More Than a Sunday: The Mission of the Church

Text: Romans 10:9-15

Our culture often identifies a church by their building, meeting location, their style of ministry, or various programs and values. The Church is often viewed through the lens of Sunday morning activities. However, God shows us repeatedly that being a part of the Church is not merely about our Sunday activity, but about how we live our lives every day. In this message, we are reminded of the mission of the Church and are challenged to consider the part we are playing in fulfilling the mission. We invite you to listen today to be reminded of the mission and to consider how God has uniquely called and gifted you to fulfill His purposes in the world today.

When the Church Prays: God Brings Salvation

Text: Acts 16:4-36

Have you ever been in a moment where you were questioning God? Have you ever been in a place where you just didn’t understand what He was doing or why He was doing it? Have you ever felt that you were in a holding pattern just waiting on the Lord? If so, you are in good company. While there are many harmful and negative things that we can do while we are in these moments, it is usually in these times that God has us right where He wants us so that we recognize our total dependence upon Him. And, as we learn to depend on Him, we often discover that He does things in us and through us that only He can do. If you have ever struggled with God’s will and want to understand how and why He is at work, we invite you to listen to this message today.

In this message, we discover God’s blueprints for baptism and see how it applies to our lives today. We invite you to listen today to be encouraged, to reflect on your own baptism, or to consider whether this is the next step that God is calling you to take.
