Today, we begin a new six-week series on the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. Yes, we preach, teach, talk about Jesus all year long, but we have to be careful that we are not just filling our heads with knowledge. Our goal will be to answer this question with confidence, “WHO DO YOU SAYContinue reading “The Most Important Question”

What’s Holding You Back?
“Why do people get uncomfortable talking about stewardship?” This was a question we talked about last week. Last week we started a 3-week series on stewardship. We talked about not worrying about what we don’t have, or controlling our resources because everything we have is because of God and really is God’s anyway. Here isContinue reading “What’s Holding You Back?”
Loving to Life Pt 5
SHOW GOD’S LOVE DAILY As we continue in loving people and organizations to life, we remember we have been praying and seeking God’s direction, we have been allowing the people to be their real selves without judgement, we have been meeting with people in small groups, and we have begun a visioning process for theContinue reading “Loving to Life Pt 5”
Loving to Life Pt 1
You’re in a new organization, work, church, community. You have studied the demographics and have learned about the history of the area. You are excited about the possibilities. Maybe you move to an area that you are not as keen on living in. You see a bleak future, or maybe one that seeks to keepContinue reading “Loving to Life Pt 1”
More To Your Story
There is an interesting line in Genesis 37 that says, “This is the account of Jacob’s family line.” (Genesis 37:2 NIV) This is actually a pretty significant line. Have we paid attention to it before? We can think it is talking about the people that descended from Jacob, and it does; but there is moreContinue reading “More To Your Story”
I Saw God at the Water Treatment Plant
Just because we are in somewhat “ordinary” situations does not mean God has not revealed himself. Pay attention to where and how God is revealing himself, even in the unexpected places.
Just Watch
Click here to read Acts 19. When you walk into a room, what happens? Are you one of those people that others are drawn too? (It is okay if you say yes 🙂 ) I am very confident you have been gifted and blessed with some gift that God has given you because the peopleContinue reading “Just Watch”
Connecting Points
Click here to read Acts 17. “All you need to do is to teach that person how to…” This sounds simple enough; but is it really that easy to get people to learn new things? Just teach them? When we teach, we are actually connecting the person to what they have seen, what they haveContinue reading “Connecting Points”
Strength to Stand
Click here to read Acts 14:8-20. The passage today has many things going on. First of all, we see Paul and Barnabas come upon a man who was crippled in his legs and couldn’t walk. Paul heals the man who is able to walk. The people in the crowd see the miracle and call PaulContinue reading “Strength to Stand”
Confidence in the Calling
Click here to read Acts 14:1-7. It’s the same things that have happened to Paul and Barnabas before. People are undermining the truths they are speaking and are doing everything they can to discredit and remove the “threat” other leaders consider Paul to be. Have you experienced this kind of situation in your life? BeingContinue reading “Confidence in the Calling”
