Growth Point Church

Sometimes God adds by subtracting. It's such a complex concept but losing is often the road towards winning. In week 2, Pastor Mario shares the story of how Gideon lost many, but gained victory with what was left.

We often look at what we have as not enough for what God wants to do. When God asks something from us, He knows exactly what we have. The lesson about the 2 fish and five loaves is about trust. In week one of the Less Is More Series, Pastor Mario shares powerful insights from this story.

You are the preacher your friends are looking for. Yes, read that again. How will your friends and family be reached unless the gospel is preached? In week three of our Framily Series, Pastor Mario shares not just how to preach, but what to preach to your Framily. They are waiting on you, let’s get started. 

we had all experienced sickness in our lives. There's also times when that sickness isn't ordinary or something easy to get over. Sometimes it's the small things that hinder us from big things. Simon's mother-in-law is sick and the only thing he knows to do is to get her to Jesus. Pastor Mario teaches us what to do when our house is sick.

We all could use a friend. The question we must ask is, will anyone say that we’ve been a friend to them? In week one of our Framily series, Pastor Mario shares how a guy named Philipp became a friend to someone who needed direction. This week, let’s be a friend to someone who desperately needs one.

We all have great moments in life that we’d love to relive over. Those are the moments we’d love to keep bottled in the memory of our minds. The disciples were challenged with this very thing, but were encouraged not to stay gazing.

Grace begins where religion ends. Religion is rule based. Grace is relationship driven. Jesus shows us in his interaction with Thomas that grace knows no limits. As grace is one of our core values; this message explains its significance to God, us, and our mission as a church.

Growth Point has three core values represented in the words; Growth, Grace, and Gather. Pastor Mario uses Peter's experience in denying Jesus to explain how we can grow from failure.

Jesus had been in the tomb for three days and his followers were still grieving. In their grief they still came to the tomb looking for Jesus. Many are grieving all around the world, but Pastor Mario encourages us to keep looking for Jesus.

We all have people and things that we hold on to. It's common to think that we can do a better job with them in our hands than anyone else's. Jesus asked the disciples to go get him something that was tied up. Why? Because he wanted to use it. Pastor Mario teaches a Palm Sunday message about the power of releasing people to God.
