The ritual of The Lord’s Supper (sometimes called communion) was the only ritual given to us by Jesus when He walked this Earth. He affirmed Baptism but He didn’t initiate it.  We have other rituals in the scriptures like the laying on of hands, anointing with oil, and confession of sins but again others gave those rituals to us. This makes the Lord’s Supper unique. The more we study the Lord’s Supper, we are reminded that it is much like a finely cut diamond twirling in the Sun, every turn giving off a different sparkle. Throughout 2024, the Teaching Team will be sharing a different facet of the Lord’s Supper on the first Sunday of each month.

We are starting a new series entitled EKKLESIA.  Ekklesia was a greek word that means "gathering". It was used to describe Roman citizens leaving their homes to come together, usually for a political rally.  The early church adopted ekklesia to describe the gathering of the saints. What is the church? How should we think about our church here at Christ Center? We will be exploring these questions and more. Please join us Sunday morning as the church gathers for the Word, worship and Fellowship.

Church. A word that is often said, not often thought about, and variously described as home, irrelevant, oppressive, boring, or a building. But, the church is actually designed to be, could actually be, is at times, the most amazing space in the entire universe. Seriously, there is no more powerful space in all creation than the space in which the church is. Not because the church is there, but because where the church is, Jesus is, and Jesus, He drives out darkness, crushes oppression, heals wounds, embraces the untouchable, dispenses wisdom , speaks truth, makes dead hearts alive and blind eyes see. What is the church? The most amazing space ever!

Pastor Steve shares an inspirational message on the hope of the resurrection, reminding us of the transformative power of Christ.

We are in a series titled "The Land Between." This place can be unstable—a land of change. Change was happening rapidly before the pandemic, but now it seems that change is occurring at lightning speed: change in politics, technology, global order, and culture. All these changes create a sense of anxiety. Let’s face it, "The Land Between" is full of uneasiness and conflict. We are not where we were, and we have not arrived where we are going. God often uses "The Land Between" to help us develop into more mature Christ followers.
"The Land Between" is the space that exists between two realities. You might recognize it as a place called the gray zone, desert, or wilderness, or perhaps you call it walking through a storm. "The Land Between" is often cloudy and sometimes hauntingly quiet. It is often a seemingly endless supply of roadblocks, speed bumps, and detours.
Join the Christ Center teaching team as they explore what God's Word says about the good and bad things that grow in "The Land Between" and how to weed out the bad while nourishing the good.

God often spoke to people through dreams, challenging individuals like Peter in a dream (Acts 10) and warning Joseph in a dream (Matt 2:13). Daniel, too, experienced dreams revealing future events (Dan 7:1-3). According to Acts 2:17, in the last days, all generations will dream and have visions.

T.E. Lawrence's quote resonates, "All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity. However, the dreamers of the day are deemed dangerous, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, making it possible."
Join Pastor Steve as he looks at a small team of people in the Bible who had a big dream.

This week Pastor Steve will look at the second facet...The Lord's Supper is a picture of Jesus' sacrifice and our responsibility to emulate.
