Last week, we wrapped up our Clean Slate series with a special snow day service exploring how real, lasting change requires margin (intentional space) in our lives. How margin isn’t just about doing less; it’s about creating space to hear God, respond with courage, and receive the life Jesus offers. How lasting change doesn’t come from trying harder, but from making room to breathe, listen and walk with God.
