    What are some ways you would describe God?

On Sunday, we started a new series about some of the attributes of God. We started with "infinite." But we want to hear what attributes of God on your heart and mind. Comment below.

    I have had the privilege of visiting the Grand Canyon a few times, and in doing so I’ve noticed an interesting phenomenon. When people catch sight of the canyon, they tend to fall silent. It is so big and overwhelming that at least for a moment silence is the best response, and if that is true for something created, how much truer is it for the creator? 

This Sunday, we are starting a five-week sermon series titled “Beyond – Our Transcendent God.” The idea of this series is to dig into the truth that God is so very far beyond us. He is infinite, while we are oh-so finite. He is eternal while we are like the grass, here today and gone tomorrow. He is immutable, the same yesterday, today and forever while we are fickle. He is impassible so we can’t manipulate his emotions. And God is ineffable— beyond what our words can express. And all this is amazingly good news because this same God is with us and for us. This same God chose to reveal himself to us by becoming one of us and by revealing himself through the Scriptures. This same God wants to have a relationship with us, so let’s lean in and get to know our transcendent Lord.
