Fly: Daring New Heights
Scripture: Mark 2:1–5

Some transformations only happen when we’re willing to take risks—when we dare to go higher, dig deeper, and break through the barriers in our way.

In this week’s sermon, Pastor Sarah reflects on the bold faith of four friends who refused to let a crowded house keep them from bringing someone they loved to Jesus. They climbed the roof, tore it open, and made space for healing. Their story invites us to consider how faith, community, and courage work together to lift us—and others—into the presence of Christ.

As our butterfly series continues, we’re reminded that some butterflies can fly over 30 miles per hour. Transformation has energy. Grace has momentum. And sometimes, faith takes flight.
