Jesus came to set us free. In Him, we are freed from sin and freed to righteousness; freed from our flesh and freed to His Spirit; freed from the things that bring destruction and freed to the things that give life. Listen as Pastor Keith teaches on John 8:31-36.

On Father’s Day, we continued our study of John chapter 8 with a look at Jesus’ relationship with His heavenly father.

After a testimony from Jonathan and Jessica Taylor, leaders of our Phenix City campus, we look at Jesus' second "I Am" statement as recorded in John's Gospel: "I am the light of the world.” This metaphor for Jesus is meaningful at face value, but it is even more meaningful when we understand the context of the Jewish “Feast of Tabernacles."

These words to the woman caught in adultery (John 8:1-11) are the powerful message of a gospel that shatters the darkness of sin, Satan and death. Jesus offers redemption, hope, and eternal life to all.

C.S. Lewis said Jesus either “was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse.” This week, a look at John 6:53-70 and a question each of us must consider when following Jesus gets tough.

To understand the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ feeding 5,000, as recounted by John in chapter 6, verses 1-15, we need to also read verses 25-40. The people come to him seeking more “signs,” but Jesus beckons them to look beyond the signs to the One behind them.

Pastor Derrick Shields teaches from John 5:16-47, with a look at four witnesses that testify to Jesus’ authenticity and authority.

Dr. John M. Perkins’ book “Let Justice Roll Down” planted the seed for what would become one of CCC’s core values, Unity in Diversity. Dr. Perkins himself spoke at CCC’s May 6-7 Converge 2:14 conference and returned the next day for this Sunday conversation with Pastors Keith Cowart and Derrick Shields.

Today we look at two healings. John is intentional in putting these two stories together – their contrasts reveal important truth and also, in each encounter, Jesus speaks something surprising, almost troubling – until we look more closely.

Continuing on last week’s teaching from John 4, Pastor Keith presents an in-depth look at verses 21-24, Jesus’ explanation of worship as something done both “in spirit and in truth.”
