Jesus returns to Nazareth with the power of the Spirit! That sounds like some great things are about to happen! This is where he was raised. Yes, the people know of him- but they don't really know him. Join us as Jesus comes home and we ponder the question do you really know Him?

Pastor Jeffrey will be teaching a study titled “Warning of Judgment” from Gospel of Matthew 7:1–6. In this passage, Jesus gives a clear and challenging reminder about judging others and calls us to first examine our own hearts. It’s a powerful lesson on humility, discernment, and living the way Christ calls us to live.

As we open chapter four of Luke, we do so looking at a very familiar battle. It is spiritual, it involves deception and it is one that we all will face. Temptation. That opportunity to do something that is not right, unwise and costly in the sight of God. Jesus was not immune to temptation and we should expect it as well. Join us as we look at the Battle with Temptation.

Believers desire the Lord to be working through their lives and through their church. We read about the early church in Acts doing amazing things for the Lord and how the Lord use them to spread the Gospel around the world. Join us a we look at how God worked using a meeting between Philip and a eunuch and how we can be opened to the Lord working through our lives.

Luke is continuing to show Theophilus proof that Jesus is indeed the Son of God. As we wrap up chapter 3 we will see Jesus being baptized by John the Baptist and voice of God identifying Jesus His Son. Luke will also connect Jesus through his family lineage to show He is indeed the promised Messiah. Join us today as we look at the proof!

We continue on with the message of John the Baptist. He has called people to turn to God and to display the fruit of Godly living. He has given the warning, the axe is at the root and the ones who don't bear fruit will be cut down and cast into the fire. The people respond with a simple question, what shall we do? Join us today as we see that John's answer must be our faithful response.

We are thankful for the focus on Missions work. On this WMU Sunday, we are reminded that all of us carry the Gospel. Our desire is to support and to work to carry the Gospel to those who are in need of it. Join us today as we see the joy and the struggle Paul endured as he proclaimed God's truth! May we undertake a walk worthy of God!

As we move into Chapter 3 of Luke, we see the preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ. We meet the forerunner, John the Baptist, who is preparing the people. He calls for people to turn from their ways, turn to the Lord and bring fruits worthy of repentance. The warning from John is there is an axe that waits for those who don't show fruit. Join us today as we look how John begins "Preparing the Way".

We have all had people that impact our learning. When it comes to our faith, we should desire to grow. Often growing in our faith can feel burdensome and we can be easily distracted. Join us as we address those issues and seek the Lord to teach us!
