Our Place In His Story

January 2, 2022

What Jesus is doing here is awakening His followers to the new reality of God’s plan for His people in the Church age.  The reason God’s Kingdom will not be established at this time, is that in just a few days, the Holy Spirit is going to come upon them all, and the Church will come into existence.  Now, through theChurch, God’s kingdom will take up residence in the hearts of ordinary men and women, and together they will have one purpose: to be His witnesses in the world!

Vision Sunday: People Are Still the Mission

October 16, 2018

What manner was this power?  How was it manifested in those first followers?  It was the power of the Holy Spirit who moved them to thirst after the Word.  It was the power of the Holy Spirit who moved them to seek God constantly in prayer.  It was the power of the Holy Spirit who moved them to sell whatever they had so they could share with others in need.  It was the power of the Holy Spirit who moved them to open up their homes and include friends and neighbors in their lives.  It was the power of Christ’s love that compelled them to love one another deeply.  And it was the power who moved in their hearts to tell the good news about Jesus, to talk about the cross. 

Everyday Church

December 24, 2017

at the heart of every Christ follower is this driving passion to follow Jesus – this devotion to the apostle’s teaching. And they followed Jesus together. They went to the Temple courts to hear messages about Jesus. They met together in their homes to memorize the stories of Jesus. Everything about the early church was founded on their passion for Jesus… They couldn’t get enough of Jesus! Can that be said of us?

Our Place In His Story: The Movement Begins Next Door

October 17, 2016

We’re not a building that’s helping people, we’re not programs that are helping people, and we’re not one person who is helping people, but we are people helping people become friends, family and followers of Jesus. We are a church about Jesus, a group of ordinary people who God has recruited to be His grace peddlers in a world without grace.

Our Place In His Story: There Is No Plan B

October 17, 2016

It is Jesus who gave his life for the Church. It is Jesus who joins us together as a Church. It is Jesus who is alive, who dwells in the midst of His people the Church. He is the rock on which we stand. He makes us the new people of God. And He gives us our marching orders. And our marching orders are clear: We are to make disciples of every nation. We are to make Jesus known to every tongue and tribe. We are to make Jesus known by how we love. We are to make Jesus known by how we live. And we are to make Jesus known by sharing our story – and our story is His story.
