nurture Christians in training who, equipped by the Holy Spirit, go into
the world and share the light of Jesus Christ.

What If ...
"What if church was
less about Sunday, and more about the other days of the
week?"
"What if church
wasn't just a place to go, but something we do?"
"What if church
wasn't just a building, but thousands of doors, each
opening up to a different concept or experience of church?
"What if there was
a church like that near me?"
What If We ReThink Church?
Want to know more? Go to www.10thousanddoors.org,

Sunday at 10:30 a.m.Got

mighty-good breakfast ... well, you've just missed
the best free thing in life outside of grace. It's on
the table at 8 o'clock the second Sunday of each month!
