A gospel without signs and wonders is a powerless gospel. Jesus said signs and wonders would follow those who believe. But what happens when people start to follow signs and wonders rather than The Wonder-Worker? Pastor Drew concludes our series "Authentic Fire" with a challenge to seek Jesus above all else.

Many Christians have wrestled with questions on divine healing or God's power in the here and now. In many ways Christianity has been reduced to a philosophy or Sunday morning "churchianity" rather than a gospel that is relevant to the issues this world faces everyday. The truth is God still heals and is awakening His church again to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit everyday.

In the wake of the unrest, pain, and chaos we need to hear what God is saying. If there was ever a time when the people of God needed to be attentive and sensitive the to the Holy Spirit it is now. In light of that truth, we cannot allow for extremes or abuses in the prophetic rob us from what God is saying and doing. We must press in for an authentic move of God.

All throughout history God has given a people the opportunity to respond to His purposes. Many times, however, people are caught up in the comfort and safety. We now find ourselves in a time of stirring where God is awakening us to His purposes! Will we respond to the call?

This gospel is a gospel of grace! It is what saves us and empowers us. But what happens when we only emphasize God's grace and not the rest of who God is? We get a sloppy grace. What happens when we only talk about God's call to holiness but not grace? We get legalism. This week, Pastor Tony shares his heart about true grace and how we can avoid falling into these extremes.

The Gospel is really good news! For the hurting, the sick, the sinner, the poor and rich it is redemption and restoration. But, there are some who would seek to use the good news of the Word and take it extremes and use it for their own selfish gain. This week Pastor Drew exposed the error of the Prosperity Gospel and brings us into alignment with the true Gospel of peace, healing, power, and suffering.

This morning we start a new series entitled, "Authentic Fire". One of our core values as a church is authenticity. We are contending for a move of God's Spirit and a mighty outpouring, but we want the real thing. Not something man-made or contrived, but a genuine move of God. Pastor Drew will give us some insight how to avoid the inauthentic.

As we conclude our series "Ready for Our Hope", Pastor Tony encourages us with a message on the temporary nature of this life. God is calling us to be a good steward, to be lovers of truth, to remain focused and diligent, and to never lose our hope!

We are in the midst of God's story! And, that story isn't over. It is still being told. One day there will be a new Heaven and a new Earth and we will be with Jesus. This is a hope that we can hold on to and will influence how we live our lives right now. Join us as we continue in our series "Ready for Our Hope".

Continuing in our series " Ready for Our Hope", Pastor Drew gives us some encouragement as believers on how to navigate thoughts and ideas surrounding The Last Days.
