Lost Sheep. Lost Coin. Lost Son.
Matt’s message invites us to be rooted in the relationships in which we find ourselves. We look back at three parables to hear a challenge for how we might live faithfully right now.

Music by Joe Kye is woven into the message and the opening song is a clip from his newly composed song called Part Of.
