This week at Rise we will begin our series 'The Artist' where we will be looking at who God is. Before we can begin to understand who He is, we will discuss why it is reasonable to believe that God exists.
Tonight we will be talking about the second person of the trinity, Jesus. We will be discussing how Jesus is not a far off concept or ancient nice guy, but a living person who we can know and have a relationship with.
This week we begin a new series called "The Masterpiece." As we concluded our series of God as an artist, we naturally ask, "what is His greatest work?" Humanity is His masterpiece and He loves us so much that He became one of us so that as His disciples we may become like Him. That journey begins with our baptism where we are adopted as children of God.
Our topic this week is prayer. Prayer doesn't just help our relationship with God, it is our relationship with Him, and it's a crucial part of being the 'Masterpiece' that we were made to be.
