As we continue in our Vision Series about becoming a Harbor, we look at what this means for our Formation. We believe that Spiritual Formation, or Discipleship, is a huge part of our lives as believers, and not just individually... because the deepest and most profound things shaping our lives are the communities to which we belong.

Location matters. Scripture informs us on the importance of location time and time again. Join us as we approach this historical moment as a church and consider why context matters so much.

Making disciples who transform their world

The Christian life is not defined by a single powerful moment. Instead, Scripture shows us that formation happens through both moments and marathons. In Acts 19, the church in Ephesus experienced a defining moment where God moved powerfully to save its people and bring revival to the city. But years later, Paul wrote Ephesians to guide them through the long obedience of faithful discipleship. Eventually, Jesus Himself addressed this church in Revelation, warning that perseverance without love leads to drift. The invitation of the gospel is not to grit our teeth through the race, but to keep falling in love with Jesus. To do this we must learn to guard our hearts, walk in community, practice faithfulness, and rely on the Holy Spirit to form us peace by piece over the long haul.

There are few theological topics that can be as divisive as the role of the Holy Spirit in the Church, the gifts themselves, when and how they are given, or how they are used. Join us as we explore the framework we have at Believers for understanding and applying these truths.

All of us want peace, transformation, and a life that reflects Jesus. But becoming like God is not something we can accomplish on our own strength. Paul reminds us in Ephesians that transformation is only possible through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not a force but a person who dwells within us. We can grieve Him through our words and relationships, even while remaining secure in our salvation, sealed by His presence. And while those who follow Jesus already have the Spirit within them, we are continually invited to be filled by Him through repentance and surrender. As we walk together in worship, gratitude, mutual submission, and love, the Spirit forms us, peace by piece, into the likeness of Christ.

Spiritual gifts are given for the edification of the Church and helping the individual understand their purpose in the Body of Christ. Join us as we discuss the importance of these gifts as a practice at Believers Church.

最新の国公立と私学の英語をリサーチ・分析 Hi everyone! Last week in Japan, about 490,000 students—including my younger son—took the national university entrance exam known as the Common Test.Today, I'd like to talk about how we can gently support young people before and after such meaningful moments. 皆さん、こんにちは。Sayuriです。 日本全体が、中学・高校・大学と受験シーズンの真っ只中ですね。我が家だけでなく、生徒さん、そしてリスナーの方の中にも、共通テストを終えたばかりというご家庭が多くいらっしゃいます。 共通テストを受験された49万人の皆さん、本当にお疲れさまでした。

Closing our Vision Series, Pastor Tyler examines how we experience Christian community—not as a nice social gathering, but as the very means through which God transforms us and reaches our city. Drawing from Ephesians 4:14-16, we're confronted with a crucial tension: the danger of 'love without truth' that keeps us stuck in shallow relationships, versus 'truth without love' that crushes people with harshness. Both extremes lead to toxic shame and isolation. The sermon uses a vivid personal story of a broken leg to illustrate how genuine love sometimes requires temporary pain for long-term healing—just as resetting a bone hurts but prevents permanent damage. We're called to be a church that embodies both high invitation and high challenge, like Jesus who invited Matthew the tax collector to follow Him while also calling him to leave everything behind. The central insight is profound: we are hurt in community, but the only path to healing is through community. When we remain isolated or make our feelings the center of everything, we rob both ourselves and our city of the transformative witness that comes from a healthy body of Christ. This isn't just about our personal growth—it's about becoming a visible gospel that compels our neighbors, coworkers, and friends to want what we have in Jesus.

All of us are aiming our lives at something. We have a vision of the kinds of people we want to become over the course of our lives. But if we're honest, few of us know how to get there. We either falsely assume we turn into people who look like Jesus by accident, or we rely on big dramatic moments to define us. But change happens through teaching, community, practice, the power of the Holy Spirit over the long haul. In Ephesians 4, Paul reminds the church that everything around us is forming us and shaping us into who we are. The cultural waters we live in shape our desires, habits, and imaginations. Our practice, then, becomes counter-formation. We say “no” to the default patterns of our culture so that we can say “yes” to a better way of life. This type of discipleship looks less like dramatic sprinting and more like walking; slow, ordinary, and repetitive. But over time, our daily practices shape who we become. Slowly we're formed into the likeness of Jesus over the long haul. To walk faithfully and practically, we use a Rule of Life: a simple way of ordering daily, weekly, and lifestyle rhythms around practices that shape us into who we want to be.

Our greatest priority has never changed: Make disciples that make disciples. Join us as we discuss The Great Commission and how it's made known and visible at Believers Church. This is who we are and what we do.

