#5: Rooted

February 6, 2022 • Brad Parkhurst

We know that the Bible is more than just a collection of moral rules or some kind of theological reference book. The Scriptures are LIVING and ACTIVE, and we go in regularly to meet with Jesus. It’s not just useful for teaching; we depend on it as our “daily bread”. We can’t survive long without it!

THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT //
Though we live in a dark world, the future is always bright in the Kingdom of God, and in this church! We're spending this season talking about where we are, where we're going, and how we're going to get there, in Jesus' name.

#1: Privileged to Serve

January 9, 2022 • Brad Parkhurst • Matthew 9:35–38

In this church family, we see serving as a privilege. To be used by Jesus as his hands and feet is a beautiful responsibility. Serving proves our faith, cultivates humility, and leads us to fulfill the Great Commission. THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT // Though we live in a dark world, the future is always bright in the Kingdom of God, and in this church! We're spending this season talking about where we are, where we're going, and how we're going to get there, in Jesus' name.

#2: Raising Up The Next Generation

January 16, 2022 • Jonah Salyers • Psalm 78

Young people are NOT "the Church of tomorrow", they are the Church of today! Jesus has called us to raise up the next generation, teaching them to know, trust, and obey God, and inspiring them to live a life that counts for Jesus. THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT // Though we live in a dark world, the future is always bright in the Kingdom of God, and in this church! We're spending this season talking about where we are, where we're going, and how we're going to get there, in Jesus' name.

#3: Authenticity

January 23, 2022 • Brad Parkhurst • Psalm 139

When the enemy has you in the dark, it's easy to believe that you're alone, things are hopeless, and nobody would understand. Bringing our struggles to God and to other people can be uncomfortable, but Jesus promises us that freedom and healing are always waiting for us on the other side. THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT // Though we live in a dark world, the future is always bright in the Kingdom of God, and in this church! We're spending this season talking about where we are, where we're going, and how we're going to get there, in Jesus' name.
