As Christians, our primary identity is to be as members of the body of Christ. This has implications for our participation and identity in local expressions of the universal church, and it has implications for all our other identities, like those we have as citizens of nations.

This talk is setting up the reason for our monthly men's discipleship meeting, what discipleship is about, why it takes work, and how we are seeking to help and encourage the men of Calvary Bible Church Grand Junction to grow in the means of grace.

In part 3 of our "Church Essentials" series, Pastor Jess Miller looks at what it means that the church is one new man and implications that has for our unity.

In Part 2 of our Church Essentials Series, Pastor Jess Miller looks at Acts 2:1-4 to show that the church is a new humanity comprised of Jew and Gentile, and yet distinct from Israel. At Pentecost, the church was begun and is the fulfillment of many of God's promises.

This sermon is the first in a short series examining what the church is. The church belongs to Jesus, it is future, and it is new.

This is the second part of our short new years series on Jesus teaching about money, possessions and provision. In this message, Pastor Jess focuses in specifically on anxiety about these things, as that is what we are prone to, but Jesus teaches us not to be anxious about these things.

In this first of two New Years messages, we look at Jesus teaching his disciples about what it means to follow him in relationship to our money, possessions and provision.