Perhaps the scariest part of our Gather, Grow, Go ministry plan is the Go part. What does it mean to Go? Why should I Go? Can't I just stay where I am? These are all great questions and important ones to answer. If we don't answer them with a Gospel focus, then what is the point of Gathering and Growing? Listen in to the conclusion of our 2026 Vision Series!

It's no secret that America is experiencing a loneliness epidemic. Though most of us are surrounded by people, digitally connected, and relationally busy, few of us have actually experienced the deep and life-giving reality of authentic community. In Ephesians 4, Paul paints a picture of what Christian community can look like. Rather than giving us model, brand, or method, Paul describes community as a body. Just like a body, each person within a community has a part to play in supporting those around them. But also like a body, if one person is unhealthy and unwilling to change, the rest of the community can get infected. Lying, anger, stealing, foul language, and bitterness can cause damage to the communities we find ourselves in. Because of this, true community is a risk. But it's also the way in which we can grow more like Christ, accept his love, and share that love with those around us.

This week in the Peace by Piece series, we explore Ephesians 4:1, focusing on the crucial role of teaching in Christian formation. Many of us are shaped by ideas and images that subtly pull us away from God's truth. True transformation doesn't happen through quick fixes or isolated frameworks, but through a holistic, patient process of engaging with the essentials: Teaching, Community, Practice, Holy Spirit, and Moments & Marathons. This process requires confronting the lies we believe, renewing our minds with Scripture, and allowing God to form us piece by piece over time. As we grow in this grace, we begin to embody the peace of Christ in a chaotic world.

In this teaching, Pastor Mike Jurek continues the Vision Series by focusing on Core Value #4: There Should Be a Spirit-Filled, Life-Giving Church in Every Community. He points out that Core Values 1–3 take root when vibrant, Spirit-filled churches exist—churches that share the gospel, develop believers, and create communities where no one walks alone.Pastor Mike Jurek shows how the Jerusalem church enjoys an incredible season, but God's mission reaches far beyond one place. When they stay comfortable, the gospel still spreads because God moves them outward. We stand in that same moment now. When we pray, serve, give, invite, and embrace the role God has for each of us, the church becomes united and the mission becomes unstoppable.#GoodHopeChurch #PastorMikeJurek #VisionSeries #MissionFocused #SpiritFilledLiving #ReachTheOne #ChurchInEveryCommunitySermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/vision25-6-mjGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

Today, Pastor Daniel Stevens leads us through Core Value #4: There Should Be a Spirit-Filled, Life-Giving Church in Every Community as part of the Vision Series. He explains how the early believers naturally build and multiply churches because they live out the first three core values—everyone hearing the gospel, believers taking responsibility for their growth, and Christians supporting one another.Pastor Daniel describes how the Jerusalem church experiences something incredible, yet God continues calling them outward. When they stay comfortable, circumstances push them back into mission. We face the same choice today: remain settled or carry God's heart for the one who needs Jesus. When we cheer others on, step into our calling, and partner together through prayer, serving, giving, and inviting, the mission moves forward and lives change.#GoodHopeChurch #PastorDanielStevens #VisionSeries #CoreValue4 #LifeGivingChurch #GoAfterTheOne #UnitedOnMissionSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/vision25-6-dsGiving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

In this message, Pastor Mike Stevens continues our What Are We Doing? Vision Series by teaching on Core Value #4: There Should Be a Spirit-Filled, Life-Giving Church in Every Community. He shows how Core Values 1–3—sharing the gospel, growing in faith, and walking together—only come to life when healthy, Spirit-led churches are planted and strengthened everywhere.Pastor Mike highlights the tension the early church feels in Jerusalem. They enjoy an amazing, thriving community, but God is calling them to go after the one. Even persecution pushes the mission forward and reminds them of God's heart to seek and save the lost. That same tension exists for us today. When each believer chooses to pray, serve, give, invite, and take action, we unite around the Great Commission and truly row together.#GoodHopeChurch #VisionSeries #CoreValues #SpiritFilledChurch #LeaveThe99 #OnMission #ReachUpRiseUpReachOutSermon Notes: https://link.goodhope.ag/vision25-6Giving Information: https://goodhope.ag/givingSTAY CONNECTEDYoutube: https://youtube.com/GoodHopeChurchInstagram: http://instagram.com/goodhopemnFacebook: http://fb.com/goodhopemn 

The Vision Series: The Remnants Role in God's Mission w/Ed Stetzer

"If you want to experience the life of Jesus, you have to adopt the lifestyle of Jesus."John Mark concludes the Vision series with a pastoral word on hurry, unpacking how hurry does violence to the soul, erodes our capacity for transformation, and why following Jesus requires us to slow down and adopt his lifestyle, not just his teachings.Key Scripture Passages: Matthew 11v28–30; Luke 10v38–42This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.
