Jul 19th - Who is Rescuing Who?, with Rev. Sharon Edwards. Series: More Than You Think: Discovering the Parables of Jesus A Spacious Christianity, First Presbyterian Church of Bend, Oregon. Scripture: Luke 10.25–37.

Ever feel torn between wanting to help others and barely holding it together yourself? Or wonder why it can be so hard to let someone help you?

This Sunday we are exploring what it means to give and receive care in real life. No perfect people, just honest stories about loneliness, purpose, and the quiet ways we rescue each other.

Join us each Sunday, 10AM at bendfp.org, or 11AM KTVZ-CW Channel 612/12 in Bend.  Subscribe/Follow, and click the bell for alerts.

At First Presbyterian, you will meet people at many different places theologically and spiritually. And we love it that way. We want to be a place where our diversity brings us together and where conversation takes us all deeper in our understanding of God.

We call this kind of faith “Spacious Christianity.” We don’t ask anyone to sign creeds or statements of belief. The life of faith is about a way of being in the world and a faith that shows itself in love.
