02.21.15 & 02.22.15 – The White Space: Intro – Scott Hodge

The Bible.

Who wrote it? Why do we have it? What’s the purpose of it? Is it to be taken literally or not?

How do we engage the Bible in a way that opens us to the kind of transformation and change that it’s meant to bring in our lives individually and together as a community?

Join us during the season of Lent as we begin a new series called

THE WHITE SPACE.

  02.21.15 & 02.22.15 – The White Space- Scott Hodge

This past weekend we began a new series about the Bible called “The White Space.” Scott Hodge introduced the series by exploring what it is that makes the Bible such a difficult and challenging book for so many.

02.14.15 & 02.15.15 – Lent 2015- Larry Boatright

Lent is a 40-day season that helps us prepare for Easter.  For centuries, Christians have used Lent as an opportunity to shift our pace, slow down, and take an honest and clearheaded look at our lives.  This year, The Orchard Community will practice Lent in a number of ways, beginning with Ash Wednesday, journeying us through Lent, Holy Week, Good Friday and into a life-brimming celebration of resurrection at Easter.

For more about LENT… its origins and how The Orchard Community is practicing it this year, read this post called “Why Lent?”

Visit our 2015 Lent Resources Page for books, films, music and more ideas on how to practice Lent.
