Foundations: Discipleship

New Community Church of Tacoma

Foundations: Discipleship

May 26, 2024 • Bo Noonan • Matthew 11:25–30, 1 Kings 12:9, Matthew 4:19

Bo Noonan teaches on the Biblical call to build a foundation of learning to be with Jesus, be like Jesus, and do what Jesus did through discipleship - or apprenticeship to Jesus. This is not just a cultural construct, but a way of life that Jesus himself showed us and called us to.

Foundations: Living as Light in the Darkness

July 7, 2024 • Joe Miriello • Matthew 7:24–27, James 1:22–25, John 1:1–9, Colossians 1:13, Ephesians 5:8–14

Joe Miriello teaches on the foundational truth of God's light and order breaking in to the darkness and chaos of the world. As we hear the words of Jesus, and become doers of them, God's light increases in and through us - bringing the goodness of the kingdom of God into our lives, circumstances, and the world around us.

Foundations: The End of the World

June 30, 2024 • Bo Noonan • Acts 2:17, Matthew 19:27–30, Revelation 21:5, Hebrews 10:16–17, 2 Peter 3:5–10

Bo Noonan teaches about our foundational belief of what will happen at the end of the world. What we believe about the end of this world will shape the way we live our lives now. While many people twist the words of the Bible to create a narrative of fear, when we look to Jesus' words we find that his plan, and the plan of the Trinity of God, is not annihilation but restoration. Jesus will all things new! According to Jesus, our end times beliefs should lead us to hope, joy, and the sharing of his good news so that many, many people from every nation, tribe, and tongue will enter in to his eternal family.

Foundations: The Church

June 23, 2024 • Alastair Moyer • Acts 2:42–47, Ephesians 2:11–22, Revelation 21:1–2

Alastair Moyer teaches on the foundation of the Church. The beauty and power of God's people living life together is seen clearly in scripture. As his children, we now have to privilege of living in the current reality of every nation and language being unified in relationships and eternal purposes as those who have submitted our lives to the work of Jesus, our savior.
