Have a beautiful July 4 weekend! See you in worship.
Americans celebrate Independence Day this weekend, recognizing that freedom is the pursuit of all people. We desire lives free from contradiction and deceit, free from role playing or game playing, ultimately seeking the freedom to be all we really wanted...and were designed...to be. It is the Holy Spirit who frees us to reach our highest potential. Join Pastor Mike Slaughter in Main Campus worship this weekend for Breathe: Living Free. Or, worship at our Fort McKinley Campus (3721 W. Siebenthaler in Dayton) on Sunday at 9 & 10:15 a.m.
"Bible Study, Application & Accountability: three steps to life-transforming group life" All cell group members are invited to attend 1 of our 2 upcoming cell group training sessions scheduled for Wednesday, July 8 or 15, 7-8:30 p.m. in Main Campus 203. Don't miss this coaching event! For your cell group to become a place where true life change takes place, you must intentionally work through these 3 steps of deep life commitment together.

Church attendance in America has shown a marked decrease in the last decade, which has drawn ample media attention. Crowds that flocked to mega churches in the 1990's are choosing other options. The four largest churches in the U.S. have shown significant decreases in attendance during the last two years.
