From Matt Wiegand… I have to tell you how impressed I was of the JFL Varsity football team a couple Saturdays ago. Football is just a game, but a great one to teach young men how to work together, how to be tough physically and how to be tough mentally. As rough as football can […]
Read more "Overcomers"From Kevin Funk… One rule in our community group that we try to communicate to each other is that when we have discussion, we aren’t going to try to act like Bible scholars. As we grow in our walk with Jesus, we pick up different terms or ideas along the road. Some stick, some don’t. […]
Read more "Above Reproach"On Sunday, September 22, we looked at putting Jesus first in prayer, and Colossians 1:9-14. Over the past month, as an elder team, we’ve been praying these 6 verses for one another on our team. Allowing these verses to guide our own prayer for one another. For me personally, it has been encouraging to know […]
Read more "First in Prayer"Psalm 9:10: Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. The way you address God or refer to Him is one indicator to the depth of your relationship or lack thereof it. Think of it this way. What you call me reveals how well […]
Read more "What do you call God?"I loved show and tell day in grade school. Bringing the project or collection from home, the pet, the random souvenir that I got on vacation. Show and tell day was this opportunity to reveal something about yourself to your class. Maybe something they didn’t know, or maybe something that they’d heard you talk about, […]
Read more "Show and Tell"From Dan McClain… James 5:16 (ESV): Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. There are no perfect people. When someone comes to Jesus to be saved, it means that the person believes […]
Read more "Authentic Accountability"Following the first service on September 1, I felt the conviction of the Lord. It was this quiet whisper, but consistent none the less. It was this… “Dave, you did not bring your best there.” I don’t know if it was the 3 day weekend, or a late Saturday night of working on other church […]
Read more "Bring Your Best"On Sunday, September 15, we begin a new series called First. The word, ‘first,’ is defined as coming before all others in time or order. Things that are first impact everything else in your life. Things that are first are put at the center of everything else. When building a house, you first start with […]
Read more "First – Begins September 15"From Kevin Funk… I really enjoy sharing with you all what God puts on my heart. This blog is not only a great tool for us pastors and elders to help communicate to the body, but I know speaking for me it also sharpens my awareness of the broken world around me to give you […]
Read more "A Lost Son"We’re continuing our Mythbusters series. Unfortunately, there is a myth out there that church in general is only for the so called ‘clean’ people. That before you walk in the doors of a church, or attend a service, you’d better clean up your act, dress the part, and act as if everything is perfect in […]
