Wonder Church

At Wonder Church, we believe in the sanctity of life.  But, why?  What does the Bible say about abortion, when life begins, and the value of human life?  In this message, we study the Bible and uncover a systematic theology of life - God sees human life as intrinsically valuable.

When we first started Wonder Church, we received many calls asking the question, "what does the Bible say about homosexuality?"  Since then, we have continued to hear this question and others related to it. This message is a biblical response to the question of homosexuality along with some associated questions.  We will see God's design for sex and his response to our sexual brokenness.

Interpreting the Bible is a difficult task.  However, it is the work of all who seek to know God.  However, beneath the doctrines that come from biblical interpretation, this is a question: What is the Bible?  In this message, we will seek to answer this question along with others so that we can confidently move forward in task of biblical interpretation. 

In this special online only message, the eldership team of Wonder Church reflects on what God has done in Wonder in 2022.  We also turn our attention to His voice to seek guidance for the new year.

Did you know that there is a Grinch in the Bible?  His name was Herod.  And, on the first Christmas morning, He tried to steal baby Jesus!  The enemy has always been trying to steal Jesus from the world.  In this episode, Pastor CJ brings a Christmas morning message that encourages us to identify how the enemy has tried to steal Jesus from us and how we can safe-guard what God is doing in our lives.

Do you ever find that you feel rushed?  In this message, we study the meaning of the promise from the angels that appeared to the shephared's on the night of Jesus birth.  We will discover that the peace that Jesus brings, comes to us and flows through us into the world around us.

Have you ever been disappointed by God?  Surprisingly, the story of the birth of Jesus is filled with disruption and disappointment.  The only ones who felt the magic of the nativity scene were those who were not a part of it.  Perhaps the one who was most disappointed of all was Joseph.  In this message we will discover hope in the message that an angel gave Joseph in the midst of his disappointment - maybe this disappointment is actually God's divine appointment. 

As we conclude the Idol Factory Series, we turn to a story in Daniel 3.  We discover that idolatry effects everyone.  We all have a god that we worship.  Therefore, the question we must ask is this - is our god enough to save us?  Through our study in Daniel 3, we will discover that there is no other god who can rescue like Jesus.

In this message, we do a case study of idol forging in the story of Israel's idolatry found in Exodus 32.  We will discover the context in which idols are made, and the solution that all of humanity is looking for.

What do you love?  God wants us to love his creation and made us to love each other, but we get into trouble when that love becomes disproportionate.  In this message, we tackle the subject of idolatry.  We will find that idolatry is pervasive in the human heart and the only antidote is the love we were made for.
