Life Beyond Amazing-Session 1 (Introduction)

Are you experiencing the “abundant” part of abundant life (that Jesus spoke of in John 10:10)?  If not, why not?  As a foundational session for our new series, we look at what…or more specifically “who” equips and empowers us to live abundantly as believers.

Three Things John Tells Us About the Christmas Story

In John’s Gospel, he covers the entire scope of the Christmas story in just a few words.  We’ll review three things that John reveals about God, and the “why” of Christmas in this, our last session in our Christmas series for 2017.  (NOTE: Our Life Groups will not meet on Sunday, Dec. 24th or Sunday, Jan. 31st.  We will resume on Sunday, Jan. 7th as we begin a new series.  Merry Christmas!)

What We Can Learn About “Waiting” From the Christmas Story

In the same chapter of Luke (chapter 2) with the Christmas story, there is an account of two individuals that had learned to wait on the Lord; we’ll look at what lessons their lives and experiences can teach us as we look at how to “wait eagerly”.

What We Can Learn From Joseph

We begin our Christmas emphasis with a look at the adoptive father of Joseph, and some of the lessons we can draw from a central figure in the Christmas story…who never speaks a word in Scripture.

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #11

We wrap up our study on Heaven today with some testimonies and also cover the rewards (crowns) of Heaven; what they mean, who receives them, and what we will do with them. 

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #10

Over the previous weeks of this series, various folks have submitted “questions” they would like to have addressed about Heaven.  This segment tackles many of those questions and offers answers based on research and the previous weeks of our study.

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #9

Nothing is more agonizing than the death of a young child, or perhaps even the loss of a child before they exit the womb.  And few questions about Heaven are more agonizing than the question of “Do these little ones go to Heaven?”.    In this session we look at this question in depth, and try to offer biblical answers to this most difficult question.

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #8

God values relationships; we see that from the opening chapters of Genesis into future eternity in Heaven.  So, what about our relationships from here; will there be marriage in Heaven?  What about “families”…will we have “friends” there?  We’ll take a look at these and other questions in this week’s session.

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #7

Will we eat and sleep in Heaven?  What about sports, leisure, the arts and culture; will they play a part?  We delve into what we will DO in Heaven (and what we won’t) in this week’s session.

HEAVEN: You Don’t Want To Miss It!  Session #6

We’ve looked at what eternal Heaven will be like, now in this session, we look at what we will be like there.  For those who are in Christ, what awaits is not only a new body (more glorious that we can imagine), but also a new heart and a new mind!
