The Body of Christ - The RIM Church

Authority In The Body / Elder Board Commissioning

August 4, 2024 • LaShaude James

This week we explore what biblical authority looks like in spaces like parenting, work, and the church. Our first Elder Board was commissioned by our body at The Rim on August 4, 2024!

Mission Of The Church

July 28, 2024 • LaShaude James

As believers, we are ALL a part of the church body. We study what it looks like to not just go to church, but be the church within and outside of our gatherings.

Serving One Another

July 21, 2024 • Kristin Soileau • Luke 22:7–13, 1 Timothy 6:17–19, Ephesians 2:8–10, John 15:5–8, 1 Corinthians 12:4–7

Jesus calls us on a Great Adventure to join Him in serving others to build His kingdom. Will you abide in Him and answer His call to serve?

Honoring One Another

July 14, 2024 • Austin Johnson

It’s in the heart of the Father that the Son would be honored. In honoring the Son, we are able to honor one another and see tangible elements of the Kingdom come.

The Ministry of Presence

July 7, 2024 • Carmel Gabriel • 1 Corinthians 13:1–8, Romans 8:6, Ephesians 1:8–10, James 3:14–17, Galatians 5:19–23

The ministry of God, how God chooses to minister to people, is presence. God is uniting heaven and earth by His presence, and His ministry of presence first begins in us and then is extended through us.

Unity In The Body

June 30, 2024 • Steve Fletcher • John 17:20–23, Ephesians 1:9–10, 1 Corinthians 12:12–26

This week we study the emphasis on unity in the context of the church body. We are all called to operate together in unity, not elevating or idolizing one part of the body over the other. All parts of the body work together for God's glory!

Body As The Bride

June 23, 2024 • Austin Johnson • Ephesians 5:25–27, 1 Corinthians 6:12–20, Revelation 22:12–17, Mark 2:18–22, Jeremiah 3:1–5

When we see Jesus as our bridegroom King, it beckons us to see ourselves as his bride. Are we a bride that mourns for him? A bride that stores up oil for him? A bride that is pure and set apart for him?

Jesus as Bridegroom

June 16, 2024 • Austin Johnson • Revelation 2:1–7, Ephesians 5:25–32, John 3:27–30, Isaiah 62:5, Ezekiel 16:8–14

Jesus is looking and longing for a bride that will love him and comfort him with a bridal love, first love. Obedience is not enough, belief alone is not enough. He did not die for a loveless marriage. He stands at the door and knocks…will you let him in to sit with you?

Jesus is Lord | Head Of The Body

June 9, 2024 • LaShaude James • Romans 14:7–12, Romans 10:9–13, Luke 6:46–49, Matthew 7:21–23, 1 John 3:4–10

Jesus is Lord! We explore the Lordship of Jesus and how His Headship impacts us as the Body of Christ.
