Stewards of Children Training
Typically, our mentality toward the idea of child sexual abuse is, "it won't happen to my child, or anyone I know." We hope and pray that this is true, but, based on the statistic that 1 in 10 children will be sexually abused before they are 18, the reality is, you will most likely know someone who was sexually abused at some point in their life, if you don't already. City Church will host Stewards of Children Training, a nationally recognized child sexual abuse prevention training that educates adults to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse. This course will take place on Sunday, April 19th from 1:00pm to 3:30pm in room 311 at Grace Covenant.

Advent Events and Resources
Here are some of the ways that we will celebrate Advent together this year...
Thinking About...Empathy
From Erik: "You know that thing that happens when you encounter a new idea and then everywhere you look you see more examples of it? That has been happening to me around the topic of empathy."
Thinking About...Built Environment
Innocently enough, last week I was reading an article on CityLab from The Atlantic. I really must have been trying to avoid work because the article was about road lane widths.
Thinking About...the Common Good
Erik shares his thoughts on the common good and how working towards it with people from all walks of life "begins to build trust in places where the commonwealth has long eroded."
Wrong Reasons...and Good News
Kyle LaFerriere shares his thoughts on City Church's trip to Chattanooga back in July--why he *thought* he went and why he *really* ended up there.
Thinking About...Money
Dear City Church Family, A basic principle that guides City Church is that the gospel changes everything. In other words, the good news of God's love for us in Jesus Christ affects every facet of our lives. That "everything" includes our money.
