His life was transformed by the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ and he became one of the leaders of the early ...read more

    ENGAGE/TENSION This morning I’m going to preach on a section of Scripture that I don’t particularly like. And my guess is that if most of you are completely honest, you don’t like it either. That’s because it flies in the face of our natural tendencies. Submission is not a ...read more

    Longing For Belonging

     | 8,121 views

    Why am I here? Where do I fit in? What is life all about? Who cares about me? Ultimately, we find these answers in the one who created us. God wants each of us to find a place of belonging in His family.

    Longing for Belonging Philippians 3:17 - 21 17 Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you. 18 For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19 ...read more

    based on 31 ratings
     | 11,160 views

    Christians are more and more known for what we are against than what we are for. This confuses people about what the gospel is really about. Paul gives some very practical advice on how to be practically spiritual in an unsaved world.

    How can we sum up Titus? It’s as simple as 1-2-3. 1. Find a good Biblical model and follow it (chapter 1) - Personal Faith 2. Allow yourself to be inconvenienced in order for the gospel to be attractive (ch 2) - Interpersonal Example 3. Seek to cooperate and assist others around you by being a ...read more
