None of us were created to sail through life alone and this week, as we look at Genesis 2, we will see that before Adam ever knew he needed companionship, God knew. That's where friendship begins; with God's provision. Christ created us for relationships that give us purpose. We all need people who will get in the boat with us, weather the storms with us, and point us back to the Savior as we seek to be that in return. This Sunday, we are excited to be kicking off our new series called The Friend Ship. It's about far more than having friends, it's about discovering God's purpose together. We will see you Sunday!

Genesis 24 is one of the most richly layered stories in all of Scripture, and once we see the deeper picture it paints, it becomes impossible to read it the same way again. On the surface, it is the story of a faithful servant sent on a long journey to find a bride for his master's son. But beneath that, it is nothing less than a portrait of redemption itself. The unnamed servant mirrors the role of the Holy Spirit, who never draws attention to himself but points always toward the Son. The father who sends him reflects God the Father. And Isaac, waiting at home, represents Christ. Every detail, from the servant's humble prayer at the well to the extravagant gifts he carries, speaks to the lengths God goes to in pursuit of his bride. That bride, it turns out, is us. We are Rebekah in this story. And understanding that changes everything about how we see our worth, our calling, and the love God has lavished on us.## Sermon Notes: Genesis 24 — “I Will Go”### Main Text: Genesis 24  Genesis 24 tells the story of Abraham sending his servant to find a bride for Isaac. Pastor Rick presented this as a picture of God's redemptive plan.### 1. The Redemptive Picture in Genesis 22–24- **Genesis 22:** Abraham offers Isaac on Mount Moriah, pointing to the Father giving His Son, Jesus, at Calvary.- **Genesis 23:** Sarah dies, picturing Israel as the bride connected to the Father.- **Genesis 24:** The unnamed servant is sent to find a bride for the son, picturing the Holy Spirit calling the Church, the Bride of Christ.### 2. Abraham's Servant: Faithful and Humble- The servant is likely Eliezer, Abraham's longtime servant.- Though Isaac's birth cost him the inheritance, he remained faithful.- He does not seek attention for himself; he seeks success for his master.- This reflects the Holy Spirit, who testifies of Christ and glorifies the Son.### 3. Isaac Must Not Go Back- Abraham commands the servant not to take Isaac back to Abraham's former land.- God had promised the land to Abraham's offspring.- The bride must choose to come, but the son will not return to the old land.- This mirrors the call of Christ: “Forsake all and follow Me.”### 4. Rebekah's Choice- The servant prays for a clear sign: a woman who offers him water and waters his camels.- Before he finishes praying, Rebekah appears.- She is generous, diligent, and willing to serve.- Watering ten camels could have required 200–300 gallons of water.- The servant recognizes God's guidance and worships.### 5. “Do Not Delay Me”- Rebekah's family wants her to stay ten more days.- The servant insists that if God has prospered the way, they should not delay.- Rebekah is asked directly, and she responds: **“I will go.”**- This is the heart of the sermon: when God calls, our answer should be immediate obedience.### 6. We Are Rebekah- Rebekah represents the Bride of Christ.- The Holy Spirit calls us and gives us gifts as a preview of what is to come.- God sees His people as beautiful, loved, and chosen.- The story points forward to the marriage supper of the Lamb.## Practical Applications- Do not delay obedience when the Holy Spirit calls.- Stop looking back after putting your hand to the plow.- Serve faithfully even when there is no personal reward.- Trust God's guidance, even when the journey is long.- Remember: in Christ, God sees you as His beloved bride, not as your failures.## Discussion Questions1. What stood out to you most from the picture of Abraham, Isaac, the servant, and Rebekah?2. Why is delayed obedience so tempting?3. What does Rebekah's “I will go” teach us about faith?4. In what area might God be asking you to stop delaying?5. How does seeing yourself as the Bride of Christ change the way you view God's love?

Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from August 9, 2026. Pastor Rick begins the Sermon on the Mount by looking at the first four Beatitudes and what they reveal about a life lived under the rule of Jesus. Being poor in spirit means recognizing our need for God, mourning means grieving over sin, meekness means surrendering our will to the Lord, and hungering and thirsting for righteousness means desiring what God desires. Together, these Beatitudes show a progression of drawing closer to Jesus as we recognize our need, confess our sin, surrender our plans, and allow Him to change our hearts. The message encourages us to keep looking to Jesus and let our hearts and lives increasingly line up with Him. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, August 9, 2026

