The Church Gathered

The Compass Church

The Church Gathered

July 24, 2016 • Luke Etelamaki • Hebrews 10:23–25

Why do we gather every Sunday? Why do we come together as the Church and worship through song, hear a sermon, and take communion? In today's message, we look at these questions and how the answer affects everything we do on a Sunday.

The Tools of War

August 28, 2016 • Pastor Blair Allen • Ephesians 6:10–20

* NOTE: Unfortunately, this sermon was not recorded due to a technical error. Instead, please view the sermon notes for a summary of the message. Sorry for the inconvenience. ————————————————— The reality is that every Christian is a soldier in a war! The Bible is full of this kind of language: You are in the midst of a battle and you are a soldier. There are battles of life, there is suffering, and there is agony, and it can be so very painful. The apostle Paul wants us to know that we are in a spiritual battle. Paul gives us tools called the armour of God. Each of the pieces of spiritual armour is simply a way of applying the Gospel to a different part of our life. As a new school year begins, let's be reminded of the battle and the armour given to us to fight the battle.

Advance the Gospel

August 21, 2016 • Pastor Blair Allen • Matthew 28:18–20

The Compass Church exists to point people to Jesus by making disciples who Know the Gospel, Live the Gospel, and Advance the Gospel. In today's message, we look at the third of these three pillars: Advance the Gospel. We hear about how the Gospel is a call to go – for the everyday Christ-follower to live on mission in the everyday opportunities that we find ourselves in.

Live the Gospel

August 14, 2016 • Pastor Blair Allen • Romans 1:16

The Compass Church exists to point people to Jesus by making disciples who Know the Gospel, Live the Gospel, and Advance the Gospel. In today's message, we look at the second of these three pillars: Live the Gospel. We hear about how the Christian faith is not meant to be lived in isolation. Through Jesus, we have been adopted into God's family, and we are called to live out the Gospel in community with one another.
