Wed, 15 Feb 2012 10:44:21 -0500

Another interesting, inspiring, difficult passage for us to explore this week. Here 'tis: "13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. 14 Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us..." -1 John 5:13-14 (NKJV) Please come ready to RECEIVE some goodness.

Pt. 15...

Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:04:30 -0500

Powerful stuff coming up this week. Chris Jones'll take the pulpit, working from this passage... "6 This is he who came by water and blood-Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree. 9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God that he has borne concerning his Son. 10 Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son. 11 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life..." 1 John 5:6-12 Please PRAY with us that God will move POWERFULLY through the proclaimation of His Word and also prayerfully consider inviting some NEW with you to Church. Chances are they could use a little of what we KNOW is gonna' be in store for 'em... 10:30AM Sunday... HERE.

Pt. 14...

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:16:26 -0500

We're going to study the 'how to' involved in 'overcoming the World' this week, working from this text: "1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, andeveryone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. Andhis commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith.5 Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?" -1 John 5:1-5 (ESV) C'mon out ready to have God's voice speak directly to you! Can't wait to see you. 10:30am Sunday... HERE.

The AUTOMATIC "YES!" Oh yeah. Bring it. Your text... "1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already. 4 Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 5 They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. 6 We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error..." -1 John 4:1-6 Sunday. 10:30am. HERE. Boom!

Pt. 11...

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 09:27:39 -0500

Love has legs... And we'll PROVE it to you this week, from THIS text: "10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother 11 For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12 We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother's righteous. 13 Do not be surprised, brothers,[c] that the world hates you. 14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. 15 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. 16 By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. 17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? 18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth..." -1 John 3:10-18 (ESV) Looking forward to seeing you, 10:30am, Sunday... HERE.

Part 10...

Tue, 03 Jan 2012 13:30:13 -0500

"The 3-year old Rocket Scientist" We'll wrestle with the question of 'sin' this week. From this text: "4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive you.Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God..." -1 John 3:4-9 (ESV) As usual we'll try to keep the preaching honest, passionate, encouraging and useful. The worship should be immersive and rich. We're looking forward to seeing you. 10:30am this coming Sunday... HERE.

Split the sky...

Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:39:55 -0500

A group of shepherds out in the fields. [or] A group of busy suburbanites out in their lives. Then HEAVEN crashes through. THAT story THIS week from THIS text: "8 Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. 10Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger." 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: 14 " Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!" -Luke 2:8-14 (NKJV) C'mon out and get your world rocked. 10:30am, Sunday... HERE.

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 11:15:14 -0500

Send me an Angel... Sometimes it's just what the Doctor ordered. Here's your text for this week as we begin a 3-week exploration of the events leading up to Christmas... "20But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." -Matthew 1:20-21 (ESV) Looking forward to seeing you. 10:30am, Sunday...

Part nine...

Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:46:58 -0500

You are the SON, the DAUGHTER, of God. This should change everthing... Your text: "Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, we are God's children now, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be; but we know that when He appears we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is.3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself as He is pure..." -I John 3:1-3 (ESV) Come prayed up, open to The Ghost, and having invited someone new (whether they come or not). Much love. One step at a time... 10:30am, Sunday... HERE.

Part 8...

Tue, 15 Nov 2011 08:32:56 -0500

There's a myth out there. "Nothing's ever as good the second time around..." We'll DEBUNK that myth this week, with THIS text: 24Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you too will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25And this is the promise that he made to us- eternal life. 26I write these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you. 27But the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie-just as it has taught you, abide in him. 28And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. 29If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him..." -1 John 2:24-29 (ESV) Looking forward to seeing you, 10:30am this Sunday... HERE.
