The Whole Story

Christmas Eve 6PM

December 24, 2022 • Jim Gallagher • Luke 2, Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:27, Genesis 3:15, 1 Peter 1:20

When you watch a movie preview, you don't see the whole story line of the movie. You need to see the whole picture to really understand the story. Jesus' story is one of Redemption, and His story continues. The NT writers tell us to do 4 things because of the Christmas story: 1) Believe in Him, 2) Receive Him, 3) Follow Him, and 4) Serve Him!

November 10, 2024 • Peter Denham • John 15:1–11

Pete's "Swan Song" Pulpit Notes: -"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him." -John Piper -Abiding leads to abounding fruitfulness. Fruitfulness doesn’t come FROM activity for God. Rather, activity for God, and the fruit it bears, is a natural RESULT of my connection to God, or abiding in HIM. -“The Father’s Hands are Hands of Grace and Growth” - “Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.” -“If God doesn’t discipline you as he does all of his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all.” HEBREWS 12:8 -Dis-connection leads to Decay, Dysfunction, and (Destruction) -HOW DO WE ABIDE? A . GROW IN HIS LOVE (His love motivates and moves us) B . GROW IN HIS WORDS (We Receive, We meditate, We live)
