The Forgiveness of Sins

The Forgiveness of Sins

We’re all searching for something to believe. Sometimes the search is easy. But sometimes our questions are complicated and what to believe is difficult to determine and even harder to articulate. Join First United Methodist Church for Believe – a new worship series in which we will explore the essential beliefs of the Christian faith and why these beliefs matter. We will examine the truths that give meaning and purpose to life. If you are curious about Christianity, looking for answers to tough questions or wondering if faith matters, join us as we search together for truth.
