Our message this coming Sunday is from Acts 11: 1-18. Sometimes churches can become people's cliques. But God wants the church to invite all people to join Jesus Christ in a life-long, life-changing, and life-giving journey. To be a clique is to be against the very reason our church exists. In this passage, we will see how God spoke to the church to let her know he has room for those who we like and for those who we do not.
Our message this coming Sunday is from Acts 9:32-10:45 “Among Saints and Sinners.” Peter’s ministry sometimes took him to places where things were familiar and he was able to champion the gospel. Other times, to places where he was clueless and he seemed to get in the way of the gospel. In this passage, we will see God pushing his people way beyond the limits of their comfort to break down the walls of separation between Jews and Gentiles and usher a new paradigm to create a church for all nations and all generations.
Our message this coming Sunday from Acts 9 will be entitled “Blind and Brainwashed.” It takes a community of people who share Christ’s compassionate heart to minister to those who are spiritually blind. God wants to use our story to help others realize their need for salvation. As we journey through Paul’s conversion we will see God’s miraculous intervention to give us a new vision for his glory!
We will continue our messages on the book of Acts chapters 8-12 with our new sermon series “Unsettled: Venturing beyond the limits of our comfort zone.” When we venture beyond the limits of our comfort, we will inevitably find people who are very different from us. When the gospel moved from Jerusalem to Samaria, the first disciples found people living in ways that were contrary to everything they stood for. It would be easier to isolate and live in their Christian bubble but that is not what the gospel is all about. When we go beyond the limits of our PREFERENCE, we discover that God is already at work calling those who are under the control of the enemy to turn to Him.
Our own Keith Brister preached and you don’t want to miss what the Lord has given him to share with our church family!
This Sunday, we will finish our reGROUP sermon series in Acts 7 “The Price of Discipleship”. Steven was the first martyr and, in many ways, he was the climax of what it means to be a disciple-maker. Jesus has called us on this journey to become more like him. Christ-likeness is ultimately measured by our...
We continue our reGROUP sermon series in Acts 6. Sometimes need is the call to ministry. Disciple-makers are called to be servant leaders because ministry at its core is defined by service. In this passage, we see how the overwhelming needs of ministry were used by God to show the early leadership the need to...
We continue our reGROUP sermon series in Acts 4 and 5. Obstacles and spiritual warfare pushback seek to discourage believers from their commitment to Christ. When we are being bold gospel witnesses we are noticed in the spiritual world and we can expect opposition. Come this Sunday and see why being in community is more...
We will continue the message Acts 3. Becoming a life-giver starts by acknowledging the difference God’s presence makes amid the needs of a broken world. Meeting physical needs, however, is not enough. Everyone wants to have their physical needs met but God knows that our need is much bigger than just our physical needs. God...
This Sunday, our message will be based on Acts 3. The church is a community of life-givers. Jesus calls the church to be a continuation of his earthly ministry of proclamation and healing. Although God does not always choose to heal someone supernaturally, through the Gospel, the Lord always calls people to receive life through...
