This Lenten season, adults aged 22 to 39 are encouraged to join this Lenten study of C.S. Lewis’s acclaimed book, The Screwtape Letters. In preparation for Easter, the Lenten season deals with theological issues related to temptation and repentance. The Screwtape Letters is a Christian apologetic novel that is beneficial to Christians as it addresses temptation and resistance through C.S. Lewis’s acclaimed satirical style. We’re confident the discussion will illuminate and edify as we prepare for Easter.

As we enter the Lenten season of reflection and spiritual growth, we invite you to join us for a churchwide Bible study on Romans, one of the most powerful works in the New Testament. Written by the Apostle Paul, Romans explores themes of grace, faith, and transformation. It challenges us to examine our hearts, realign our lives to God’s purpose, and reflect on our relationship with God and one another.

Worship: The Free Will of God
2025-04-17 19:00 - 20:00 | PRUMC, 3180 Peachtree Road, NE, Atlanta, GA, 30305, United States
Holy Thursday
In Romans 6:20-23, Paul contrasts the bondage of sin with the freedom found in Christ, reminding us that while sin leads to death, God’s gift is eternal life through Jesus. This passage highlights the will of God—not as a force that limits us, but as a grace-filled invitation to live in true freedom. This sermon will challenge us to consider the choices we make, recognizing that real freedom is not doing whatever we please, but living in alignment with God’s purpose. When we surrender to Him, we step into a life of righteousness, joy, and the promise of eternal life.

Sunday Worship: Water Is Thicker Than Blood
2025-05-11 | PRUMC, 3180 Peachtree Road, NE, Atlanta, GA, 30305, United States
In Ruth 1:6-19, we see Ruth’s powerful commitment to Naomi, choosing to stay with her and embrace her people and her God, even when she could have returned to her own family. This act of loyalty shows that true bonds of love and faithfulness can run deeper than blood ties. This sermon will encourage us to recognize that God’s family is built not just by birth, but by choice, love, and shared faith. Through Ruth’s example, we are reminded that God often weaves unexpected relationships into God’s greater plan of redemption and blessing.
