Burke Community Church

Join us as we continue our "Serving Like Jesus" sermon series and ask an important question: What does God want from our lives? Following Jesus means more than simply knowing what He has called us to do—it means being willing to follow Him wherever He leads. As we study God’s Word, we’ll look at what it means to recognize God’s calling, trust His direction, and faithfully do the things He has placed before us.

What does God want from our lives?

As we continue our Serving Like Jesus series, we’re reminded that following Jesus is about more than simply filling a role or checking a box. God calls us to lives of faithfulness, humility, love, and service as we seek to become more like Christ.

In this message, we explore what God desires from our lives and what it looks like to respond to His calling with willing hearts. Whether you’re already serving or discerning where God is leading you next, we hope this message encourages you to put your faith into action and take your next step as a disciple of Jesus.

"Everyone who wants to be first will be the last." Jesus' words challenge us when it come to the heart and posture of a servant. Join Dr. Marty Baker as we kick off our 5-week series I Surrender All: Serving Like The Savior.

You can learn a lot about a person by looking at their inner circle. As we wrap up our series in Colossians, we'll take a look at the Apostle Paul's "battle buddies"—the faithful men and women who shaped, strengthened, and advanced his ministry—and discover what their example teaches us about following Christ together.

How you speak to others matters. Today, the Apostle Paul is going to instruct us on how we conduct ourself around other people and give us some insight as to how a changed life impacts our output on the world around us. 

Prayer is more than a routine—it's the lifeline that keeps us connected to God's power and purpose. Join us in Colossians 4:2–4 and answer the call to be devoted, watchful, and thankful in prayer.

Independance Day, hard work, and navigating tough Bible passages on slaves and masters. Plenty to look at this week as we continue on our journey through Colossians. 

Colossians gives us a window into the attributes that foster healthy child/parent relationships. Join Pastor Marty Baker as he walks us through 3:20-21 and continues to unpack the characteristics of new life in Jesus. 

What does it really mean to leave a legacy? Join us as we open the book of Genesis and explore the life of one of history's most iconic fathers: Abraham.

What's the right dynamic for a healthy marriage? Join Dr. Marty Baker as he unpacks Colossians 3:18-19, explores what biblical 'submission' means, and highlights the balance of love and respect — all in the latest installment of The Connection That Counts series.
