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.

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.

Other Christians are SO important! Paul shows us just how important they are, and how to be a meaningful Christian in other people's lives as he talks about Timothy and Epaphroditus.

We also sent our seniors off tonight, may you each surround yourself with deep Christian relationships!

We are called to live like citizens of heaven. That life is characterized by certain attitudes and actions, has various results, and must be motivated and fueled by the cross.

Sorry we missed the first minute of this recording--it's that:

Christians are free to pray anywhere, anytime, about anything. And we started by thinking about 1. Why is it important? First--we're CHOSEN to pray!

That's where this picks up...

Elder and youth leader Curt Sawyer shares personally and biblically about the life changing power and importance of Prayer and the Word in the life of every Christian.

How do we know what real repentance is? If we keep going back to the same sin, have we really ever repented?
