Join us on the First Sunday of Advent as we finish our Tending Shoots/Dressing Vines sermon series.

Life is a gift. What do you do with that gift - the time and resources you've been given - and how would that change if you saw from the lens that God sees through? In the Gospels, Jesus talks about a kingdom that is not of this world - a Kingdom of Heaven - that is active among us and that we can be a part of.

As we move toward the end of another year where the world is shifting, hurting, grieving, and hoping, we acknowledge that much is outside of our control. Yet we look to the things God has given us to steward. What is enough for us to know as believers before we can act in tending these shoots and vines. Jesus takes our notions of order and and control and throws them into disorder. He asks us to deconstruct our current reality to make way for His righteous kingdom without knowing when that time will come. Would you choose to live differently if you knew the world was ending tomorrow.

God is in the business of meeting needs and has chosen to use people to do so. How can we practice generosity in our abundance and our lack? Join Christ City Church as we study 1 Kings 17:8-16 and begin our new sermon series, Tending Shoots, Dressing Vines.

This week we are celebrating new life with three baby dedications! Join us as Robert Grisham explores parenthood and the responsibility of the Christian community in helping raise children.

As we conclude our series on the vision and mission of Christ City we explore what it means to be a refreshing presence in our world. Join us!

What does it mean to reimagine your purpose and create an environment that embraces the change in our lives? In the Gospel, Jesus gave us a new and countercultural perspective on the Kingdom of Heaven - that it is in the here and now - and that you can experience the hope and value that He brings today. It’s a perspective that looks beyond tradition and challenges us to approach life differently and apply our God-given imaginations when things grow stagnant and times of change come.

Are you weary? Does life feel unrelenting with pressure on all sides? At Christ City we take Jesus' counter cultural message of rest and recovery seriously. Learn from the teacher and Messiah a different way to hold the burdens of life, to live without despising your needs, to find something more enduring than a break, deep rest for your soul.

As we continue to explore the vision of Christ City we zero in on the second half of the statement-“knowing God”. Our assumptions about how we can know God as well as the conclusions we come to about what God is like are incredibly influential. These ideas shape our individual actions, values and perceptions of the world and, on a larger scale, dictate the direction of every human culture. Join us as we explore what it means to engage in knowing God at Christ City Church.
