This episode of The Chopping Block focuses in on the upcoming Marriage Retreat and also talks more broadly about our need to intentionally invest in our marriages. Falling in love is easy, but staying in love requires a plan.

This episode of The Chopping Block follows up on Sunday’s teaching about loving our enemies. We explore six “But what about:” follow-up questions we didn’t have time to address Sunday.

In case you missed it, catch the referenced teaching online: Life in the Upside-Down Kingdom.

In this episode, Ben and Dave discuss Tallgrass' small groups ministry, called "LIFE Groups".  LIFE Groups focus on Learning biblical truth, Intercession and prayer, Fellowship, and Extending life to others.  These open community groups are one of our main avenues for care and growth.

Consider taking a next step of connection and engagement today!

We are excited to introduce you to our new Sprouts Coordinator, Elisha Hillegeist, who officially joined the Tallgrass Staff team February 1, 2019. We're excited to have her help give leadership and support to our children's ministry, volunteers, and families. She has a real heart not only to help our kiddos get loved on and meet Jesus, but also to help support and encourage those who serve and teach.

Our second little "Chopping Block" vlog is out! In this episode, we talk about a tool you can use to help you grow spiritually this year: WOTYs (Word Of The Year). We also share tips about choosing, using, and sharing your WOTY.

Our first little vlog is out! We're calling it "The Chopping Block" and our first episode gives tips about how to begin implementing an extended time alone with God once a week (we call it tawG!). Could be a great next step in applying the teaching from Sunday (Jan 13).

Tallgrass is excited to lean in to Word of the Year for 2019!  We're encouraging folks to prayerfully pick a personal spiritual growth word -- something they want to cooperate with God to grow in spiritually over the upcoming year.  We've got lots of online resources to help you pick your WOTY.  Then let's share our WOTYs with each other so we can encourage and pray for one another.

We will be meeting on Sunday morning instead of Sunday evening on three upcoming Sundays, December 23 and 30 and January 6. December 23 we will be with First Free Methodist Church at 10am, December 30 and January 6th we'll be with College Heights Baptist Church at 10:30am.

Take a few minutes to watch/listen to a special announcement from our Elder Team, given Sunday December 2nd, about women in ministry, the 2019 budget, and an 8-month Tallgrass survey.

Tallgrass is excited to jump into Luke for our next study on Sunday evenings starting November 25th!  Join us as we look at the life of our unlikely King Jesus and the crazy, amazing, upside-down nature of his Kingdom -- and ours.
