“God bless you.” We say it all the time in all sorts of situations. But what does this little word “blessed” actually mean? Too often, we use it when we feel good and everything is going our way. But if this is our definition of being blessed, what happens when things aren’t picture perfect? Because ultimately, being blessed isn’t about the things we have or the way we feel. It’s about becoming who God is shaping us to be.

Marengo Cave Adventurers: Please be at the church by 5:15 PM this Friday for our trek to Marengo, IN. Make sure to download the release form and bring it with you if you haven’t already turned it in.
