Castine's Goals & Values Series

God's Talents

June 30, 2024 • Greg Hyre • 1 Corinthians 12:1–11

The Holy Spirit has empowered each of us with a spiritual gift, and each person using their gift matters in advancing the work of God for the common good.

Authentic Community

July 14, 2024 • Pastor Greg • Hebrews 10:25

Christians have a responsibility to seek out friends—relationships where we can openly share our hearts, encourage each other in faith, and hold one another accountable—for God didn’t intend for a person to be alone but to have authentic community.

Recognizing God’s Presence

June 23, 2024 • John 10:1–18

Just like a shepherd calls to his sheep, who know his voice and follow him, so the Lord speaks to us, wanting us to recognize His voice and follow Him.

Serving

July 7, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Mark 10:35–45

Our culture constantly points us to being selfish or promoting ourselves. The right path to having purpose, meaning, and fulfillment in our lives is by giving ourselves and serving in and outside the church so as to follow and model Christ.

The Godly Conform to the Bible

May 26, 2024 • Pastor Greg • Hebrews 4:12

Godly people who conform to the Bible means they are being shaped by God’s standards through His active, living Word. The Bible teaches us how to live right in Him and reveal Him to others.

To Reach The World

May 5, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Matthew 5:13–16

To follow Jesus and be His salt of the earth, we must walk in the ways of God and give glory to His good works by bringing His light into the darkness of the world.

Growing Godly Marriages

April 28, 2024 • Greg Hyre • Genesis 2:18–24, Ephesians 5:31–32

Godly marriages lived out for the Lord model Jesus’ spiritual connection to the church (His people) and make Jesus known to the next generation.

Growing Godly Women

April 21, 2024 • Greg Hyre • 1 Timothy 2:8–10

Godly Christian women adorn themselves in respectable attire with modesty and self-control so as to model the image of Christ. They allow Jesus to shine through them in the way they profess themselves in their femininity and good works!

NextGen

April 14, 2024 • Christian Stewart • Ephesians 5:10–17, Judges 2:10

We have a responsibility to build up the next generation with the armor of God to fight off the devil. This requires arming them with the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes of readiness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit—the Word of God.

Growing Godly Men

April 7, 2024 • 1 Timothy 6:11–14

Through the fresh Word of God and the church’s support, a godly man pursues righteousness, godliness, worship, faith, and love while having steadfastness in a context of gentleness.
