New Community Church of Tacoma

Joe Miriello teaches on the foundational truth of God's light and order breaking in to the darkness and chaos of the world. As we hear the words of Jesus, and become doers of them, God's light increases in and through us - bringing the goodness of the kingdom of God into our lives, circumstances, and the world around us.

Bo Noonan teaches about our foundational belief of what will happen at the end of the world. What we believe about the end of this world will shape the way we live our lives now. While many people twist the words of the Bible to create a narrative of fear, when we look to Jesus' words we find that his plan, and the plan of the Trinity of God, is not annihilation but restoration. Jesus will all things new! According to Jesus, our end times beliefs should lead us to hope, joy, and the sharing of his good news so that many, many people from every nation, tribe, and tongue will enter in to his eternal family.

Alastair Moyer teaches on the foundation of the Church. The beauty and power of God's people living life together is seen clearly in scripture. As his children, we now have to privilege of living in the current reality of every nation and language being unified in relationships and eternal purposes as those who have submitted our lives to the work of Jesus, our savior.

Bo Noonan teaches on the foundation of salvation through the work of Jesus. This salvation IS for all of eternity future, but it encompasses more than just the future, it is a present truth that we can live in today!

Bo Noonan shares about the foundational biblical truth of original sin. If we have a wrong view of sin we will have a wrong view of everything in the world that matter. The Bible is clear about sin, its effects on humanity and creation, and the solution to it. Sin cannot be overcome by "getting better", rather, it is overcome by Jesus - and our desire for him and his ways.

Wes Swarthout teaches on the biblical foundation of community. From all eternity past, even before Creation, God himself was in a perfect and loving community as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. From the beginning of humanity's creation, we see that we have been created to enjoy and live as a part of that same community. Jesus died to make a way for us to live in that community now and to enjoy it forever. Now, we can live out this truth as the Church! This is not a social club or an emotional support group, but rather a family of people that is invited to enjoy and mirror the beauty of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Bo Noonan teaches on the Biblical call to build a foundation of learning to be with Jesus, be like Jesus, and do what Jesus did through discipleship - or apprenticeship to Jesus. This is not just a cultural construct, but a way of life that Jesus himself showed us and called us to.

Bo Noonan expounds on the amazing and beautiful truth that the God of the Bible is a Trinity. This truth is breathtaking and life-changing, and it is a foundation worth building our lives upon. God the Father has always existed as a Father in perfect loving relationship with the eternal Son and the Holy Spirit. Now, we have been invited into that same wonderful relationship that gives us eternal purpose and life!

Bo Noonan teaches on the foundational truth of the God of Christianity and the Bible. God reveals himself as one who can be both known and experienced. He also reveals himself as one who us self-sustaining and in need of nothing and no one. The humbling (and liberating) truth is that, in and of ourselves, we can't live with him and we can't live without him. Yet, because of our mediator, Jesus, we can be welcomed into his presence to both know him and experience him.

Andy Cooley kicks off our Foundations series by teaching on God's word and the beautiful fact that God spoke and continues to speak today.
