Hey Belay!

We're wrapping up Ecclesiastes this month and stepping into a new series I've been excited about for a while — "Thankful for the Cross."

Most of us know Jesus died on the cross. But why he did it? That's where real gratitude starts. Can't wait to walk through it with you.

Grateful for you,

Paul
