Sunrise Church

Samson points us to Jesus who is a better judge in His perfect faithfulness and obedience to the Lord.

It can be tempting to run ahead without praising God for His past goodness, but when we consider God’s past provision and goodness, in both the good and the hard, we are better able to approach whatever comes in the future with incomprehensible joy and anchored peace.

The Creator of the sun has spoken and, in speaking, not on behalf of some other deity, but on His own authority, He has revealed Himself to His creation.

Living with the end in view means living now as citizens of the kingdom of God and subjecting our priorities, our concerns and our desires to God’s will.

In a world of identity politics, self-proclaimed identity markers and a social order that feels out of order, Jesus defines you in the truest sense in the context of His church/people.

Our singleness can be a gift in that it allows us to serve God with the fullness of ourselves. However, marriage is a gift in which we model the triune intimacy of God. Therein, we bring glory to God by mirroring Jesus’ relationship with his church and the raising of children to the glory of God. As such, Christians are to remain married as much as lies within them, but are not faulted if an unbelieving spouse chooses to leave them.

Often the source of our grievances is the sin we undertake against one another and how the church handles those grievances says much about our confidence in the gospel.

Is Jesus Christ the master of all of your life and do you serve Him with your whole self (body and mind) in order that God may be glorified in your life?

Sin should be challenged in the church, not for the satisfaction of the preferences of another’s conscience, but for the health and safety of the one at risk of going astray.

The cross shaped leader humbly serves and loves others in service to Jesus Christ.
