I'm Fine... But Not Really

Summer 2025

Churches frequently talk about creating authentic community where people are comfortable to express their struggles and receive grace-filled encouragement for life’s journey. This series will encourage us to apply that intention by exploring the variety of emotions expressed by writers of the Psalms.

We’ll learn from the psalmists how to be real, and to really connect with our Lord, whatever state we find ourselves in. We’ll explore ways that the church can become a safe place to speak our struggles, how we can confidently be “not fine” in the presence of others at FRC, and how to (re)capture the hope, peace, and praise that psalmists (also) express.

Bible Reading (July 21 - september 5)

This June, we’re inviting you to read through the book of Judges with us—one section a day, Monday through Friday. Reading through the whole book will help us get a clear picture of the crazy rebellion-rescue cycle we’ll be talking about on Sunday mornings.

Bookmarks with the full reading schedule are available at the Welcome Center, entrances to the Sanctuary, and church office.
