Parkside Kent

This fall we’re updating our service times, starting this Sunday. We hope to serve our church family well by offering more space in our parking lot and pews across both services. We’re also switching times for our kids ministry! For families with younger kids, please consider joining us in our first service at 9:30AM for classes offered for birth–5th grade. At our 11:00 service, we’ll have classes for birth–preschool. See you all this Sunday!

College students are invited to join us at Parkside Kent this fall as we do a three-week course on some foundational Christian subjects.

All three sessions take place after the second service at our church building on Rhodes Road, just a few minutes off Kent State’s campus.

Lunch will be provided for all of the sessions to give us a chance to hang out a bit after church—we like to do this periodically throughout the year. See you this Sunday!

What a lovely afternoon to celebrate two years since our first Sunday morning as a church! Thank you Lord.

What a special morning at Parkside Kent with so much for which we can thank God. Lord, help us to follow Jesus more closely every day.

Thanks for swinging by at Blast-Off tonight! So nice to see everyone. Praying for a good first day of classes tomorrow for everybody at Kent. ⚡️

Welcome back to Kent everybody! Have a good semester!

This Sunday we’ll have Dan Southam joining us at Parkside Kent as Jon trades places at Parkside Heights Church! Looking forward to opening Luke 10 together.

Charles Spurgeon on Matthew 7:12–14: “In this place our King gives us His golden rule. Put yourself in another’s place, and then act to him as you would wish him to act towards you under the same circumstances. This is a right royal rule, a precept always at hand, always applicable, always right… Oh, that all men acted on it, and then there would be no slavery, no war, no sweating, no striking, no lying, no robbing; but all would be justice and love! What a kingdom is this which has such a law! This is The Code Christian. This is the condensation of all that is right and generous. We adore the King out of whose mouth and heart such a law could flow... Lord, teach it to me! Write it out in full in my life!”

Jeremiah 29:13—“You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” Lord, search me and know my heart! Thank you for this new day to follow you where you lead.

Our Summer Book Groups are beginning this evening! Together we’ll be discussing “Honor” by . This is going to be such a helpful resource and encouragement to our people, and we’re praying that it would lead to great conversations over the next few months.
