Living the Christian life as a follower of Jesus is not any ordinary life. We are called to a higher standard. We are called out to be separate from the world to be peculiar people. Different in a good way to shine our lights so brightly to season the world with salt so that they can taste the difference of life being in union with Christ. Join us this week as we come together to discover what it means to live a higher standard.
There are many in this world that are trying to fill the God-sized hole in their lives with everything else. They are trying to find true freedom. As followers of Jesus Christ, we know that True Freedom is found in Him, being united with Him, joining Him in His work in the world. Join us this weekend as we talk about what it means to Finding True Freedom.
Do you know what most people are doing during these uncertain times? They are making home improvements. While we are all making improvements in our living environments, the Lord draws us to make spiritual improvements. Come let us enter into worship and see the transforming work of God in our lives as we surrender to His plan.
We are studying what it means to L.E.A.P. toward God’s plan and purpose for our lives and as a church. This week, we top it off by maintaining focus on what God longs to do in us and through us.
Jesus reminds us in a parable that we must build our house, our faith, our life upon the solid rock and not shifting sand. Today we are reminded and encouraged about Jesus is the Rock!
Who owns your heart? Where does your allegiance lie? The world says so many things that sound like the truth but there is One who we ought to bow the knee and give our allegiance, and He is Jesus. We can be patriotic and be proud to be an American, but we must know and understand our citizenship is in the Kingdom of God.
We gather together to celebrate communion and remember and proclaim that Jesus is the cure for our social ills of the world today. He is the Savior of the world and we are equipped to go out and tell of how He has changed our lives so that others may know the good news of our risen Lord.
Often times we ask God, “How Long, O Lord.” And He is asking us to remain patient for His time, for His will to be done. We do not know how long, but we do know the One in whose hands we can place our today, tomorrow, and future. Join us for worship.
