In this sermon series we will walk through Advent by exploring the unexpected way in which God moved---dare we say conspired?--- to save the world. Normally when we think of “conspiring” against the world we think espionage and spies and strength and might to fight others to get our own way. However, when Christ conspires against the world He does it in a way to save the world… and He does it in the most unexpected of ways… with the most unusual of “weapons”--through hope, peace, joy, and love. Join us in this sermon series as we move towards the birth of Christ where Christ will move in every way except the way we expected. This Christmas season, expect the unexpected.

We see what Real Thanks looks like as we study the 10 lepers.

Let’s face it, when it comes to living with others, and doing life with others, it can have its share of trying moments. Even people we like can get on our nerves! How much worse is it when we may not like them? Yet God calls us to do life together… God has designed us to do life together… God desires us to do life together. So how do we do it? How do we effectively share in community and share in life together? Join us in this sermon series as we seek to explore how to maximize and appreciate our time together with each other. In a world that focuses upon “me, me, me” yet leaves us wanting, come discover a life that focuses upon God’s idea of “us, us, us” and be surprised at what is discovered. We tend to think of community as a “nice” but not “necessary” part of life. Come discover why life together is not only fulfilling, but essential for “full living” and the hope of the world. And come be surprised what happens when we let our walls down, and let others in.

In this sermon series we will focus on how EVERYTHING is meant to be useful and beneficial in the building of God’s kingdom… from the “obvious” spiritual practices of prayer and Bible study to the less obvious ones of how to use our resources and dealing with facilities. In this series we will focus upon the upcoming Vision Initiative with the theme of God’s Vision being Our Future and the call to stewardship this brings. But in doing this we will remind everyone that everything is meant to be spiritual and used for God’s purposes. So as we talk about money and facility improvement and the hiring of people for jobs, etc. we will recognize how these things are indeed spiritual and meant to be used for the glory of God. In many ways we will also explore a theology of money and again seek to understand how something as “slippery” as the usage of money is meant to be spiritual in nature in order to glorify God. And in this series we will examine how our treatment of finances challenges us in the depth of our discipleship.
