Ancient Mission: Living the Mission Locally

Picture 13 believers in a Mansfield blockhouse in 1816, pouring their hearts into God’s mission. That’s where Linden Road Presbyterian Church began, and 206 years later, we’re ready to write the next chapter.
Join us for Part 2 of Ancient Mission: What’s Next?, “Writing the Next Chapter: Living God’s Mission in Mansfield.
To do this we need to explore how to use our gifts, take bold steps, and engage our church to reach Mansfield for Jesus.

What Happens to Your Body After You Die?

In the Apostle's Creed... in it's final words it helps us answer the question humanity has wrestled with for centuries. Do we simply vanish? Is it just our spirit that continues?
In the final message of our "I Believe" series, we tackle this ultimate mystery head-on, unpacking the profound truth of "the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting." Join us as we find courage and comfort in God's ultimate victory over death.

I Believe: Can Ancient Words Give Life?

This week we step off on a new series "I Believe" where we'll be diving into the Apostles’ Creed—a timeless declaration of faith that’s anchored believers for centuries.
In a world of anxiety, hurt, and overwhelm, what do you stand on?
What do you truly believe? Starting with “I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth,” the Creed offers unshakable truth for today’s challenges, shaping your identity, relationships, and eternity.
We will also honor the moms and women in our lives this Mother’s Day, we see their love reflect God’s heart, guiding us to His truth.
Please join us as we unpack the Creed line by line, building a foundation on the God of the Bible. Worship, reflect, and declare with us: Credo—I believe!
Tell us in the comments: How does your belief in God shape your life?
