The Execution of the Great Commission

May 14, 2023 • Pastor Doug Forman • Matthew 28:18–20, Acts 1:8, 2 Timothy 2:2, Revelation 7:9–10

Give

Mission. Everyone needs one. In the absence of mission people live haphazardly and without a sense of purpose and that’s no way to live this one life.

The mission of the church is very clear. We are called to glorify God by making more and better disciples of Christ.

The question becomes, what is your mission? Is it worthy of this one life? Does it glorify God? Does it demonstrate a heart of gratitude, obedience, and delight in Him?

If you’re lacking a sense of mission, there’s nothing better than the Great Mission of the Church.

More from Benchmark Series - Core Values

The Authenticity of Worship

May 28, 2023 • Pastor Andy Shanks • Ephesians 5:15–21

Core Values: Seven statements that we as a body of believers at Breesport hold near and dear. Seven statements which dictate what we do and how we do it. As we wrap us this series, we will discuss the authenticity of worship. Worship is a word that is thrown around a lot. What exactly is it and what makes it authentic? We will use Ephesians 5:15-21 as a launching pad to explore how we as Christ followers can edify one another, and whole heartedly experience God focused worship while having an eye on evangelism.

The Edification of Community

May 21, 2023 • Pastor Doug Forman • 1 Corinthians 12:12–27

We stand in front of a mirror every day and often fail to appreciate the intricate and delicate machine that is staring back at us. The human body is a marvel of divine engineering and when every part is doing its part, we define that as “healthy.” When it’s not, we define that as “sick.” The Church of Jesus Christ is similar and that’s why it’s often likened in the Bible to a body. This week we will consider the importance of building up the Body of Christ such that every part accepts and does its part in a healthy and Biblical way for the good of the whole and the glory of God.

The Necessity of Prayer

May 7, 2023 • Pastor Doug Forman • James 5:16–18

Prayer is one of those areas in the average Christian life where we almost immediately feel like we could be doing better. That’s certainly understandable given that the Biblical standard for prayer is “without ceasing.” With that being said, prayer is such a wonderful gift to the Church and to the Saints. It’s the means by which we relationally connect to our God, pour out our praise and petitions, and find the grace and strength we need to rise above our circumstances. Therefore, we should always strive to more fully embrace the necessity of prayer.
