I'll focus on the phrase "foreigners and exiles" or, "strangers and aliens" to begin. We have all probably been places that left us all feeling what it feels like to be a stranger in a strange land. In the context in which Peter is writing to these early Jesus people, they felt like strangers in a strange land because of their connection with Jesus - they would have avoided cultic rituals and would have been seen as different - people would have been suspicious of them. We definitely know what that's like. It used to be easy to give examples of this - us living in this culture. Now, it's extra difficult and weird - we now feel like strangers among our own Jesus people. This is where that video comes in. The images of violence being punctuated by the Lord's Prayer really just makes our skin crawl, if we think about the context of that prayer and who Jesus asks us to be. So how do we make our way in this environment? Peter's answer - living stones. We need each other and together we remain connected to the cornerstone, Jesus. We need each other now more than ever in these "unprecedented times." We NEED each other. Speaker: Aaron Vis Scripture: 1 Peter 2:1-12 http://bible.com/events/49499623

"We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure..." Hebrews 6:19 (NIV)A visual learner? Watch the stream back now! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're reminded of our calling to be 'salt and light' in the world. Drawing from Matthew 5:13-16, we explore how Christians are meant to preserve goodness and illuminate truth in our communities. Just as salt preserves and enhances, we're called to fight moral corruption and share the wisdom of Christ. As light, we're meant to reveal what is good and point others to Jesus. This isn't about shining for our own glory, but about serving for souls, not for show. We're challenged to examine our motives - are we living to be seen by others, or to glorify God? The message encourages us to share our faith journey through both action and words, reminding us that even small acts of integrity can open doors to share the gospel. As we go forth, let's consider: How can we be salt and light in our daily lives, preserving what is good and illuminating the path to Christ for others?

In the concluding message of the Living Stones series, Pastor Chris dives into what it means to be a Kingdom Adventurer. He reminds us that "success" in the Kingdom is us continuously becoming more like Jesus, demonstrating the Kingdom of God here on earth - the greatest adventure we will ever be a part of.

As part of our Living Stones series, Pastor Olu explores the story of the Good Samaritan and what it teaches us about becoming Compassionate Neighbors. Genuine spiritual growth isn't about busyness or religious checklists—it's about having a tender heart, taking action when others are in need, and making space in our lives for those on the margins. Ultimately, the story points us to Jesus, the Good Shepherd, who heals, carries, and restores us.

We Pursue Simplexcellence

This week we continued looking at the three images of the church found in scripture, with a focus on the church as a house of living stones as described in 1 Peter 2.

Dear Living Stones Family, both Past and Present, We want to share with you that Living Stones Church held its final service on September 7th. This was a bittersweet moment, and while we grieve the closing of this chapter, we are also deeply grateful for the many ways God has been at work in and through this community. As we look ahead, we hold onto God's promise: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8). Thank you to everyone who found and listened to the podcast, whether it was the sermons in Living Stones church, or the conversations in the HereWeGrow Podcast, we love and appreciate everyone. With love and gratitude, Living Stones Church

Did you know the concept of “Home” and “Making” has existed before the world began? In this message, Pastor Holly dives deep into our second Living Stone, Courageous Homemaker, challenging us to broaden our view of “homemaker”, a mostly American term and largely defined by culture. She defines who is a Kingdom Homemaker (everyone), why we all need courage to step into our roles as homemakers, and what does a Courageous Homemaker do? You will be challenged and encouraged to press into God, The First and Best Homemaker and ask, “What does this look like for me for where I am now?”

In this powerful message, we delve into the heart of discipleship and its vital role in our Christian walk. The key scripture, 2 Timothy 2, paints a vivid picture of spiritual multiplication. Just as Paul mentored Timothy, we're called to pour into others and help them grow in faith. This isn't just about gaining knowledge; it's about transformation through intentional relationships. The analogy of living stones from 1 Peter 2 reminds us that we're not meant to stand alone, but to be built together into God's spiritual house. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider: Who are we pouring into? Who's pouring into us? Our faith isn't meant to be static, but dynamic and ever-growing. In a world that desperately needs hope, we're reminded that our mission is critical. We're called not just to gather, but to be launched into the world, sharing the love and truth of Christ with those around us.

In this message Pastor Chris begins our new series exploring the calling on our House to raise and release disciples, or ‘Living Stones'. Each week we'll be looking at one of the unique areas God is raising up ‘Living Stones' in our House and what it means to live into that.  So what is a relentless worshipper? Unpacking Luke 7, the story of Jesus being anointed by the sinful woman gives us a vision of what relentless worship can look like in our lives.

In this powerful exploration of John 15, we're reminded of the vital importance of abiding in Christ. Jesus uses the metaphor of a vine and branches to illustrate our relationship with Him - He is the source of our strength, and we are called to remain connected to Him. This connection isn't just about personal growth; it's the foundation for our ability to love others deeply. As we abide in Christ, His joy and love overflow in our lives, enabling us to fulfill His command to love one another. This message challenges us to examine our own connection with Jesus and how it impacts our relationships with others. Are we truly abiding in Him, allowing His love to flow through us to those around us? It's a call to deepen our spiritual roots and bear fruit that lasts for eternity.
