Beautiful People

October 15, 2023 • Pastor Phil Burdoin • Romans 10:9–15, Isaiah 52:7

We now know our calling, to reach our Oikos, our 8-15 people. We understand the power of the gospel. The next step is to go because people need to see what it looks like to follow Jesus but they also need to hear about the good news as well. People cannot respond to what they do not know and we must tell them.

In It For the Long Haul

October 22, 2023 • Pastor Bill West • 2 Peter 3:8–12

Why does God keep must here on this earth and not take us to be with Him when we come to know Him? What is it that we can only do here that we will not be able to do when we leave this world? The only answer as to why we are still here and why he has not returned is simply we are here to continue to share the good news of Christ by the way we live and the words we share. We must be in it for the long haul. In It For the Long Haul

Unashamed of the Gospel

October 8, 2023 • Gilbert Foster • Romans 1:16–17

In a world where truth is relative and people are private, many Christians have become afraid of ashamed to share the good news about Jesus. However, as followers of Christ, we can be assured that the gospel has the power to change lives and the Holy Spirit will lead us as we are open and willing to engage in meaningful conversations with those God had places in our “Oikos”. We do not have to allow fear or shame to stop us. The gospel alone has the power to save. Unashamed of the Gospel

Understanding the Gospel

October 1, 2023 • Pastor Bill West • Ephesians 2:1–10

The word gospel is used quite often in Christian circles. However, if you were to ask 10 people what it means you might get 10 different answers. It’s important that we have a correct understanding of the gospel for ourselves before we ever attempt to talk about it with others. The gospel is good news but it also involves the need to understand there is bad news that comes before the good news. Understanding the Gospel
