When the Going Gets Tough...

Text: Acts 4:1-31

When the going gets tough...where do you turn? For many in today's society, the answer to this question may be hard to identify. Some may turn to their own knowledge, skills, and experiences. Others may turn to the expertise of others in their lives or those in the media. This week we have the opportunity to learn from the experiences of Peter and John, as told in Acts chapter 4, as they experienced persecution from the leaders of their day. Rather than turning to themselves, they turned to the Holy Spirit. We invite you to join us for today's message to hear what happens when you turn to the Holy Spirit in tough times!

More Than a Sunday: The Ministries of the Church

Text: 1 Corinthians 12:1-27

There are many in the world who don’t truly know their purpose. Sadly, this is often true in the church today as well, but this should not be the case. Every Christian has been adopted into the body of Christ and has been personally given at least one spiritual gift for God’s divine purposes. While this is wonderful, many Christians remain confused about the role and purpose that these gifts play and misunderstand their own importance in the church. We invite you to listen to the message today to discover your role in the body of Christ so that you can start fulfilling His plan and purpose for your life.

More Than a Sunday: The Church and Its Men: Biblical Manhood

Text: 1 Corinthians

We are living in a day when people have surrendered conviction to convenience and have surrendered purpose to a pale existence. And this is nowhere seen as great of a dilemma as it is in the definition of men. The struggle of manhood today has incited chaos in every other area of our lives, the refusal or failure of males to become men as God has defined them. When you look at the scope of the decline of marriages, of churches, and the climate of the culture, much of it can be tied to the absence of men not fulfilling their God-ordained purpose. There is hope and God has a prescription for biblical manhood. Pastor Michael shares a specific challenge to men on Father’s Day.

More Than a Sunday: The Ministry Partners of the Church

Text: Acts 8:25-40

Throughout this series, we have discovered that the purpose and ministry of the Church is about much more than the activities and events that take place on Sundays. In fact, the sun never sets on the purpose and mission of the Church. All over the world, twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week, the light of Christ is shining through His Church in various ways. One of the unique ways that God accomplishes His mission in the world is through ministry partners who advance the Gospel to people and places that are often difficult to reach. These ministry partners have a direct relationship and connection to the local church, but their strategic efforts are focused on bridging the gap with those outside of the Church. We invite you to listen today to consider your role in fulfilling His mission and supporting these vital ministries.
