facWEEKLY February 23
We hope you've had a good week, FAC Family! Here are just some of the great things happening in the coming weeks.
Worship This Sunday
MarriedLife Matters “Marriage Needs the Best of Both People” | Week 3 | Ephesians 5:22-33
The apostle Paul is going to take us through one of the most challenging relationship passages in the Bible: husband and wife. Does this relationship have to be represented by conflict and negative emotions? Is Paul putting down women, making them less than their husbands? And what if you aren't married? Can you just skip over these verses?
Let’s read the passage before Sunday and ask God to clear your mind of unbiblical ideas.

Do you have a Christian worldview? Do you know the reason for which you were created? Why is there so much evil? Why isn’t God doing something about it? Do you want answers to life’s BIG questions? Gregory Koukl addresses all of these questions and many more in his book, ”The Story of Reality: How the World Began, How It Ends, and Everything Important That Happens in Between."

Sunday Footnotes:
A gentle reminder to our Sunday family: if the service has already started, please refrain from using the center aisle to enter or leave the worship center, especially during the sermon time. Our camera operator needs a clear view of the pulpit.
