Jennie Pelletier: Feel Like You’re Not Good Enough?

Hello. My name is Jennie Pelletier and my husband Joe and I just recently moved to Chelmsford. Have you ever felt like your not good enough or smart enough or strong enough or pretty enough. I have.

I think that is the very first…

Monica Romig: Through All The Choices

Hi, my name is Monica Romig. I live in Chelmsford with my husband Jonathan and I’m a Bible teacher at Bradford Christian Academy. I did not read Harry Potter. I was raised in a Christian home, and I have personally believed in Jesus my whole life. When I was younger, I was what you might call, “sheltered” by my parents, mostly my mom, and as a result I did not listen to the backstreet boys or Britney Spears. I did…

Aaron Tang: Buddha and the Only True God

My name is Aaron Tang. I was born and raised in Hong Kong till my early teen years. Although I have a Chinese heritage and background, my parents always say I am Americanized and have very little understanding of the Chinese culture. But in school, my friends only saw a Chinese boy who probably is good with math and know Kung-Fu. My journey of knowing Christ took several years with many cultural collisions and through many Christians in my life.…

Book Recommendation: The Rest of God

On March 26th, we’re starting a brand new series called Sabbath & Simplicity: How To Rest. This is not only a great opportunity to invite a friend or coworker to church, it’s a great time to dive deep into the subject yourself. A really good book I’m reading is The Rest of God: Restoring Your Soul By Restoring Sabbath by Mark Buchanan. I highly recommend you pick up a copy as we go through our series. In Christ, Pastor Jonathan

Vitaly Borodkin: Transformed by God’s Grace

      My name is Vitaly Borodkin and my story begins in Moscow, in what was then the Soviet Union in the 1980s. I knew very little about God when I was young because the communist party discouraged the discussion of religion. Sometimes I saw Orthodox churches on the streets and asked my parents about them, only to receive very few answers. At that time, my parents were most likely agnostics, not knowing much about Jesus and the Bible.…
