Tom gives his Christmas message.

We were so blessed to welcome Todd & Donna Funk! In 2004, Todd, Donna, and their daughters Alixx & Nikki left the comfort of their teaching careers in the USA and moved halfway across the world to New Zealand… simply because they said “Yes” to God’s call. Since then, God has flung doors wide open! They’ve preached, taught, and trained believers in the USA, New Zealand, Ukraine, Australia, the Pacific Islands, and beyond. Hear their incredible story of obedience, adventure, and Kingdom impact.

Looking back on the series on Hebrews.

The giving of thanks is not a command. It’s an antidote. Comes this Sunday, and let’s learn why God makes it a necessary choice.

Someone once told me, “To understand the nature of God is to understand everything else important in life.” Wisdom, knowledge and understanding are the fruits of a deep relationship with God. Come this Sunday as we begin to close our study of the Book of Hebrews, and deepen your relationship with your Creator.

We are honored to welcome Dr. Jim Masteller as our special guest speaker! He has served as an Army Chaplain for 20 years, a pastor for 9 years and has been the founder and director of CIFT for more than 20 years. He currently continues to provide oversight to CIFT and is part of the leadership team for a church plant and serves on the Board for Overseas Missionary Fellowship International. Come hear timeless wisdom from this Godly man whose life has been poured out in service to Christ and others.

The greatness of a runner is not in how he begins a race, but how he finishes. Paul writes, “Let us run in such a way that we might win” (1 Corinthians 9:24). God certainly sets the course of our lives, however, we are to run the race with the durability to finish well. Does Hebrews 12 give us any suggestions? Come find out this Sunday.

We are all giving a race to run. The good news is, God is our Personal Trainer. It’s not a sprint. It’s a marathon full of obstacles, snares and many hindrances. And although the way is narrow and difficult, there’s more good news! God has set the course and designs us to finish it well. Are you ready to run?

We are born with five senses- to hear, see, smell, taste and touch. They help us make correct decisions. However, is faith a sixth sense? As Pastor Eric pointed out last week, faith also fits the category! Come hear why as we conclude Hebrews 11.

Every great sport has a Hall of Fame. Christianity is no different. Hebrews chapter 11 gives us a thrilling series of examples of faith. However, no one should look up to their heroes more than the ultimate hero Jesus Christ. Sunday will be a lesson on faith, works, and aiming your eyes towards the ultimate prize, which is Jesus Christ.
