TEACHING

JUL. 28:  UNSEEN, 4: We are caught in an unseen conflict between spiritual forces, and our enemy has a three-step process for destroying a culture. Once he causes us to forget God and leads us into sexual confusion, the stage is set for the third attack. But God’s people can resist if we know the enemy’s plans and if we are willing to stand firm. Join us this Sunday for the final part of our Field Guide to the Bible miniseries: Unseen.

*This Sunday there will be a special communion time.  Your family will be invited to receive communion at the tables stationed around the Worship Center.

Join us in-Person at 9:00am (acapella) or at 11:15am (instrumental) or Livestream at YouTube.com/Clearcreekcoc or clearcreek.online.church.
