Podcasts about membership matters

In this sermon, Pastor Jim speaks about the importance of not only being a member on paper but also showing up and being a part of the church community.Read along with us in 1 Corinthians 12:12-13

Jesus alone is the Head of God's Church and the King of God's kingdom.  As the risen King, He has a kingdom on earth that He is building that is concentrated in the local church.  Our Lord rules His kingdom on earth through His divine Word and Spirit and through His ordained officers of the kingdom--pastors, elders, and deacons--who are called to prayerfully, graciously, and practically apply the King's Law (the Bible) to the life and ministry of the local church for both hopeful encouragement and loving accountability.  See you Sunday as we worship the King of heaven together!Support the show

How you treat my wife is how you treat me. To injure or love my wife is to injure or to love me. When Saul, the hate-filled persecutor of the early church who later became the Apostle Paul, was confronted by the risen Lord Jesus Christ, He did not say to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting the church?" Rather, Jesus said to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?" This Sunday let's consider Jesus' holy, jealous love for His Bride and what that means practically for us.Support the show

There was once a man who went and bought a very expensive piano for his home.  No one in his family knew how to play piano nor did he have any intention of learning piano.  But there the piano sat, for years, gathering dust.  God mercifully saves us sinners through faith in Christ.  But for what purpose?  Just as a piano purchased at great expense is meant to be played, a sinner purchased by the precious blood of Christ is saved for a divine purpose on this earth.  See you Sunday as we get clarity on God's purpose for our life in this world as God's people.Support the show

It is one thing to be thirsty and know you need water to live.  It is another thing altogether to know where to find that life-giving and life-sustaining water.  It is one thing to know you are a sinner and to find your hope in the sovereign mercy of God alone.  It is another thing altogether to know where to find that saving mercy of God, how to drink from that divine well, and how much it will cost you for that merciful water.  Let's meditate upon that together this coming Lord's Day.Support the show

What is the secret of becoming better lovers at home, in the church, and of our neighbors in the community?  Speaking of the sinful woman who wet Jesus' feet with her tears, wiped them with her hair, kissed them and anointed them with expensive perfumed oil, Jesus said to Simon the Pharisee, "Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven--for she loved much.  But he who is forgiven little, loves little" (Luke 7:47 ESV).  Jesus' answer tells us the secret of how God transforms people into loving much.  And this is why the first church membership vow is so critical if we at Westtown Church are to be a loving people.  See you this Sunday as we ponder it together from God's Word.Support the show

Ep. 345 Why Membership Matters by Pastor Sal Martinez

In this first episode of Membership Matters, we examine certain scriptures that show us how the early church handled church membership. We look at the lists that the early church had to keep up with certain things that mattered to the early church and God. Following the example of the early church who gathered together, and committed themselves to God and their neighbor for the good of The Body of Christ. Grab your Bible and lets study together!

As Christ's Body, we are purposefully joined together by the Holy Spirit according to God's good design. I. The Holy Spirit Unites All Members into the Local Church from Diverse Backgrounds! (12-13) II. God Has Designed a Specific Role for Each Member to Perform within the Local Church! (14-20) III. God Has Ordained That Each Member's Role Is Indispensable for the Health of the Local Church! (21-26) Practical Application Questions Have you trusted Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection for eternal salvation? If not, what is preventing you from the answering the call? Have you obeyed the call of God to be part of a local church? How faithful are you to that call? To which of the Seven Commitments are you most faithful? Which area requires the most improvement? What would be the first practical step to becoming more faithful in that area?

Host Tony Merida chats with rural pastor and planter Will Basham to discuss the advantages of church membership, not only for the church but for its people, too. Tune in to discover how you can take discipleship to the next level by engaging your congregation through the process of church membership.

Love God, Love People, Serve King Jesus, Expand His Kingdom.  You can't do that without being a member of the Church you attend.

In this final message in our Membership Matters series Pastor Aaron focuses on three commands and a warning from Hebrews 10:19-25 - 1. Stir one another up, 2. Do not neglect to meet, 3) Encourage one another, and 4) Be ready for His return. He also talks about the true meaning of fellowship, calling it our God-ordained protection. We hope this series has helped you to have a greater understanding of the true meaning of church membership.
