The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry
We are all busy. Some of us can't remember the last time we rested or even had free time. Our busyness can feel producive but it is a toxic distraction, sapping our spiritual, physical, & emotional vitality. It may seem like we have no choice but to live at a frantic pace, but God has a better path for us. Join pastor/author John Mark Comer in this five-part series as he addresses one of the greatest threats to our spiritual lives: hurry. Instead of allowing our calendars and screens to control our lives, Jesus offers us a new rhythm of life, overflowing with grace, peace, and beauty. We enjoy prayer, fellowship, friendship, & bible study. Join us to learn how to establish "new" rhythms to our lives that enhance our relationship with Jesus
