Giving | Pastor David Frech | Why: Church Interactive
In this week's sermon, Pastor David Frech teaches on the heart of generosity, and how God has exemplified it in the giving of His Son, Jesus. He is also joined by the elders and pastors of the church in a special ceremony of "burning the mortgage" for the Olathe campus, representing the elimination of any debt owed for the building.
Join us for service online every Sunday at 9am and 10:45am (CST)!
