Engage review – On the verge of maturity
We completed the first half of the On the Verge series Monday by going on the verge of maturity together. Chris Brooks took us into a strange parable Jesus told about a dishonest servant (Luke 16) and showed us in that story that we need to own it when it comes to our journey into [...]

Engage preview – Oct. 20 – On the verge of maturity
For the last two weeks at Engage, we’ve been on the verge. We started on the verge of greatness, and we thought about what’s in our hand and how we can use whatever that is to join God’s great story. Last week, we went on the verge of a big decision, and we saw that [...]
