Sunday Recap – March 8

On Sunday, Pastor Brian Keepers (Orange City campus) and Pastor Kurt Bush (Hospers campus) preached from Philippians 3:1-11. We live in a culture that says “Winning is everything!” But Paul shows us how the Gospel turns this on its head and insists that the secret to living with joy is actually losing. It is only in taking up the cross and losing what we most value (including our very lives) that we finally find true life and joy!

This Week at Trinity

Orange City Campus

Perspectives & Conversations on Same-Sex Relationships: Join us at Trinity for a six-week series exploring perspectives and engaging in conversations related to same-sex relationships. We will meet on Wednesday nights from 6:15-7:45 March 11 – April 15. We’ll explore the theology of the body and the different Christian perspectives on same-sex relationships. Let’s consider creating a safe and courageous space, with a posture of listening and love. How might we hold to a global, historical view of Scripture and love our sexual minority brothers and sisters well?  For further information or to register, please visit our online sign up.
