Give

One of the primary purposes and missions of the church is to glorify God. In this sermon from Romans 12:1-2, we look at Paul’s reasons to glorify God, his request to glorify God, and the results in glorifying God. As individuals and as a church, may we bring glory to him through proclaiming the wondrous works of Jesus Christ, as we live transformed lives that reflect the glory of our Lord and Savior.

November 28, 2021 • Pastor Phil Kooistra

God has called the church to equip the saints for the work of ministry. In this sermon, Pastor Phil Kooistra explains what the term “edification” means, where this calling can be found in Scripture, as well as how believers can help edify one another.

The Mission of the Church: Make Disciples

November 21, 2021 • Pastor Neal Hackbarth • Matthew 28:18–20

One of the most important missions that Christ has given his church is to make disciples. In this sermon from Matthew 28:18-20, we see that we make disciples by going where he sends us, by baptizing new believers, and by teaching them to observe all that he has commanded us. Biblical discipleship must be centered on the gospel and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.
