Church: Community

SUMMARY Our focus for our message series this summer, Church: Community is on what it means to be the church of Jesus Christ. The first few messages are focused on the basics – being a praying, forgiving, healing, and witnessing community. These are basic ways we display how we are different to the world around us. If these behaviors are not evident in our lives, we miss the opportunity to witness of the ability of Jesus to transform us. The…

PLANTED

It is always good to understand what our foundation is, the base we stand upon. It is always good to know what forms that foundation. Over the next five weeks we will look at the Shema, the beginning of the really long sermon in Deuteronomy 6:4-9. It is a text that our Jewish brothers and sisters use every time they worship. They often begin worship reciting a litany based on the Shema which you will learn. All of it will…

STORY

In Acts 22 and 26, the apostle Paul gave his testimony to two different groups as he was arrested. He explained he went from observant Jew to Christ follower.  We all have a story like that to share. In this short series, Randy will share his personal story of how Jesus became his foundation. The following week, Scott will have us examine what our own story might be and how we can be prepared to share it. And on April…

I AM

On the way Jesus asked them, “Who do people say I am?” Mark 8:27 For thousands of years people have been asking “Who is God?” God himself describes Himself as the “I AM.” But what did that mean then? And how is it relevant to us now? As we journey through the Lenten season toward the celebration of Easter, we will bring the I AM to life as we reflect on the seven I AM statements declared by Jesus. In…

More Than A Feeling

God is close to the brokenhearted and will save those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 Like pain is a warning sign to our body, so emotions are to our soul. At our worst, we stuff our emotions deep within like toxic waste that has been buried deep beneath the earth surface or we spew them like lava spurting from a volcano. Either way, be it years later or in the moment, when not handled well our emotions can…

Gifts From Above

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights… James 1:17 The Christmas story is much greater than the moment when Jesus was born into the world. It is a story that spans the ages from the beginning to the present and into the future. It is a story of gifts that were intended to be given by our loving God the Father, through His coming Son and by the Spirit so…
