TODAY: Love Does Series Begins

We live in confusing times. Many aren’t sure who to believe or what to believe. If there’s ever been a season to consider the old adage, “Your actions speak louder than words,” it’s today! As His church, our love for Jesus and this world is revealed by our actions not just our words. “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13). Join us this month as we demonstrate His love to a watching and uncertain world.

Love Does T-Shirts will be available next Sunday on campus only for FREE. We encourage you to wear the t-shirt out in public when you are doing an action of love this month! We would especially encourage you to wear them when you participate in LOVE DOES WEEK.

Love Does Books are available on campus only, while suppplies last, for $2. This book by Bob Goff is a complimentary reading during the series.

Love Does Week will be November 14-20, 2021. We are so excited to show love to members of our community! Find out what we have planned for each day and register to participate in events here.

For the One Pledges

The mission of TrueNorth Church is to lead people into a passionate relationship with Jesus Christ. Since TrueNorth launched in 2004, the words of Jesus in Luke 15 have defined who we are and what we are about. “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them – what do you do? You leave the other ninety-nine sheep in the pasture and go looking for the one that got lost until you find it” (Luke 15:4).

For The One is a two-phase capital campaign. The first phase was designed to generate $1.3 million to begin the loan process with our lender. We have completed phase one thanks to the generosity of our incredible church! In phase two, we will be generating the funds necessary for future construction costs. Our leadership team is currently praying and evaluating when the construction process will begin.

Your commitment to this goal helps us plan for our future. To complete a digital pledge card, click here or text PLEDGE to 803.279.1555.

You can learn more about For the One at truenorthchurch.com/fortheone.

2021 Bible Reading Plan

Follow along with TrueNorth’s Bible Reading Plan as we walk through the entire New Testament in 2021. Our plan is designed so that you read one chapter during the week and a short selection from Psalms or Proverbs on the weekends. Pick up a copy of the TrueNorth Bible Reading Plan on campus, download a digital copy from our website here, or follow along through the digital resource on the TrueNorth App.

We are selling NLT Slimline Bibles for $10 and NLT LifeApp Study Bibles for $50 if you wish to read via a non-digital format.

Book Overviews: As we continue on our 2021 Bible Reading Plan together, we will be publishing a brief overview of each book. In less than 5 minutes you will have a quick grasp of what you will be reading, who wrote it, and why it was written. Our desire is that it helps you know your Bible better and get more out of your time in it.
