Summer is traditionally a time to step out of routine and give ourselves permission to wander and daydream. What better season to let our minds “wonder” about our big questions of faith?

When we look at how Jesus graciously handled curiosity and doubt, we can affirm that “Not All Who ‘Wonder’ Are Lost!”

In May, CPC Members wrote down and submitted their “wonderings” about the Bible and Christian faith, and in worship from June through August, we ALL get to ponder these questions. Stay each Sunday for the post-worship Q and R (Question and Response) time with the preacher!
