Current Teaching Series

We are excited to study a challenging and significant book this summer: 1 John.

In the midst of a confusing world, confidence can be hard to find – especially in our spiritual lives. Can we know with certainty that we are really walking with God? 1 John gives three important proofs: our lives have been changed, we love God’s people, and we believe in Jesus and what he did on the cross.

John wrote this letter so his readers may know that they have eternal life – in other words, that we can be confident! Join us each Sunday at 10 a.m. for this important study, and walk with us as we seek to live out the clear teachings of 1 John.

Third Anniversary Picnic

This Sunday (July 5) is the 3-year anniversary of Venture Church. We will celebrate with a Church Picnic at Los Rios Ranch. Families can bring food or purchase lunch from Los Rios. Please bring blankets and/or lawn chairs, and come ready to enjoy food, games, and slightly cooler weather with our church family. The Worship Service begins at 10:00 in the Chatigny Community Center, and we will caravan to Los Rios following the service. Join us from 12:30-3:30 at Los Rios this Sunday!
