Happy Easter! This day is a day where we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. In spite of the best efforts of the culture to cancel Jesus, they did not. Not only did they fail to cancel Him the most amazing thing happened, Jesus accomplished something incredible on that first Easter morning. He canceled the very things that culture fears the most. This morning, we revisit the day that a dead man stopped being dead, and His life changes everything. This is a Cancel Culture Easter celebration at The Church @ 434 – we are so glad you are here and a part of it!

Cancel Culture is a phrase that describes something happening in the world around us. When something is canceled, it is nulled, ended, voided, done, over, no longer wanted … you get the idea… But today that same idea is also applied to people, that sense of cancel is the basic idea behind the slang meaning of canceling a person. When a person is canceled, they are no longer supported, valued, or considered to exist.
Usually if someone is said to be canceled is because they have done something to offend someone else or taken a position that is not popular with the mainstream of thought.
It might surprise you to find that although the phrase seems fresh, the idea of cancel culture is not new. As a matter of fact, it has been happening for thousands of years.
As we move into the Easter season, we begin this series with a look back in time where the things we discover impact our lives here and now. The first century culture did their best to cancel Jesus. It didn’t’ work then, it doesn’t work now, and that is great news for each of us.

The Gotta Go series has been all about moving forward in our adventure of faith. In this conclusion to the series we are reminded again of the “WHAT’S NEXT” in our lives and we can move from where we are today into where God wants us to be tomorrow.

By this point in our Gotta Go series you see the importance of moving forward and tackling the life that God has placed in front of you. As we have started to wind up the series we have been looking at some common church topics, Bible study and Prayer. In this study we dive once again into our ongoing conversation with the Creator with a look at the importance of His plan and how it works in practical ways in your life.

We are in a series where the emphasis is learning to move forward in your journey of faith. Our goal is to emerge in the future that God has for us with a vision, passion, and purpose for becoming the best version of ourselves, which is of course the person God created us to be. It will not surprise you that for this to happen in your life you are going to have to consult with the Creator. The need to connect to God is essential for all of the things we are talking about to become a reality in your life. So today, we take an honest heartfelt look at ‘the art of the prayer.” Knowing how to pray more effectively is good advice for all of us…so get ready to deepen that walk of prayer today.
