    Jesus is so much more. He is not a “copy” of God, and he is not a facsimile of God, Jesus is the exact visible image of the invisible God. And as such, He is the author of our family...the family of God.

We aren’t worshipping an event, but a Person. For us to grasp the significance of Easter, we really need to ...read more

     | 4,924 views

    The very reason we gather is in response to the Divine call of God and His purposes. The problem is that the ideas we associate with “church” can come to mean so much less.

    Why are you here? That’s the question I want to begin with today. We might naturally divide that question as to whether it refers to being here in terms of existing… or being here in this gathering. I’m referring to BOTH our purpose for being here in terms of existing… as well as being ...read more
