New Community Church of Tacoma

Bo Noonan teaches from Mark 1:16-20 in our Gospel of Mark series, where we see Jesus call his first disciples to follow him as his apprentices. As a church, apprenticeship to Jesus is at the heart of all that we do as we learn to be with Jesus, to be like Jesus, and to do what Jesus did.

Bo Noonan kicks off our series through the gospel of Mark, a long look at who Jesus is and what it means to follow him. We start with Mark 1:1-8, where John the Baptist calls the Jewish people to a radical new life of repentance and prepares the way for Jesus.

Alastair Moyer teaches in this one-off teaching on how we can be encouraged and strengthened through times that we feel like we are in the wilderness. He looks at moments from the life of the prophet Elijah and from Jesus.

Bo Noonan finishes our series in Psalm 23 - Jesus Cares - by looking at verse 6. In life, many of us are looking for goodness and mercy, yet we find that, according to God's word, goodness and mercy actually pursue us all the days of our lives.

Andy Cooley teaches through verse 5 of Psalm 23. David, who authored this Psalm, was no stranger to difficulty in his life, yet he could say of God that, "he prepares a table in the place of my enemies". David knew of God's amazing invitation, hospitality, and the feast of grace that was available for him.

This Mothers Day Bo Noonan shares some encouraging words from the apostle Paul that are found in 2 Corinthians 12. Paul embraced the fact that he was weak, which led him to accept more readily the grace of God in his life and circumstances.

Bo Noonan teaches through verse 4 of Psalm 23. If God is a good shepherd, how can he walk us through the valley of the shadow of death? We see that, even in the valley, Jesus still cares by leading, protecting, and guiding us.

Bo Noonan looks at verse 3 of Psalm 23: he restores our soul and leads us in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. What does it look like for God to restore our souls? How can we partner with him in this process as he leads us down paths of righteousness? The answers are found in Jesus.

Bo Noonan looks at verse 2 of Psalm 23, which tells us the how of "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." We can find rest and relief from fear as we believe that Jesus Cares about us. Rather than grasping for control, Jesus' desire is that we trust him enough to find our contentment and rest in him.

Bo Noonan kicks off our 6-part series through Psalm 23 called "Jesus Cares." King David wrote this psalm from his life experience growing up as a shepherd. Where did his mind go in the midst of difficulty? It went to the place of understanding God as his shepherd in life, verse 1 says "The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want." What does that mean? Join us as we take a look.
