SHAPE Series-Week 6-Employing Your Experiences
This Sunday we will conclude our six part series (based on the teaching from Saddle Back Church) “Shaped to Make a Difference.” We’ve looked at five different ways that God wired you uniquely to fulfill your purpose in life. We used the acrostic SHAPE.

So, when was the last time you read the book of "Lamentations"? Ha! I can't remember either!

This message explores this candid reality of life while introducing the new theme for the New Year: 2012 "New Experiences".

Because of who Jesus is and what He has done for His people, we can hope in the midst of despair.
