Stitches: Kaleo--Called to Make Disciples

The mission (and commission) of every Christian church is the same... we are called to make disciples. How do we do this? By following the example of Christ. 

Love at First Sight

Bryan Knurek shares a message the Lord laid on his heart for this morning. 

Stitches: Called to Serve

As God has, and continues, to "stitch" us together into a beautiful tapestry that He has designed for us, He's calling us toward compassion, generosity, and discipleship. Do you desire to love one another the way Jesus has loved us?

Stitches: Ichabod! Where’s the Glory?

From our "Stitches" series.

As seen through the example of Eli, Hophni, and Phinehas, we either bring God glory...or we don't. God is glorified through the faithful hearts of his people. We are ONE BODY, stitched together to glorify Him. Are you--intentionally or unintentionally--a glory-taker? Or a glory-giver?

Ref: 1 Samuel 4:12-22

Stitches: A ”Patchwork” Church

From our "Stitches" series w/ Pastor Brian Richardson.

The Church is a patchwork of different preferences, styles, and personalities. Each patch, or pattern, or block, is stitched together by God into this body, but apart from Christ, we are unable to see the beauty in what God brings together. The good news is, our quilt is not yet finished, as God takes our offerings and stitches a tapestry of ministry and mission together. 

Worship - The Great Equalizer

The trinity points us to the idea of the unity and community of God, as seen in Romans 5:1-5. But what does that mean for a congregation? Unity and Community.

The hope of the glory of God--justification by faith, grace--is the great equalizer that allows us to live into the image of the trinitarian God.

Worship - The New Congregation

Pentecost is an invitation to leave our comfort zones and to find our new congregations.

Worship - Come Out of That Grave, pt. 6

We conclude our series on letting go of "dead things" with this: Unfulfilled expectations leave us lost and angry, while Jesus invites us to find a new focus and a new vision. 

Worship - Come Out of That Grave, pt. 5

This morning we honor our high school graduates, celebrating their achievements and the next season in front of them. At the same time, we take a look at what it means to let go of--or to loosen our grip on--our plans in exchange for what God has in store for us. 

Worship - Come Out of That Grave, pt. 4

Our past experiences can serve as a reference for future decision-making, but can equally cast doubt and bind us in the present. God's desire is for us to lean into His way of seeing our past for the food of our present and future.

Ref: Proverbs 3:5-6 and Romans 12:1-2
