Renewal Church Denver

Jesus calls his disciples with two words, "follow me." In a world filled with following accounts and channels on social media, we run the risk of misunderstanding what true following looks like. In this message, we explore the disciples' call and what we can learn from them.

The people we spend time with influence us greatly. How does God want us to hold in tension our call to grow alongside Christians and the need to reach out to those outside the household of faith? We explore in this message.

Every day you are being formed into something, it's just a matter of by what and into what? God loves you so much that he made you and prepared good for you to do. He loves you so much that even when you sinned, he sent his Son to forgive you and restore you into the new creation he made you to be. Therefore, Paul urges us to offer our bodies as a living sacrifice to do the good that God prepared, and he encourages us to do this by being conformed into the right thing.

The word "community" gets used in lots of different ways, but how does God envision the Christian community? We explore the story of Pentecost to see how the early Christian Church invested in one another.

More than ever, we are able to live individualistically. But just because we can do so much on our own, are we supposed to? In this message, we explore how God designed humans to relate to one another, what went wrong, and what Christ did to make it right.

We close out this series by looking at the prophet Isaiah's visions of the Mountain of the Lord, a final picture of restoration at the end of time. We explore how this picture of restoration gives us hope and endurance for our present journey.

In a pinnacle moment of his ministry, Jesus takes three of his disciples onto a mountain where he's transfigured and shines before them. There he's met by Elijah and Moses, each who had their own mountain-top experiences, and they embody Jesus's fulfillment of the Law and Prophets. What does this mean for us and our understanding of Jesus? We explore in this message.

Mountains have long been associated with encountering God, so many of the Canaanite religions would build altars and places of worship on "high places." God strictly commanded that His people destroy the high places so they wouldn't worship like their idolatrous neighbors. However, we see throughout Israel's history that they would turn to the Lord but were slow to get rid of the high places. In our own lives, it is easy to turn to the Lord but hang onto idols and other objects of worship. What does it look like to destroy these high places and fully worship the Lord?

At Mount Sinai, God made a covenant with his people that would be demonstrated through obedience to his commands and rules. On Mount Zion, Christ instituted a new covenant that was built on his righteousness and received in faith. This transition moved us from slaves to sons/daughters, from performance to promise, and from fear to a festival.

God gave instructions heading into the promised land to place a blessing and a curse on two adjacent mountains. These mountains represented the blessing that comes from obedience to God and the curse that comes from disobedience to him. The problem is that the people, like us, chose disobedience. But Christ came and obeyed perfectly earning life and blessing, which he gave us on the cross.

When mountains first show up in the Bible, it's during the flood. Mountains give us a picture of strength and refuge to run to when the chaos and dangers of life come. We all have something(s) that we take refuge in, but in the flood, we see that those other refuges cannot stand. But Calvary, where Jesus died, is a sure refuge for us at all times.

We close out this series by looking at the spiritual nourishment that is communion, or the Lord's Supper. How does Jesus give us his own flesh and blood in communion? And how does that bless us? And what are we doing when we commune together?

Paul fleshes out for us how baptism DOES something to us, it gives salvation, forgiveness, and life. What are all the implications and what does life look like when we understand baptism as God's action first and foremost?

The first thing that ever happened in this universe was that God spoke, and His Word created all things. That same Word has been recorded for us and continues to be spoken today. How does God speak to us and through us? And how does that shape how we hear His Word and speak His Word?
