TO BE THE HEART AND HANDS OF CHRIST
Welcome
New Life seeks to be the heart and hands of Christ in our community. As our name implies, we are living testimonies that Jesus changes people, "just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life" (Rom 6:4).

Exodus -- Who is Yahweh?
In this painting by Darius Gilmont, the Burning Bush is shown within a garden, with Moses standing on a boulder outside the garden, while being addressed by God. He is dwarfed by the scale of everything around him. To the right is a large bastion-like, stepped structure symbolizing the Egyptian establishment. Moses had to step outside of this in order to meet God. Additionally, notice the barrier between the bush and Moses, conveying Gods holy presence that we are unworthy of apart from grace. In the background on another mountain, two people are sitting around a campfire, maybe drinking tea. This is to suggest that the miracle of the burning bush happened in the midst of ordinary life.
“Do not come closer. Take your shoes from your feet, because the place upon which you stand is holy soil.” —Exodus 3:5
