This Sunday, pastor Tyler shared about our concept of the church and how we need to evaluate our assumptions of the what the church is in light of Jesus and His Word. In this message, we are taught what the church is and encouraged to live that out not just on Sunday but in the workplace from Monday-Saturday.

This Sunday, we recognized and celebrated Pentecost and the coming of the Holy Spirit on the early church to fill them with power to be witnesses. We learned that a spirit of unity prepared the church for the empowering of the Holy Spirit and propelled the church forward as they continued to have unity in obedience, prayer, people and the prophetic.

This was the hardest message I've ever had to give. I spoke from the heart. It's not a perfectly polished message...in fact, it's a bit messy, but it's real. As we step out in obedience, trust, and faith, we know that God will continue to care for His church. 

To Summit: You are seen, known, and deeply loved. We will move forward in faith because we are family, and God has this all in His hands.

Sunday, May 5th, we heard Pastor Ed Crowell share how we need to build our lives on the firm foundation of God's Word. He encouraged us to know the Word of God and hear his voice and to discern the promptings of the Holy Spirit. 

This week pastor Tyler talks about the life of Saul and the space between his calling and his ministry.  Saul's life story gives us hope that even when the good things in our lives seem stalled or delayed, God is still faithfully working all things together.

In this two-in-one sermon, Pastor Lizzy taught from Acts 8, following the life and ministry of Philip. We learned that even though God leads us into different seasons and situations, His call to be His witness remains. *We had a medical emergency in the middle of the first week's message, but were able to pick up from where we left off the following week. God cared for the person needing care, and the church moved into a time of intercessory prayer and worship.*

This morning, Pastor Lizzy shared an encouraging message about the power of God to remove stones in our lives, just as He did when the stone was rolled away from the entrance of the tomb. 

In this message, Evan took us through Acts 5, and the shocking response the apostles had to the persecution they faced in the midst of spiritual revival. We learned and were encouraged by the apostles' stance that, "Radical obedience to Jesus Christ is basic Christianity." 

This morning, Pastor Tyler shared his testimony regarding the Holy Spirit, and how he journeyed from a feelings of weird to wonder, wonder to wanting, and wanting to walking with the Holy Spirit. This is a powerful message on the personhood of the Holy Spirit, and the power that comes from His infilling. 

In this message, Pastor Lizzy shares about the Person of the Holy Spirit; who He is, and what He does. In looking through Acts 2, and John 14-16, we learn that the Holy Spirit was given for power to witness about Jesus.
