CENTRAL NEWS & UPDATES
This Sunday
As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ, Advent provides us with an opportunity to consider the meaning and significance of the incarnation. If we do not stop to reflect on this topic, we might slip into embracing ancient heresies that were debated and settled a long time ago. Join us this Sunday at 10 or 11:30 a.m. as we continue our Advent series How Not to Be a Heretic. As we will see, nothing provides more strength, encouragement, or hope than a fresh, clear vision of Jesus.
Jesus Reconsidered
When we turn to the question of universal moral obligations of goodness, does atheism hold up? Without a belief in God, is there a ceiling to how far goodness can reach? Check out the most recent video in our Jesus Reconsidered series, and email us your questions at seniorpastor@centralchurchnyc.org!
Quarterly Newsletter
"I hope you will join me this fall as we seek to cultivate a spirit of gratitude so that we might find our deepest joy and satisfaction in the One who freely bestows every good and perfect gift." Read Senior Pastor Jason Harris' latest quarterly newsletter to the Central community.
Men's Gathering
“Why don’t men like going to church?” Has anyone ever asked you that before? On Thursday, December 5 from 7-9 p.m. in Central’s fellowship hall, the men of Central will discuss this question over a meal. RSVP Monday, December 2.
Children's Christmas Pageant
Our children will help us celebrate the Advent season at Central by performing in our annual Christmas pageant. Join us in the sanctuary on Sunday, December 8 at 5 p.m. for a special performance and a festive start to the evening.
Handel's Messiah
Handel's Messiah has been performed every year since it first debuted in Dublin in 1742. Central Church joined this centuries-long tradition in 2009 and is pleased to present a Christmas season performance of Messiah on Friday, December 13 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 and seating is first come, first served.
