Romans 8 is one of the best-known and best-loved chapters in all of Scripture. It is teeming with life and promise and hope for all those who take the time to refresh themselves in its words. It is our prayer that this ten part sermon series in Romans 8 will renew and strengthen us as a church as we behold with fresh amazement all that is ours because of Christ.

For the next eight weeks we are going to be in the book of Psalms. We are calling this series in the Psalms, “An Anatomy of the Soul.” That title is taken from John Calvin who called the Psalms “an anatomy of every part of the soul.” In this book, every experience, every emotion, all the heights and depths, all the joys and sorrows, all the mysteries of human life are dealt with.

It's sad to admit this, but being critical and making negative, even uncharitable judgments about others, comes naturally to me. But guess what?  The same is true of you!

This week, all Crossway Care Groups will begin a DVD curriculum entitled “The Prodigal God” by Timothy Keller. I must admit, the book had been out for some time before I finally got a copy and began reading what I thought was simply an all too familiar story of the prodigal son from the Gospel of Luke. What I expected and what I was confronted with and convicted by went far beyond the story I remembered as a child.

Many months ago, myself, along with two web savvy members of our church began the task of creating a new Crossway website. Our previous site was getting a little dated and we all felt it was time for a fresh look. As I put the last few finishing touches in place, I have been humbled while reflecting at the amount of work these two men have put into what you see here before you today. Everytime I visit the site, upload content, write a blog post etc. I will thank the Lord for those who seek to serve His church by using the gifts God has given them.
