Sermon tapes available

Whenever you miss a service and would like to hear the sermon on tape, remember that we have forms on the back table for requesting a copy or copies of prior sermons. Please the competed request form in the offering bag -- or give it to one of the elders or deacons -- and we'll have the tape or tapes for you by the next service.

Re: Bonhoeffer Movie

Here's a PDF version of the Bonhoeffer movie poster.

Bonhoeffer Movie

A highly acclaimed film is coming to Columbia next week. Bonhoeffer will show at the Ragtag Cinema next Tuesday and Wednesday evening. Showtimes and directions can be found on the Ragtag's website:

Bonhoeffer's story is a compelling one. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German pastor/theologian who gave extraordinary witness to the cost of following Jesus. He died at the hands of the Nazi regime after plotting to assassinate Hitler. At a time when many in the church looked the other way to Hitler's horrific evil, Bonhoeffer remained faithful to the cause of Christ.
