What does it mean to be salt and light? Why does Jesus talk about being salt and light? Pastor Jerrod shows us what Jesus meant by that teaching. And how being salt and light makes up the identity that God see us as who we are.

Scripture: Matthew 5:13-16

We are one body, but we are also the church. Jesus started building His church up this rock, whom he had named Peter. Through one person, Jesus began his ministry of BIG C church. Pastor Kelly shows us what being the church means, what it means to go to church, and doing church. Here’s the next “we are” statement, which makes up our whole identity.

Scripture: 1 Samuel 16:18b

We know from past weeks who God says He is, and Jesus’s I am statements when He was down here on earth with us. And we dove into who we were as an individual, and what God says we are. Now, we take look at who we are as a corporate body, as humanity, God’s creation. Let's look at what that collection of individual pieces looks like to God, as we are considered one body.

Scripture: John 8:48-59

We have a new series, and its on identity! Often, we base our identity on what other people’s opinions are of ourselves, even our past failures give way to molding our identity. Because of that, we tend to lack strong self-identity. But instead, our self-identity can be found within who God is. Pastor Kelly introduces his new series, and show’s who we are, because of who God is.

Series: PS19: A study of Psalm 19

Speaker: Kelly Fellows

Scripture: Psalm 19

God is a star making God, that despite how finite we are, He see’s us as important. Three things we learn from understanding this, it builds confidence, strengthens faith, and fills us with joy. Pastor Kelly will show us the importance of God’s Word, and what we get from the Bible. While talking about the importance of the sun in Psalm 19, King David writes about the purposeful and importance of God’s Word to light, just like the heat of the sun is important for life.

This week Pastor Kelly dives into the peace that Jesus gives. Another quality that we see shone from light, that we identify with during the Christmas holidays. He was known as the “Prince of Peace,” which brought a peace with, of, and because of God to all mind kind. That same peace was passed on to us, as peacemakers we carry that specific identity on what they would look like.
