This fall, we’ve been exploring what it means to be a church with both “Deep Roots and Wide Branches.” The flourishing of our ministries depends not only on what we do out in the world, but also on what we nurture within. In a culture of distraction and instant gratification, we are called to be dedicated people who put down roots in God and in community, through thoughtful faith, prayerful worship, and heartfelt fellowship. This season of stewardship is not only about meeting a budget. It is about responding to God’s call to be a rooted people.
