Renew

What do you want to accomplish this year? Do you have financial goals, relational goals, personal goals? Have you put any thought into God’s plan for you this year? In the book of Joshua, God led the Israelites into the promised land and then instructed them to begin this new phase of their existence as a nation by pulling away and renewing their covenant with the Lord. We too can proceed into this new year by renewing our dependence in Jesus Christ and our obedience to his will.

Remember

When you look back on the previous year, was it everything you hoped for? Was last year something you want to forget? Here is the more important question: are you looking back at last year and forward to next year through God’s eyes? God told Joshua to prepare the Israelites to enter the promised land by following him by faith and remembering his faithfulness in their past. We too can remember God’s faithfulness to us and commit to follow him.

The Downward Movement

Pastor Jonathan Minter continues our Rhythm of Prayer series as we learn about the 2nd movement in the Lord’s Prayer: The Downward Movement. Learn how to pray, “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

The Mark of Goodness

Pastor Jonathan Minter continued our series on the Nine Marks of True Christian Christian Character by helping us see how the fruit of goodness can grow in our lives. In 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12, Paul prays for his Christian brothers and sisters, that God would make them worthy of His calling, that God would fulfill every resolve for good and work of faith with power, and that God would glorify the name of Christ through them. The fruit of goodness helps challenge us to make sure God’s goodness gets brought to every area of our lives.

The Habit of Personal Prayer

As we continue our sermon series – The 7 Habits of Growing Christians – Pastor Jonathan teaches 3 movements of prayer from the book of Psalms.

God, If I Do This, Will You Do That?

In the second sermon in our “FAIL: Life Strategies That Fail Us” series, Jonathan Minter uncovered the life strategy called, “God, If I Do This, Will You Do That?” We often approach God with a list of things we’ve done in hopes of gaining something in return. But Jesus, in a parable about a Pharisee and a tax collector, taught us that our right-standing with God does not come from within ourselves, but rather from accepting the righteousness of Christ.

Ignite – Fueling the Fire with the Word

Jonathan Minter continued our Ignite sermon series by helping us see how the Word of God fuels the fire of revival. Whether you have been a Christ-follower for a long time, are a new believer, or are yet to fully surrender your life to Christ, the Bible is what is next for you.

The Kingdom is Treasure: The Parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Merchant

Pastor Jonathan continued our Parables sermon series by looking at the Parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Merchant in Matthew 13:44-46. Do you ever feel like God is hidden from you? Or in the busyness of life, are the things of God the first things to get pushed off your list? These little parables from Jesus have great meaning for us as citizens of the Kingdom of God.

Honoring Leaders

Pastor Jonathan continued our HONOR sermon series by focusing on one type of authority in our lives – our leaders. In this sermon, we learn about the relationship between Saul and David and how we can honor our leaders as a picture of our surrender to Christ in our lives.
