Embracing Intimacy

February 19, 2023 • Courtney Harkness • John 4:21–24, Hebrews 12:28–29

Worship is always for God.

But it certainly holds benefit for us as well.

The New Covenant pictures this benefit in ways that OT temple worship seems to miss. And unfortunately, many people default to the same empty patterns of religion, thinking they count as true worship.

Still, God wants a quality of relationship with His people that is characterized by something unique, and He gives us a glimpse of that in marriage.

So, whether you are married or single, the nature of marriage is intended to point us all to what God has in mind when we fall in love with Jesus.

Pleasing God

March 26, 2023 • Courtney Harkness • Hebrews 13:15–16, Hebrews 12:28–29

"Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to his name. And don’t forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God." - Hebrews 13:15-16 (NLT) Connect - https://bit.ly/cumberlandconnectform Bulletin - https://cumberlandchurch.org/bulletin Give - https://cumberlandchurch.org/give App - https://cumberlandchurch.org/app Events - https://cumberlandchurch.org/events/ Kids Church Online - https://www.youtube.com/@cumberlandnextgenkidshttp://www.youtube.com/@cumberlandnextgenkids Weekly Email - https://mailchi.mp/cumberlandchurch.org/weeklyemail Wed @ Noon Prayer Gathering - https://bit.ly/noonprayerzoom Serve - https://cumberlandchurch.org/serve/

Living Proof

March 19, 2023 • Abraham Carrillo • Colossians 3:16–17, Hebrews 12:28–29

Would you know the difference between a fake apple and a real one? Would you be fooled? Would others? Do you think God can be fooled by “fake fruit” in our lives? It may be time to take stock of what sort of fruit we are offering “in the name of the Lord.”

Satisfying Hunger

March 12, 2023 • Maceo Lewis • Isaiah 55:1–2, Hebrews 12:28–29

The human soul longs for much more than this world can offer. Jesus presents Himself as the bread of life. Those who come to Him not only find something they want, but also something they never imagined - eternal satisfaction.
