Because of God’s love for us, we are motivated to worship him through accepting one another, and participating in building his kingdom. “Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.” (Rom. 15:7).Click here to view / download today's sermon notes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YDkp_h6Keo81RD_MixvxuQWRmaY1-20o/view?usp=drive_link

One of the primary marks of Christian maturity is the ability to love people with whom we disagree. In Romans 14 and 15, Paul calls those who have experienced the grace of God to show it to others by refraining from passing judgement, laying down their freedom for the sake of others and graciously welcoming others.

Pastor Dave explores the relationship a Christian should have to the government and authorities from Romans 13.

We continue our series Onward Together with the sermon “Genuine Love in a Grace-Changed Church” from Romans 12:9-21.

 In the kingdom of God, thoughtful service begins with renewed thinking, which promotes humble self-assessment, which motivates selfless gift deployment. “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (vv. 1-2)

Marvel with us as Pastor Dave explores the grafting in of Gentiles and Jews into the same vine from Romans 11:11-36.

Ruling Elder Dave Strausbaugh preaches the message “God's Grace and a Faithful Remnant” from Romans 11:1-10. "I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! ... God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew … So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.” (vv. 1-2, 5).

Romans 10 indicates three essentials to saving faith: preaching, hearing and sending. Pastor Dave continues our series Onward Together with the message, "Never Beyond Hope" (Romans 10:14-21) "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ" (Romans 10:17).

Romans 10:9 contains one of the most glorious promises anywhere in scripture, "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” What does faith in Christ entail and why do so many people fail to turn to him in faith? In Romans chapter 10, Paul helps us answer these questions, while inviting each of us to repent of our self-sufficiency and to receive a righteousness based on faith.

On this Easter Sunday, we celebrate the risen Lord – defender and friend to all who receive him, who believe in his name, who are welcomed into his family.
