NEED, HEART DIAGNOSTIC, IDENTITY

If we want to learn anything about honoring God in our singleness and in our pursuit of marriage, we need to know how fully loved and cherished we are in Christ. A non-fragile identity is the glorious basecamp for our trek of walking with God in all seasons of life.

WHAT THE BIBLE IS: “The Greatest Story Ever Told, Being Told”

Before we jump into the storyline and themes of the Bible, we have to know what the Bible IS. It is not an encyclopedia, self-help book, merely historical textbook, or a fiction novel. It claims supernatural power to transform us.

Let's joyfully enter into the powerful epic of the Bible, that we would be forever changed.

A few times each year we have youth group dedicated to prayer. This week we spent some time thinking about developing a normal culture of praying together and praying often.

God wants us to keep living like heavenly citizens,

and there are 5 commands to obey that will keep our lives prioritized on the right things....

1. Make Your Relationships at Peace
2. Make Your Heart Rejoice
3. Make Your Gentleness Known
4. Make Your Prayers Heard
5. Make Your Thoughts Pure

We need God's regenerating and empowering work to obey these commands that cause our life to be about what matters most. Lord help us walk in the freedom you've purchased to live like this!

In this last of Jadon's series to us in Revelation's letters to the churches, we see an example of a healthy church who proclaims Christ no matter the persecution.

May we be like them and eagerly await our eternal reward!

Jadon brings us the Word from another of Jesus' letters to the 7 churches of Asia. Check it out!

MP: Being a Christian means you believe and you live like Jesus changes everything about you!

An enflamed heart always follows an informed mind. When we meet Jesus our thinking changes instantly and forever, and so do our lives!

1. Believe like Jesus changes everything about you.
2. Live like Jesus changes everything about you.

Our own summer pastoral intern, Jadon, started a 3 part series through some of the letters to the churches in Revelation.

Despite all their wonderful teaching and good deed, Ephesus had lost their first love! This text calls us to Remember, Repent, and Respond so that we would never lose our love for Jesus.
