Worship Night: Freedom from Emptiness
Saturday, March 14 at 5pm
New City Church, Lawrenceville, GAFreedom from Emptiness will confront the empty wells we so often turn to—success, relationships, approval, or control—and points us to the living water Christ offers. We will see how Jesus pursues us in our emptiness, exposes our false hopes without condemnation, and offers true freedom, forgiveness, and joy. If you’re weary from chasing fulfillment in all the wrong places, then come and join us. Come thirsty. Come honest. Come and drink.
Join us for a night of worship, teaching, and honest reflection as we remember the freedom that only Jesus can bring.
Join Advance x Design Movement for an evening of worship and biblical teaching to uncover how the gospel offers freedom. Our speaker will be Pastor Tony Thomas (Joy of All Nations) and he will be preaching from John 4. Join us on Saturday, March 14th at 5pm.
