    Today, I will be using the term ‘gay’ in both its original form and its contemporary form, so let me define it both ways for you this morning. Originally, GAY meant: to be characterized by colorful and lighthearted excitement: MERRY. As in, “Have a GAY day!” In the old days, wishing your neighbor ...read more

    Our church needs to be a place where broken people can recover.

    Today’s message is about recovery from brokenness. This has been a strength of MCC and I hope it always is. Jesus loves and heals broken hearted people. Let’s be a church that He can use in this process. Our passage for today is Luke 15(11-24). (Read Passage) Being lost or losing something is a ...read more
