Northstar Church

Yielding my control to obey God's law

Giving thanks for all good knowing it is only possible through Jesus

Representing Jesus on earth and in heaven

Doing everything with and in the authority of Jesus

Doing the smallest things wholeheartedly to seek and serve God

God, glorified in everything I do by the strength He provides

Speaking every word today for Jesus

Description: Do you know that you are loved? Do you live as though you are completely loved? Join us Sunday as we take a deep dive into the life-changing effect of God's pure love for us and how it can revolutionize your life.

Gratefulness for the good God is showing me

Empowered to sing beyond what my human effort could accomplish

My heart brought to the place of bursting with praise for God

Growing by the Holy Spirit's power as I visualize God's promises fulfilled

 A singing heart that comes from being saturated in the psalms

A life of song rather than duty

Utilizing human and divine skill and discretion to help people with God's word

We call this the season of joy—yet so many of us carry heaviness that doesn't match the lights and decorations around us. How do we hold on to joy when our circumstances feel drenched in despair? Come discover a joy that doesn't ignore our reality but transforms it.

 Knowing God's word enough to use it to warn people against danger

At home in God's word enough to advise those who are open to it

Letting Jesus's words, inhabit me abundantly enough to affect others

Gratitude in the midst of pursuing love and peace

Following the decision that flourishes the body of Christ over my agenda

 Increased grace and peace in my life

Abiding in Jesus and experiencing and spreading His peace

Description: The Christmas season can often be the most chaotic time in our lives, but does it have to stay that way? Advent invites us to experience the whisper of peace that doesn't depend on circumstances, but on the presence of Christ with us. Together we'll discover how His unexpected, unshakable peace meets us in our waiting and renews every part of our lives.

Letting my tranquility of soul with God spread to others

Achieving genuine unity through genuine love

Loving today by living through Jesus's loving sacrifice

 Seeing God's love enough to abide in it and extend it to others

The power to pray enough to love others with deep earnestness

Loving from a life that is open to God and free from self interest

Taught by God to love other believers

Description: The season of Advent is a time when followers of Jesus reflect on the longing and waiting for the coming Savior. We need hope, and Jesus delivers on true hope. Join us this Sunday!

My life, a fragrant aroma of love to God

Serving others pressed by the urgency of love

Putting on love toward others, as I understand the love with which God loved me

Seeking unity through love

The power to bring about good in the lives of everyone I encounter

Forgiving mostly because the Lord has forgiven me

Showing love without looking for people to earn it

Bearing with, in compassion over, tolerating in the irritation

Responding to the annoyances of others with grace instead of irritation

Patience to consider before reacting to injury

Accepting God's dealings with me as good

Living in the grace that comes with a deep sense of my personal weakness

Faith to elevate the desires, preferences and needs of others above my own

Grace that helps others with tenderness and compassion

Description: What if the cure for our loneliness has been sitting at the table all along? From the altar of covenant to the table of communion, God shows us that we were never meant to do life—or faith—alone. Join us as we rediscover how sharing the Lord's Supper draws us into His presence and reconnects us to the community our hearts were made for.