Discover how He meets us in our struggles and leads us forward with faith, courage, and purpose.To Learn more about Grace Church go to https://gracechurchco.com/In this message titled "Don't Waste the Waiting," Pastor Rick Long explores the life of Joseph from the Old Testament to teach listeners how to find purpose during seasons of delay, struggle, and uncertainty. He emphasizes that for Christians, periods of waiting are not evidence of abandonment, but rather proof of divine preparation (9:02-9:21).Key Themes from Joseph's Life:• God Gives a Promise (13:06 - 24:00): Just as Joseph had dreams of leadership before his trials began, God often reveals a destination before showing the process. The pastor encourages viewers to hold onto God's promises even when the path is difficult.• God Develops Character in the Pit (24:11 - 31:12): The "pit" represents seasons of betrayal, rejection, and confusion. Pastor Rick clarifies that these moments are discipline and preparation, not punishment, meant to remove pride and shape one's character for future influence.• Endurance in Obscurity (31:14 - 44:00): Whether serving in Potiphar's house or prison, Joseph succeeded because the Lord was with him. The message highlights that faithfulness in small, mundane tasks is the prerequisite for greater responsibility.• Full Dependence on God (44:00 - 51:08): Through imprisonment and being forgotten, Joseph learned to rely entirely on God rather than his own circumstances or plans.• The Ultimate Purpose (51:10 - 57:00): Eventually, Joseph is elevated to the right hand of Pharaoh to save his family and the nation. The pastor connects this to the life of Jesus, who also endured suffering to offer salvation to many.Core Takeaway:God never wastes a hurt or a season of waiting. If you are currently in a "pit," a season of waiting, or a difficult job, the message encourages you to change your perspective: God is preparing you for something greater than you can currently imagine.At the end of the service, the pastor invites those who have not accepted Jesus to make that decision (58:55-1:01:13) and shares updates regarding the church's Forge Fury Classic golf tournament (1:01:46-1:03:0:00 Welcome and Announcements0:40 Introduction to the Series: Stories of Struggle3:14 Defining "Don't Waste the Waiting"10:57 The Life of Joseph: A Journey Through Seasons13:04 1.

Packinghouse's Sunday evening worship service from August 2, 2026. Pastor Rick teaches through the beginning of Jesus' ministry in Galilee, where Jesus fulfills prophecy, calls people to repentance, and invites ordinary fishermen to leave their nets and follow Him. Using the picture of following a guide through an unfamiliar place, Rick emphasizes staying close to Jesus, trusting His direction through unexpected changes, and remembering that God is still working even when life seems interrupted or delayed. As Peter, Andrew, James, and John respond to Jesus' call, the message challenges believers to keep Christ above their routines, comforts, and distractions and to learn to recognize His leading through a growing relationship with Him. - Rick Cornejo - Sunday, August 2, 2026

Life has a way of putting us in situations that feel impossible. Like Mary and Martha, we all face sickness, disappointment, delays, and unanswered questions. But in John 11, we are reminded that Jesus is never late - He is always working, even when we can't see it. Jesus didn't ignore their pain; He wept with them before He performed the miracle. That shows us He cares deeply about what we're going through. And when He called Lazarus out of the grave, proved He has power over death itself. So whatever you're facing today, remember that Jesus is still the Resurrection and the Life. He brings hope into hopeless situations and can do what seems impossible. Trust Him, even when you don't yet understand His timing. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series "The Seven I Ams."

After 28 weeks walking through Romans together, Pastor Rick brought the series home at CrossPoint Church with a sweeping look back before landing on Paul's final words to the believers in Rome. Paul writes not as a distant theologian but as a man overwhelmed by privilege — the privilege of carrying the Good News to people who need it. His message is as simple as it is staggering: every one of us stands separated from God, cut off by our own sin. But Christ did not leave us there. He died to pay a debt we could never repay, and in doing so, He gave us power over sin itself — power to walk in a relationship with God that is rich, real, and unbroken, both now and forever. It's a message that leaves only one response: gratitude. Grace like this, mercy like this, isn't something we earn. It's something we simply receive — and thank God for.

Pastor Rick Wilcox introduced the Holy Spirit as our Teacher, and the better Teacher at that. He opened with Dr. Al Collins, the professor who wrote Hugh B. Brown's prayer on the blackboard, "from the arrogance that thinks it has all truth, O God of truth, deliver us," and who corrected a fiery eighteen-year-old by planting a seed and walking away rather than arguing. Pastor Rick then turned to the Gospel of John. Matthew, Mark, and Luke tell us what Jesus did; John tells us who He is, written by an old man setting down what had not yet been said. That brought us to Thursday night in the upper room, where Jesus, hours from the cross, spent His last teaching hours on the Holy Spirit. Working through John 14 through 16, Pastor Rick showed why this Teacher surpasses the finest human one. He abides with us and in us. He does not hand us new information; He turns on the light over the Word already written. And He guides continuously, disclosing what is to come, which is far more often our next step than a distant horizon.

In this sermon, Pastor Rick continues the Facing Our Level series by teaching that our spiritual level is ultimately revealed by how we serve others. Using Jesus' teaching in Matthew 25, he explains that genuine faith is demonstrated through compassion, generosity, and a willingness to minister to those in need, while challenging believers to remove the distractions that keep them from focusing on God's priorities.

Dios utiliza la escasez para poner a prueba nuestra generosidad y hacer crecer nuestra fe. Es fácil ser generoso cuando se tiene mucho. Pero las personas fieles son generosas incluso cuando no tienen mucho. Dios multiplicará lo poco que tengas cuando se lo confíes. En esta transmisión, el Pastor Rick enseña que cuando haces todo lo que Dios te dice que hagas, Él hace lo que tú no puedes, y te lo devolverá en abundancia.
