Gospel Mission

January 29, 2023 • Carl Young • Matthew 28:18–20

We desire to be a people who make disciples that declare and display the good news of Jesus in everyday life for the glory of God and our joy. We gladly obey the command to make disciples, not to earn the approval of God, but out of the approval of God. We know that the mission will be successful because Jesus has promised us 2 things in Matthew 28: - He has all authority in heaven and on earth - He is always with us, even to the end of the age.

Gospel Presence

January 22, 2023 • Carl Young • 2 Corinthians 3:17–18

We desire to be a people formed in the everyday presence of God’s Spirit as He applies what Jesus has done through His life, death, and resurrection to His church, individually and corporately. It is only by the power of the Holy Spirit that we are able to obey the “one another’s” of Scripture and display a glimpse of the kingdom to an unbelieving world.

Gospel Truth

January 15, 2023 • Aaron Kirkland • John 1:1–18, Genesis 3:15, 1 Samuel 7:12–16, Luke 24:25–27, Deuteronomy 7:7–8

We desire to be a people formed by the Gospel in all of life-the Good News that God saves sinners through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Oftentimes, Scripture will refer to the Gospel as the word of truth, which should send our thoughts to two places: Jesus and His word. In other words, we seek to know, obey, and enjoy Jesus, God’s Incarnate Word, as revealed by God’s written word, the Scripture.
