Small Group Study!

We’ve started the school year with a sermon series designed to dive deeper into the Bible. In conjunction, Ryan will be leading a 6-week book study/small group during the gathering time (Sunday’s after Worship), and you are encouraged to be a part of that! It's based on Adam Hamilton's book, "Making Sense of the Bible." Email Pastor Ryan (ryan@skycrest.net) for more information, or indicate your rsvp to the group on the blue cards found in the pews.

Make a Difference Today!

Today, September 20th the BIG RED BUS from OneBlood will be at church starting at 10:00 a.m. to collect blood donations. Giving blood is easy. Generous blood donors are badly needed.

Scripture

34 But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees with his reply, they met together to question him again. 35 One of them, an expert in religious law, tried to trap him with this question: 36 “Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?”
37 Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’[e] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[f] 40 The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.”
— Matthew 22:34-40 (NLT)
