Book Recommendation: King's Cross
This is a book about Jesus—Jesus as he is portrayed in the Gospel of Mark. Keller says, “It is an extended meditation on the historical Christian premise that Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection form the central event of cosmic and human history as well as the central organizing principle of the world—and how we fit into it—is most clearly understood through a careful, direct look at the story of Jesus. My purpose here is to try to show, through his words and actions, how beautifully his life makes sense of ours.” Understand Jesus and you will understand the world: that is the central premise of the book.

Smaller Group Roundup 2011: One Size Does Not Fit All
Let's face it...Parkside is a big church. With almost 3,000 people attending Sunday services, it's easy to feel a little lost in the crowd. How can you make a big place feel smaller? It's easy! Join a smaller group! As we look toward Building into the Next Generation, we believe that developing solid, Christ-centered relationships is an essential building block for growing Parkside's church family.
As fall approaches, our ministries are ready to get back into full swing. We invite you to check one out that's right for you!

We rely upon computers, cell phones, and the Internet for communication, commerce, and entertainment.

As he spun around in his chair, he saw a passenger jet just outside his office window and exclaimed, "Man, that guy's low!" In an instant, the hijacked plane slammed into the north tower of the World Trade Center just a few floors above.
