    Living As The Church

     | 5,519 views

    We can't be the church as individuals, yet in the American church today many have the mentality of being lone rangers. If we are going to be the church that God intended we must be committed to the church and to each other.

    Living As The Church Ephesians 4:1-16 INTRO: Have you ever read the Gospels and looked for the church? If you haven’t you should try it sometime. But I can tell you that you will not find much about church in the Gospels. Mark, Luke, and John don’t even mention the church and the ...read more

    Five reasons why the church will endure according to the sovereign grace of God.

    1.Corinthians 16:13-14 "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. Let all your things be done with charity." Why does the church of God endure?

    There is more to the faith and to the work of the church than trying to raise a "nice" army. There are those things that are actually of greater importance.

    Ever have a bad day? That’s a bit of a rhetorical question actually. All of us have.

    The focus of this sermon is that the church not only is about the sending short and long-term missionaries, but that the Church exists for missions and that every Christian is a missionary.

    We have been going through a six-part series called The Nature of the Church. You may recall when I started the series I said that there were basically three aspects that help give definition to the church. I said the church was Christ initiated. The church is a spiritual community. The ...read more

    God brings peace and order to our lives and church, inviting us to trust His presence and follow His clear, simple guidance with settled hearts.

    If you walked in today with a heart that feels hurried, with thoughts that scatter like leaves in a gust of wind, you’re in good company. Life has a way of turning up the volume. Deadlines stack up. Conversations get clipped. Sleep runs thin. And then Sunday comes, and we find ourselves in the ...read more
