We wanted to create a space where we could update you on news from around the church, information on upcoming events, follow up to a recent sermon.
Often you will find thoughts on a Sunday message or event stories from our life together as a church.
Some of the sweetest times for small groups/gatherings or families are when they can participate in the Lord’s Supper together. The Bible stresses the importance of unity in Communion, which is why taking Communion with those you do life with on a regular basis can be powerful....
We are in this together, but no one is as close to you as your spouse. Let’s cultivate our marriage so it will stand this test. Our prayer is that the marriages at Metro will bring great glory to God and be an outstanding example for our children. They are watching and learning by our example....
We must understand that our choices place us in the bounds of responsibility. If we acquire much, we will have the responsibility to care for much.

With our individual choices of “things,” we must be responsible as believers and prepared to cover their costs during guaranteed hardships. That is Proverbial wisdom....
We’re in a time when people are tempted, and instructed, to care for themselves and their families above all else.

Don’t assume you know their answers. Give them time to process and think out loud. Affirm that they are sharing in a safe environment....
