As Christmas approaches, Pastor Ulysses begins to take us through the birth of Christ as described in Luke. He helps to clarify the true meaning of the season of Christmas, and the impact on how we view our lives. We don’t need to have fame or power or success in the eyes of the world, because we can rest on the fact that we are children of God, and he has a purpose for each of us.

This week, Pastor Jonathan takes us through the very last section of the book of John, thus concluding the series! In this final passage, Jesus has a conversation with Peter, through which we learn about Jesus Christ as the great Redeemer. Not just from death to life, but in every aspect of our lives as well—nothing is wasted when we bring it to Jesus for him to redeem.

In the final chapter of John, the disciples return to their ordinary lives, settling back into routine despite the miraculous events they witnessed just months earlier. Yet, in a powerful moment, Jesus appears to remind them of his unwavering presence and provision. How often do we as believers lose sight of God in the busyness of our daily routines? In this sermon, Pastor Ulysses challenges us to recognize that even in the mundane, God is actively present, calling us to align our lives with His mission.

During Pastor Pete's concluding sermon he emphasizes the importance of us slowing down our busy lives and intentionally focusing on our relationship with Jesus. God can do wonders, bring healing and joy amidst darkness. But if we do not spend time with Him, He cannot build us up. 

At our third session at Renewal's Annual Retreat, Pastor Pete talks about how all of us have much mourning and suffering through the ordeals we have endured in this broken world. But there is great light and renewal ahead of us with Christ.

In our second session at retreat Pastor Pete talks about to how we need to identify things that may seem to fill us, but are actually harming us. At the same time, we need to do things that reaffirm our identify in Christ.

Welcome to Renewal’s Annual Retreat. In this first session titled "Racing for Death" Pastor Pete talks about how it is critical we stop and meet with God routinely amidst all the limitless distractions and obligations we face in daily life. We need to remember what our true priorities are.

This week we take a break from the book of John to discuss Christianity and politics. Should we attempt to leave our Christian morals at home when we go to vote? How should we evaluate candidates and proposals?  Pastor Ulysses shares the biblical perspective on those questions and many more.
