Pastor Nate brings the message, "Seize the Day." In Ecclesiastes 9, Solomon brings up the uncomfortable point that we will all die. It's inevitable. Since that is true, there is a Godly wisdom that implores us to enjoy this moment while we have it.
1 Corinthians
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Gospel Unity for a Divided Church” from 1 Corinthians 1:10-17. Could members of a church ever divide over favorite leadership personalities? In Corinth well-known leaders like Paul, Apollos, and Peter were becoming icons of loyalty, and Paul wasn't having any of it. This first section of 1 Corinthians is instructive for Christians concerning the essential center for unity in the church.
1 Corinthians
Pastor Nate brings the message, "God’s Kindness for Imperfect People” from 1 Corinthians 1:1-9. This week we begin a new sermon series in 1 Corinthians. You can familiarize yourself with the book by reading summary notes from a study Bible; reading the book itself, or even skimming the chapters and their subtitles.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "The Practice of Church Discipline” from Matthew 16:13-9; 18:15-20. Just the mention of church discipline can leave Christians feeling uneasy, more than likely because it has been done poorly in so many different contexts. Yet, the practice itself is a responsibility that Jesus has given to His church. So, on Sunday, we will look at this important Biblical practice with humility and aim to grow in obeying our King.
Pastor Stephen brings the message, "Why Church Membership Matters.” Is church membership a modern practice, or a Biblical one? Is it more like being a family member, or a Costco member? Many of us have questions about just how essential this practice is. Many of us may question what it is. This Sunday, we'll look at what Scripture has to say about the believers responsibility to the local church.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "The Practice of Giving." For the next three weeks we will turn to the Bible to look at healthy practices for a local church. This week we are looking at the practice of giving; next week is the practice of membership and serving. The last week we will cover the practice of Biblical discipline. Ask God to use this series in your own life and for His glory in the church.
