This study is based on Rev. Will Bowen’s book, A Complaint Free World: How to Stop Complaining and Start Enjoying the Life You Always Wanted. We ALL complain and we'll take a look at what constitutes a complaint, why we complain, what benefits we think we receive from complaining, how complaining is destructive to our lives, and how we can get others around us to stop complaining.

We invite any and all who are interested to join us for a time of prayer Tuesdays at 10am. We will lift up those who are on our prayer list, we will lift up our praises and celebrations, we will lift up the needs of our church, our families, our community, and our world.
