Family is a Gift
June 12, 2016 • Pastor Jamey Stuart
Our family might not be perfect, but it's a gift to have an intact family. Same is true at http://church...we are far from perfect, but what if everyone viewed membership as a special gift to be treasured instead of a right to be demanded? God has given us the gift of salvation, eternal life, AND the local church. Let's live in gratitude for the gift of the church!

Leadership Matters
May 29, 2016 • Pastor Jamey Stuart
In a physical family, the parents bring leadership, direction and vision to the family. We are commanded in scripture to honor them and take care of them. In a spiritual family we are actually commanded to pray for our leaders. In this message we will talk about how we need to pray for each other in this family, but don't forget to pray for the leaders, their families, their spiritual/physical/emotional protection.

It's Not About Me, but We
May 22, 2016 • Pastor Jamey Stuart
While it's true that children can be pretty demanding and selfish, it is impossible for a family to function with everyone having their own wants, needs and desires being catered to. Same is true in a spiritual family. We can not let our church be about my preferences and desires. Instead, it has to be about what is best for the body AND what is best for reaching those who are outside the family (in order to bring them into the family)! In our spiritual family we need to serve each other instead of demanding to get our own way!

Everybody Do Something
May 8, 2016 • Pastor Jamey Stuart
This series, starting on Mother's Day, will discuss a healthy church family. There are good comparisons between our physical families and our spiritual families. In this first installment, we discuss family responsibilities. A healthy church family is a church where everyone strives to find their place of responsibility and fulfills it.
