Frequently, part of the difficulty we have in understanding and applying the Bible to our lives is that we do not understand the characters involved. One such character is the Church. The word for “church” can simply refer to a generic human assembly, like the Elks Club or a political party's convention. But part of the message of the Bible is that God has established an entirely different kind of assembly in this world called the Church, unlike any other human institution.

What does it mean that God's purpose for us is to "grow?" Join Pastor Brady as he dives into Ephesians 4 in our series, In Him!
In Acts the apostle Paul proclaims and demonstrates how his life has been changed by the gospel and that the risen Christ leads an unstoppable movement. A movement to persuade all people to find their home with him. Paul met the one, true God who could settle his heart and invites us to do the same. Life is found in Jesus.

Terry and Jeetz talk about the 3 weirdest stories of the day! It's called the 533! Today includes: Church gets into the weed business, Cop busted for making yellow snow cones, and the sword swallower who gagged!
Talking about the practical implication of how churches multiply in a decentralized movement that meets in homes. Addition vs multiplication Encouraging people to start small with just their family sometimes to start meeting as the church Seeing the people around you as a gift from God to consider inviting in to your home to meet as the church. When we see the church as more than just a weekly gathering we have more things to invite people into rather than just a church gathering.

Topics of conversation include 1) A description of this circular process: allowing theology to guide our Scriptural interpretation and using Scripture to inform our theology, 2) How rules and principles for interpretation emerge from Scripture itself, 3) A response to the recent emphasis on theological interpretation of Scripture, 4) How a theological concept, such as the Trinity, affects how we understand and interpret Scripture, and 5) Encouragement for pastors to preach expositionally, while also incorporating doctrinal depth.

The Church needs Leaders.
Controlled burns in Forrests or wooded areas are conducted in order to promote healthy growth. Often times growth is hindered by dead leaves, tree limbs, invasive plants, debris & harmful insects. Although this seems counterintuitive, it's really beneficial as the old dead weight is removed, so that plenty of room can be made for the new healthy vegetation. The church is similar, in that it purges sin to promote healthy spiritual growth. Join us this Sunday for our sermon, "How the Church Grows," from Matthew 18:15-20, where we'll see how church discipline benefits healthy growth.
Nothing in life grows without certain conditions producing that growth. In today's sermon, Pastor Chris shares how the church grows.
