Mission City Church w/ Pastor Josh Hershey

Join us as we continue our journey through the Nicene Creed and the fundamentals of the faith. Christ on the cross is first and foremost something that He endured FOR US. It is an atoning sacrifice, a ransom for many, it delivers us from this present evil world, and the blood shed on the cross cleanses us from all sin. But it is also something that we are called to share in. To imitate Christ, pick up our cross daily, and to suffer for His sake.

Join us as we continue our journey through the Greatest Song of All Time. At this point in the Song, as the bride is self-introspective and meditating on all the LORD had just spoken over her, her soul becomes like the mighty chariot of Amminadab. She becomes a general in the LORD’s army doing the LORD’s work! After that, she performs "the dance of the two armies.” The dance of the human and angelic armies! Let our souls be made like the chariots of Amminadab today as we meditate on our LORD and let us praise and dance before Him with all the angels of heaven!

How do I know Jesus loves you? The Bible tells me so! In Song of Songs 6 Jesus gives a powerful speech about how He views His bride. He is head over heels in love with her and he describes how she is without compare! She is beautiful like Jerusalem and at the same time astonishingly frightful like a mighty army! Her beauty has not fades even in the midst of her failures! Join us as we worship the LORD and experience the ever constant love of our LORD.

"I am my Beloved's, and He is mine." This is the heartfelt declaration of the bride of Christ after experiencing persecution and a night time season of the soul. After declaring the glories of Christ she realized that He was always with her! What an important truth to have imprinted on our heart! We are Christ’s by the Father’s gift (John 17:6). We are Christ’s because He has purchased us with His blood (Acts 20:28). We are Christ’s by marital union (Romans 7:4). We Christ’s by our own surrender and consent (Romans 12:1). Join us as we worship the LORD and dive deep into these glorious truths!

Join us as we continue our series on the Nicene Creed. What can the virgin birth teach us about our salvation? What can Mary teach us about the Christian life? Why is it so important to confess that Christ was born of the Holy Spirit AND the virgin Mary?

Join us as we worship the Lord and continue our journey through the Song of Songs. In chapter 5 of the Song the church declares the majesty and glory and loveliness of Jesus. She ends by saying, "Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend" (Song of Songs 5:16). Is Jesus 'altogether lovely' to you? Is He your 'beloved' and your 'friend'? Does Jesus excite your soul like He excites the soul of His bride in Song of Songs chapter five?

Join us as we worship the Lord and continue our series through the Nicene Creed. Why is it important to confess that Christ “became incarnate for our salvation”? What does it mean for salvation to encompass the material as well as the spiritual? How does this effect the way we live our lives today? How does the biblical view of spirituality contrast with worldly philosophies of spirituality?

Join us as we worship the LORD and continue our journey through the Greatest Song of All Time. We will be discovering how Christ responds to His beloved Bride when she becomes lazy or lukewarm like the Laodiceans. While the bride sleeps, the Song says concerning Christ, “He knocks, saying, ‘Open for me, my sister, my love, My dove, my perfect one’” (Song of Songs 5:2). Sweet words of love drip from the mouth of our LORD! He desires constant communion with us! Let us open the doors of our heart wider to Him today!

Join us as we worship the LORD and continue our journey through the Nicene Creed. The Son of God ‘came down’ to save. He is mighty to save! He took on flesh in the virgin Mary. He is one who redeems wholes and not just souls. He is One who redeems us from anti-body wicked ideologies. He came to give us LIFE and the fulness thereof!

After extolling the church’s beauty and saying, “You are altogether beautiful, my love; and there is no spot in you”, Christ goes on to say, “You have RAVISHED my heart with one look of your eyes.” He then describes the church as a beautiful and fruitful ‘secret garden’ with ‘hidden springs’ throughout. A picture of being made fruitful by the gift of His Spirit. Christ is head over heels in love with you and me! We must allow His love and Spirit to anchor every aspect of our being. Join us as we worship.
