Family Month // Week 2
August 21, 2022 • Alfonso Martinez, Joy Hoge
Welcome into the second week of our Family Month Series titled Family Time. Last week we talked about how God turns our “ordinary life” and makes it extraordinary when we put God at this center. And this week we’ll be talking about the nuts and bolts of how we can do that in our everyday life. In our waking, mealtime , and bedtime. Don't worry! This is a message for everyone: singles, couples without kids, empty-nesters; we are all part of the family of God. Join us!
Family Month // Week 3
August 28, 2022 • Jason Treadwell, Taylor Wilkins • 1 Corinthians 9:24–27, 1 Timothy 1:5–9, Joshua 24:14
This week we are talking about the goal, the method and the outcome of discipline. For some parents, this can be the most perplexing and frustrating facet of parenting. Thankfully we serve a heavily father who sets the perfect example for disciplining children. It's not just about correcting behavior, this is about rearing self disciplined adults. Don't worry! This is a message for everyone: singles, couples without kids, empty-nesters; we are all part of the family of God. Join us!
Family Month // Week 4
September 4, 2022 • Bruce Stefanik, Jason Treadwell • Acts 2:39–47
It’s been family month here at COTH. That has meant a little more noise, wiggles and distractions. It has also meant some adjustments on all of our parts. One reason we do this because we want to give our wonderful Kid Nation volunteers a few Sundays off. But we also do it remind ourselves who we are. We are not a consumer community built around our personal likes and comforts, but rather a servant community doing the Jesus life together. Jesus modeled this for us by choosing to be born of two parents into a very regular Jewish family. There he lived out his everyday life, learning, working, and simply being a part of his community. Ultimately his mission turned out to be the giving of his life to redeem every family on earth from their sin and their brokenness. Then as the book of Acts describes, he invites us all to be a part of the wonderful, messy, oftentimes challenging, but life giving family he calls his Church.
