The need to slow down

CCM artist and chaplain Rick Lee James is our guest this week at Maplewood. Take a few moments to listen in and soak up this message about how we all need to slow down and allow our cups to be filled. Jesus doesn’t expect us to do it in our own strength. He wants to help.

Counting on God: Direct Connection

Don’t be stuck on the outside looking in. When we decide to follow Jesus it opens the door for direct relationship with God. This week at Maplewood, join us as we explore the Bible’s outline for this plan dating all the way back to Israel’s journey to the Promised Land.
