Trust is a funny thing. By that I mean how we sometimes trust but other times not so much. For example, we trust that as we approach on coming traffic on the highway those drivers will follow the rules and stay on their own side of the road, even though they may be disregarding the rules about speed. We may not trust a politician yet we elect them and trust them to run the country we live in. In the same way we call on God in times of trouble yet trusting His word, His promises, His plan for our eternity, not so much. This month, Gene Appel who ministers with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California has been walking us through the book of First Peter gleaning from its pages foundational life concepts that will help us live out Unshakeable Hope. One of the original 12 followers of Christ, Peter penned the letter of first Peter to early Christians to help them live in Hope through Unwavering Trust in the Eternal God and His plan for redemption through Jesus His Son. Okay, did you know that Trust is not just a noun, but also a verb? Here's Gene Appel with a piece of the action To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

Have you ever wondered, what drives this world, where this world is headed? Ever wanted to just shout: Stop the world, I want off. There were some folks, a long time ago, that were probably thinking just that. Persecuted, displaced from their homes, not really belonging.

In today's message, Gene Appel is going to quote a statistic that says; if you make 50,000 per year as a household, you are in the top 1% of all wage earners in the entire world! Given that new perspective, from the Bible's book of James, we are challenged to take a new look at how we manage the resources God has blessed us with, both spiritual and physical.

I'm sure you've heard it somewhere, sometime. Someone talking about faith. You might have even heard it defined something like faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we don't see. So, with the idea of faith being thrown around how do we know what is real and what is just, say, pie in the sky? This month, Gene Appel and Mike Breaux, pastors with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California, will be helping us see what faith looks like when it's lived out authentically with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Okay, here's a question for you; is faith just belief, or is it maybe a verb? In the Bible's book of James there is a statement that says: Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do. So, here's Mike Breaux to unpack how genuine faith is more than just belief, it is transformative To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

Okay, all cards on the table: As much as I wish I could tell you otherwise, living a Christian Life is not, all, a Walk in the Park! It is true that the Christian life is Incredible and that it changes everything. But living in the Kingdom of God does have its trials and testing. What if I were to tell you there is a book in the bible that in a real, raw, sometimes radical and always practical way offers up some of the most unfiltered, straightforward and memorable blueprints for walking with God you might ever encounter? This month, Gene Appel and Mike Breaux, pastors with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California with multiple campuses in Southern California and beyond, will be helping us see what faith looks like when it's lived out authentically with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In our culture we have redefined the word Gentleness to connote something weak or fragile. Originally Gentleness came from a Greek word meaning power under control. This is the meaning the Bible has in mind when it speaks of Gentleness. This week, our speaker from East Side Christian Church in Anaheim, California, Gene Appel is teaching about how God wants to build Peace, Patience, and Power Under Control of the Holy Spirit in us! Throughout this series I Know It When I See It we are discovering how there are some things that are just better seen than defined, described, or explained. When the character traits the Holy Spirit wants to produce in us; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control are visible and tangible in our lives, people will stand back and say, Oh, so THAT'S what it looks like.

Merry Christmas, to you and to those important to you! Our prayer this Christmas season is that the lights, the decorations, the celebrations, all will give you pause and be a reminder that there is a God who loves you and made the first move through His son, Jesus, to give you a way back to Himself. Isn't it amazing how the Christmas season creates such an air of anticipation? Young or old, rich or poor, believer or not, our lives are touched by the holiday season. All of this, initiated by the birth of a child 2000 years ago. Believe what you will about who Jesus was, His birth has initiated a sense of hope that is unparalleled in all of history. In today's message, Gene Appel, lead minister at East Side Christian Church in Anaheim California, unpacks this source of hope.

It's here, the Holiday Season. Christmas, and the New Year. The time of year when we would really like everything to be idealistic, you know, peace, goodwill, and such. But then we're blind-sided by something out of the blue that hits us totally unprepared, in a big way. Reoriented plans can lead to confusion and stress, even good news can cause anxiety! But encouragement can be found in the example of the Christmas story. Did you know the most frequent admonition given to those involved is do not be afraid.

When I was young, my parents didn't always give me what I wanted but, they provided what was best for me. At the time I couldn't see or understand the bigger picture. In the scope of eternity Jesus has the bigger picture and He understands how our eternal welfare is dependent on our relationship with the creator God. The Bible tells us we have broken that relationship through our disobedience, sin, and guilt. It is no wonder that Satan capitalizes upon our guilt to keep us at distance with God, but, Jesus has the authority to forgive our sin, and bring us back to God. This month, Gene Appel, Senior Pastor with the East Side Christian Church in Anaheim, California has been unpacking some ways where Only God can make the difference in our lives and how this week: Only God Can Forgive Our Past.

In this week's message, from our series; Only God, Gene Appel, lead minister with East Side Christian Church in Anaheim, California unpacks how our most significant fears come from the uncertainties that blind-side us throughout our lives. Today, from the Bible's book of Mark the writer shares how after a very busy day of ministry for Jesus and his disciples, they use a small boat to escape the crowds and go to refuel in a more restful place across a local lake. Their crossing starts off very peaceful and relaxing and Jesus even falls asleep. Suddenly an enormous storm overtakes them and in the midst of the storm something incredible, something, life changing takes place.

“People aren't looking for solutions to problems they don't understand. I would have spent a lot more time in my younger years selling the problem, rather than selling the solution that people weren't in the market for.” Since 2008 Gene Appel has been leading Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, CA.
