, please contact Pastor Zach for more details. The new Bible study, Habits of the Household: Practicing the Story of God in Everyday Family Rhythms, is launching soon!
