“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends” John 15:13. As Christians, we have been shown incredible, transformational love. A love so great, that it leaves a mark. So, shouldn't this be obvious to others? If we understand the impact of this love in our own lives, what should that look like? In this week's message, Ps Ruth looks at the contagious nature and impact of the love of Christ.
What if you had the secret to all things? The one answer to every question, and the ultimate cheat code for everyday life? Check out this talk from Jeff Moes as he takes a look at the importance of not turning inward but instead reaching beyond oneself to build relationships with those around you and ultimately make a difference in our world. All it takes is one invite. Are you in?
Have you ever struggled with talking about what you believe? It is not always the easiest conversation to lead with. What if someone believes something different or they blow you off or even worse they ask that one hard question you might not know the answer to. If any of those thoughts have crossed your mind then this talk is for you. Jeff Moes hits on the “I.D.E.A” of having a spiritual conversation and four easy steps we all can follow.
A lot of times it's hard to make friends. The dread of meeting new people, finding the time for the intentional coffee chat, figuring out if by chance your personalities are a good match. Let's be honest it's not the easiest, especially when diving into those deep, real, and personal conversations. Check out this talk and see how God has called us to live in quality relationships, to be vulnerable with those around us and make an impact one relationship at a time…. spoiler, the cool thing is, He helps us do it.
We have not been called to segregation but to penetration. Learn how to share the gospel from this podcast. Be blessed!
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1……. READY OR NOT HERE I COME.” We have all played hide and seek right? and there was always that one person who didn't quite play by the rules. They either didn't hide at all or hid for so long that the looking wasn't fun anymore. Have you ever felt like God is that way? That it feels like He is hiding so well that it's not even worth looking for Him anymore? Take a quick listen to this talk and see how you are not the one looking BUT the reality is a loving, forgiving Father has already found you.
Pastor Micah continues our current series "Contagious Christianity" with part 2 'How?' This week Pastor Micah discusses how we can strive to become the most contagious christians possible! Here are 3 simple things keys to help us make a lasting impact on those around us:Know What You Believe (1 Peter 3:15; Matthew 7:24-27)Live What You Believe (James 1:22-25; Psalm 119:1-8; Matthew 5:14-16)Share What You Believe (Romans 10:14-15)One Big Take Away: Christianity that's really contagious takes courage!One Big Question: When it comes to your faith, are you trying to look good, or are you truly looking to impact those around you?
Being a Contagious Christian - 1 Peter 2:18-251 Peter 2:9, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”1 Peter 2:11, “Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul.”What makes the Church relevant is that we are different. When we quit being different, we cease being relevant. The Scripture calls us “foreigners” and “strangers”—we are in the world but not of the world.1 Peter 2:12, “having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.”Contagious Christianity is when people might hate what we say, they still love what they see. It's having the right “position” with the right “disposition.”Contagious Christianity is found in humility and submission in an age of “rights” and rebellion. Peter specifically says we are to be different in our attitude toward civil authority and workplace authority. (See 1 Peter 2:13-14, 18-20)1 Peter 2:18-20, Servants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh. For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.Your vocation is your place of mission; it might also be a place of persecution.Christ suffered, and as Christians, we are called to suffer like Christ. 1 Peter 2:21, “For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps.”1) Be willing to suffer in innocence. 1 Peter 2:22, “Who committed no sin, nor was deceit found in His mouth.”2) Be willing to suffer in silence. 1 Peter 2:23, “who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously.”Isaiah 53:7, He was oppressed and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth.3) Be willing to suffer for others. 1 Peter 2:24-25, “who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.”You can bear the pain of others' sin because Jesus bore the pain of yours.
Pastor Micah started a new series called "Contagious Christianity" this week. This week Pastor Micah talks about what it means to have a contagious faith. But what if Christianity ought to be contagious? What if our love for Jesus Christ became so contagious that it couldn't help but be spread wherever we went? Today's message had 3 main takeaways for each of us to consider:Every Soul Matters to God (Luke 19:10)Create a Daily Awareness (Let our world's collide, no more compartmentalizing our faith from the rest of our lives. 2 Cor. 5:17; Eph. 4:22-24)Am I a Christian that we want being Contagious? (Matt. 23:15)Our relationship with God is all about becoming more like Jesus in all things, at all places, and with all people!Here is an excerpt from Pastor Micah's closing portion of the message. "We have the potential to be a contagious body of believers that spread the love of Jesus everywhere we go, but I believe we all need to get back to the simple truth that every soul matters to God. Then we need to allow our worlds to collide each day and be the kind of Christian that Jesus wants to be contagious. When this happens, lives will be changed, and heaven will rejoice that the ones Jesus came to seek will be saved."

Real truth isn't dependent on how a person feels or your own point of view. In our culture, the truths of Christianity are constantly being questioned. So how can we as Christians be confident in our beliefs? Author Mark Mittelberg talks with Ed Stetzer about how we can be both confident in our faith and contagious in sharing it.
