Lovers in a Dangerous Time

April 3, 2020

Not for one second does Jesus suggest loving an enemy is easy. But, that doesn’t change the fact that it is exactly what he has called us to do. So, the disciple of Jesus needs to have the attitude that being like God (the cross) is more important than hating my hate for another.

Go the Extra Mile

March 29, 2020

The world is convinced that it is good. It can be blind to its own selfishness. Christians are called to reveal the world to itself. One way we do this is by going the extra mile. Our attitude is that we will out live the world (in terms of goodness).

Don’t Sell Me

March 22, 2020

We live in a world of words designed to influence us according to different agendas. It’s tempting to use our own Christian words to do the same. But, to do so would be to do violence to others. Our attitude needs to be nonviolence—we will speak simply, trusting God.

Keep Being An Old Softy

March 15, 2020

Marriage represents our most intimate relationships: relationships with God and with each other. So, our attitudes towards marriage mirror these other relationships. The attitude Jesus disciples must have is not to treat those relationships lightly by casting them away. Instead, we need to want to protect each other.

No Time to Fool Around

March 8, 2020

Our culture tells us that its okay to look as long as we don’t touch. But, the disciple of Jesus knows that looking will lead to touching. So, the disciple maintains the attitude that our relationship with Jesus is the most important thing—too important to fool around with.

We Are Prayer Dependent

February 16, 2020

We believe that prayer is essential to following after God. Like Jesus, we need frequent times when we are seeking God for a reaffirmation of our identity as God’s people and a reminder of our mission. Like Scripture, prayer is a major discipline for our corporate body.

We Are Spiritually Equipped

February 9, 2020

We believe that God has gifted his body of believers, men and women equally, for the work of discipling and mission. Every believer has been equipped by God’s Spirit to build up the body and/or to do works of service for the world. Everyone is encouraged to discover their gifts and share them to the best of their ability.

We Are Discipleship Focused

February 2, 2020

We believe that God is transforming us into the image of his Son. This means that we are intentionally submitting ourselves to be re-formed through daily practices that lead to spiritual growth. We also recognize that at the heart of our mission as a church, we are to disciple others through those same daily practices.
