Spring Retreat 2019

“Finding the Holy Place” is a series of messages preached at our 2019 Spring Retreat. Pastor Brandon Briscoe and elders Brian Bustos and Eric Philips teach us about how to posture our life, mind and heart to live holy lives in the sight of God.

Acts 8:9-24

In this message, we meet Simon the Sorcerer, whose wickedness threatened to subvert Philip’s gospel ministry to the Samaritan people. Often times we will encounter those who interfere with or even counterfeit true spirituality causing distractions in ministry. How do we guard against this kind of work and more importantly, how do we guard our hearts from becoming subverters ourselves?  

Acts 8:3-8

In this message, we continue with the persecution of the early church and the dispersion of the Believers into Judaea and Samaria. They did not allow chaotic and dangerous circumstances to quench their passion for the gospel. Instead, mature ministers like Philip carried the message of Jesus Christ with them, preaching the good news to those yet graced with its divine truth.

Ecclesiastes 10

This short message from Ecclesiastes 10 gives us a series of insights into how a congregation of believers can sustain and support the vision and leadership of their church.

Acts 8:1-3

After the martyrdom of Stephen, the church in Jerusalem enters an increasingly hostile ministry environment. The Believers begin to scatter into the surrounding regions taking the gospel with them. In this message we consider a series of significant principles about hope, persecution and spiritual warfare.
