"Reorient" 5.12.2013

"Reorient"
from Ezekiel 36:24-28

Does trying to walk with Jesus just seem like a series of triumphs and failures, the ups and downs of which leave you exhausting?

What if we considered the fact that just as Jesus provides for our salvation by the cross, He also gives us all we need to follow Him and stay oriented to Him by His Holy Spirit.

"Reanimate & Unite" 5.5.2013

"Reanimate & Unite"
from Ezekiel 37:1-14

As we continue our 4 part series on the importance of the Holy Spirit and our need for the Spirit in who we are in Christ and what He calls us to do, we look this week at Ezekiel 37:1-14 and Acts 2.

Is it possible that we have learned how to operate without allowing the Spirit to move within us?

If so, then we are merely a form; merely a framework of who God wants us to be as His people and what He calls us to as His church…

"Drawn to Renewal" from 4.28.2013

"Drawn to Renewal"
from Ezekiel 36:24-28

We live in a culture that teaches us to expect more, and promises more with each upgrade and with each renewal...

perhaps we are seeking MORE from the wrong places...

what would life begin to look like if we allowed the Holy Spirit to draw us to renewal each day?

"Beyond ME, a new WE"
Wrapping up our 2013 Missions Celebration, we have the privilege of hearing Chris Heuretz of Word Made Flesh International speak about the beauty and importance of true community and the role each of us play in it; and the role it plays in bringing hope to the world.

"Why Wait?" from 4.14.2013

"Why Wait?"
from Matthew 28:16-20 and Acts 1:4-5

In Matthew 28 Jesus tells His disciples to "go and make disciples..."
In Acts 1 Jesus tells His disciples to "wait."

There is nothing that the Disciples possessed that would have given them any hope of success in accomplishing what Jesus was asking them to do in making disciples...that is without the Holy Spirit!

Their willingness to wait for the promised gift of the Holy Spirit changed everything and opened up the world to them...

Why have we stopped asking for that which is promised and waiting for that which is given?

"The Kind of Church..." 4.7.2013

"The Kind of Church..."
from Luke 4:16-21

What kind church is God calling us to be?

If we follow the example that Jesus set, then there is a specific call on us as found in Luke 4.

"A Better Plan" (3.31.2013-Easter Sunday)

"A Better Plan"
from Matthew 27:62-66 and Acts 2:22-24

If we were to examine most of the conflict that happens in our lives, we would find that it comes when the things we seek and the decisions we make are predicated on placing ourselves "at the center of the universe"...when there is only One Who is deserving of such a place of honor.  

In all of the goals we set and plans we make, imagine how things might look different if the glory of God were our central motivation?

In the Cross and an empty tomb, the Lord has provided a way into that kind of life…

"Colossians: Every Opportunity" (3.24.2013)

"Colossians: Every Opportunity"
from Colossians 4:2-6

In our 10th and final week of our Colossians Series, we look at Colossians 4:2-6, and consider the difference between being a "consumer" and an "investor" when it comes to the invitation of Kingdom living.

From, "I have not stopped praying for you," to "Devote yourselves to prayer...and pray for us," Paul is inviting us to take ownership of this journey with Jesus.

"Colossians: Family Values" (3.17.2013)

"Colossians: Family Values"
from Colossians 3:18-21

In week 9 of our series in Colossians we look at Colossians 3:18-21 and Paul's instruction for the family.
When these words were taught, they were revolutionary; they changed the culture of the family and shaped the culture as a whole.

What if the same thing were possible today? Could our families be transformed?
Could that transform the culture around us?

"Colossians: Culture" (3.10.2013)

"Colossians: Culture"
from Colossians 3:12-17

Week 8

This new life we have in Christ is not only meant to have bearing on our hearts, but also on our relationships...

This can be a challenge, especially when we feel like our relationships often times cause us the most hurt.

As we look at Colossians 3:12-17 and the culture of this Kingdom that we are a part of in Christ, we need to consider that perhaps we need to stop trying to fit this culture into our lives, and consider what it might look like to fit our lives into this culture.
