We shall do well to watch our habits of prayer with a holy watchfulness. Here is the pulse of our Christianity. Here is the true test of our state before God.

November Parents Date Night

Location: The Loft (31200 Solon Road, Solon 44139)
Start Time: Sat 3, Nov. 2012, 7 p.m.
End Time: Sat 3, Nov. 2012, 10 p.m.

What?  PDN offers free childcare for parents to give them a night away from their parental duties to enjoy a “Date Night” dinner, movie, or quiet afternoon at home.  Our hope is that it will also give parents the opportunity to go on a double-date to build relationships with other couples for encouragement or evangelism by inviting friends, neighbors, or coworkers with kids to take advantage of childcare. Children will enjoy playtime on the inflatables, crafts, dinner, and a movie.

Christianity Explored

One Life. What's it all about?

Christianity is pretty simple. It's all about one life, the life of Jesus, and it can be explored by considering 5 simple questions:

• Who is Jesus?
• Why did Jesus come? To be rejected.
• Why did Jesus come? To be killed.
• Why did Jesus come? To rise again.
• What does it mean for us?
