Six:Eight

Today we linger, looking longer as to what it means to be saved, from what, from who, to what & to whom? To appreciate the light we have to understand darkness. To understand life, we have to understand death. Which will we choose in the end depends on our simple response to Jesus now.

Is Jesus King? If so, king of what? What happens to those who will not humbly bow their knee to his kingship? Is Hell real & necessary? If so, what are our misconceptions of it, and why? Join us as we explore these questions this Palm Sunday leading into Easter.

Those who wait on the Lord will be renewed.

How do we see Jesus living out the foundational principles of the Abrahamic Covenant in His ministry to both Jew & Gentile? What did that mean for His disciples, and for us now? We answer these today by looking at 6 different passages.

Today we look at how Israel was always meant to be a Great Commission Nation, and how that legacy is continued by the Church today. We look at 6 different ways God communicates this to Israel & us... Swearing (making an oath), Repetition, Imagery, Nature, Strategic Growth & finally, Leadership.

We think through two questions today as we continue to look at the complete Story of the Bible. Firstly, what reveals God’s greatest glory? And secondly, what brings about our greatest joy? The answer may surprise you!

Many view the Bible as 66 independent books with various messages & themes throughout. Rather, it’s one book with an introduction, story & conclusion. Today we begin to understand the Story of the Bible. The question being, what’s the central overarching theme throughout the Scriptural Story?

Do our prayers center on personal comfort or the desires & calling of Jesus? Do we see ourselves as on a battlefield with a walkie-talkie connection to our Commander & Chief with unlimited firepower, and strategic planning from above as Paul did? Or is God a golden retriever we’ve simply trained to get us a beer out of the fridge?

Paul takes us on a journey of qualities of true spirituality as seen in 3 significant relationships in life... husbands & wives, parents & children, and slaves & masters (employer & employee). Join us as we explore these qualities together.

Christianity is community, and community is both joy & difficulty. What values govern our community as Christians, what is the central thing which enables us to have health? We explore these questions in todays sermon.
