In our text today, John has a strong encouragement for the church: "remain in fellowship with Christ" (NLT). But how do we do this? Pastor Jeff will teach us what this looks like by taking a detour and pulling out practical instruction from Colossians 3. We are taught what this looks like as a church and it begins with getting rid of old practices and putting in place new spiritual values.

A Changed Heart = A Changed Life (Pt. 2)

March 10, 2024 • Jeff Cramer • 1 John 5:6–21

History tells the story about Alexander the Great and how there was a man in his army who was not acting brave in battle. When he should have been pressing in he was lingering back! Alexander approached & asked “What’s your name soldier?” The man answered: “Sir my name is Alexander.” The great general looked this soldier in the eye & said “Get in there and fight or change your name!” John teaches us that when we identify our life with Christ, by faith, we overcome the world! No longer do we shrink back in defeat but we stand strong until Satan flees!

A Changed Heart = A Changed Life

March 3, 2024 • Jeff Cramer • 1 John 5:1–5

John concludes this book by speaking of the reality of being changed forever! I’ve pastored this church for the last 12-years and I see the church as the family of God on earth with many needing to be connected to God’s truth. Yet, one of the challenges of our time is that people have a fascination with identifying problems and treating symptoms to feel better but never getting better!

The Balance of the Christian Life

February 18, 2024 • Jeff Cramer • 1 John 4:7–21

John continues on with the third test on how a child of God should understand the balance between the assurance God gives us and the warnings He lays out! We’ve been told repeatedly that God is love and we’ve also been instructed that because God is love we too should love! So what does that love look like?
