“To worship is to quicken the conscience by the holiness of God, to feed the mind with the truth of God, to purge the imagination by the beauty of God. To open the heart to the love of God, to devote the will to the purpose of God.”
— William Temple
1881-1944

Special Series as We Prepare for Fall:
“This We Hold Dear: The Artisan Values” |
|
It’s been an exciting summer of depth and growth for the new Artisan Church plant. God’s been gracious, and we’re in a great position to take on the wonderful ministry challenges and opportunities of our “Fall Grand Opening.”
So it’s important to take seriously the biblical values that guide us on our mission to “encounter God, embrace people, and engage culture in the way of Jesus.” We hope you’ll be part of the adventure! (schedule below)
