Child Like - Trouble with Friends

At times we have a tendency to make things more complicated than they need to be. This can happen in our description of our faith and even in the way we worship. In this two-part series we'll use stories from the Berenstain Bears to illuminate simple truths from the Bible. The messages will be simple enough that even a child can understand them! Join us for these family-style worship services that will speak God's truth to all ages.
