Kathy Spaulding. ‘Tis the season to shop – at least, that's what the world would tell us. Many people spend countless hours looking for the best deals to give the most wanted gifts. Have you considered what you truly treasure? What lengths are you willing to go to to acquire it? During this series we’ll explore how the world influences us to treasure things, and what Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:19-24: "Lay [our] treasures in heaven for that is where [our] heart will be."

Bill Menser. Single. Married. Straight. Gay. Queer. Trans. Cis. Our cultural moment puts so much emphasis on gender and sexual expression that it makes one wonder: what does it mean to be human? Who am I? Who has the authority to answer that question? The Bible teaches that we are uniquely made in the image of God and that only He has the authority to impart identity. Christians: “You are not your own; you were bought at a price” (1 Cor. 6:20). Jesus suffered and died to offer you eternal meaning. Purpose. God-given, soul-satisfying identity in Christ alone.

This special service is dedicated to praising God, listening to His voice, and responding as the Holy Spirit moves. As a church body we value getting even stronger at corporately hosting God's presence and being challenged by the call to participate in what he's doing. Come with expectation and readiness to share what the Holy Spirit has put in you.

Dennis and Kaku lead a church in Izu, Japan where only 1 in 1,000 people are Christians. New Day has supported their ministry for 30 years and look forward to their annual visits and updates. It's such an honor for us to be a part of what they are doing on the other side of the world.

Pastor Marilee: The word allegiance means to give your loyalty, support, and commitment - to give a cause or country higher value than yourself. By such loyalty, many patriots have fought and died to protect their countrymen. But only one man died to protect us all from the effects of sin and death. Jesus committed himself to the cause of redeeming humanity. The only proper response is to commit our lives to him in return. In this series, we will consider how to pledge allegiance to Jesus as King. We will consider what it looks like to value his kingdom above all else, especially in light of the pressure to align ourselves with political causes and candidates. “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ” (Philippians 3:20).

Bill & Marilee Menser. This Greek word describes how God intends his people to fellowship, participate, partner, and contribute in the Kingdom. We are called to fellowship with one another through our connection to Father, Son, and Spirit. With the communion bread and cup, we participate in the body and blood of Christ. By giving our time, energy, and finances we partner with ministers of the Gospel. And empowered by the Holy Spirit, we all have much to contribute in word and deed. What a rich Kingdom word: Koinonia!

Pastor Bill. Your heart matters! The Bible says that everything you do flows from your heart (Prov. 4:23). It’s the emotional root system of a human. A tree with good roots produces good fruit; a tree with bad roots produces bad fruit. And the mouth speaks what the heart is full of (Matt. 12:33-34). In this series, we will investigate issues of the heart, explore how God can heal us at the deepest level, and experience greater freedom in Jesus!
