Christ Community Chapel

Our friend Tom Randall reminds us to keep our perspective attuned to the works of God, in hopes that we might catch even the unseen ways that he protects his children. What do you treasure? We can say with confidence that our father in heaven treasures us.

Joe Coffey | This week, we conclude our series on growing in Christ as we explore our own brokenness and hear a different way to heal. Pastor Joe surveys stories of Jesus, the Great Physician, to show that spiritual healing is available in Christ if we readily and regularly look for it.

Mike Holwerda | We exist to see people come to know Jesus, grow in him, and serve him daily. This week, we continue our discussion on what it means to grow in Jesus and live differently as we survey what Romans 12:1-2 teaches us.

Caleb Eernisse | We exist to see people come to know Jesus, grow in him, and serve him daily. This week, we continue our discussion on what it means to grow in Jesus and live differently as we survey what Romans 12:1-2 teaches us.

Joe Coffey | Why does CCC gather together in worship, love, and service the way that we do? This week, we read through the end of Acts 2 and consider an entirely different way to live together as a church in hopes to be changed ourselves and to change others.

Abdu Murray | When you are confronted with the truth, sometimes the truth hurts. This week, we hear Abdu Murray share the story of his faith as it changed from Islam to Christ, from what he understood merely as a set of rules and regulations to a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Joe Coffey | This week, we look at the source of the power that transforms us, the Holy Spirit, as well as how it is that God uses the Holy Spirit to change us. We see that the Holy Spirit renews us from the inside out, empowering us to live for Christ.

Joe Coffey | Beauty draws us in, attracting us and affecting us in powerful ways. It can focus our attention, refresh us and make intimidating change feel worth it… empowering us to be transformed. To be what God wants us to be, we must first see and respond to his beauty and the beauty of all he has created. Once we realize that he is our reward, then we can meaningfully shift to become more like...

Joe Coffey | Suffering is one of the best and most terrible gifts God gives us. No one wants to experience suffering, yet when we do, we often find that God uses it to show what we truly believe and truly love. Suffering can make us angry or confused, but it can also make us better friends, neighbors, mentors and humans. Most importantly, it shows us the nature of our hearts, others’ hearts and Go...

Todd Iannetta | As we continue our focus on how God shapes our lives through impactful interactions and subtle shifts, we’re looking at the importance of mentorships. Without mentors, we wouldn’t know how to do anything… Learning from others is an essential part of human development, and mentorship has been crucial to the spreading of the Christian faith since Jesus first taught his disciples more...

Joe Coffey | From the very earliest days of the church, fellowship with cherished friends has been an important part of the Christian experience. God never meant for man to be alone, and we find that strong relationships with other followers of Jesus are just as important today as they were 2,000 years ago. This week, hear Pastor Joe explain why it is we need friends to grow in our faith, what sor...

Jimmy Kozy | Men are called in the Bible to be leaders within their households and beyond, but what does that look like today? As we continue our series called “Man Month” at CCC, this week we discuss what it means to live like a man of purity in our pursuit of God.

Jim Colledge | This week, we continue “Man Month” at CCC as we discuss a man and his legacy. We all have a legacy, whether good or not so good, and Pastor Jim Colledge takes us to Nehemiah 5:17-19 and 13:14-31 to reflect on how it is that we will be remembered by others. Learn how one’s goodness, godliness, integrity and servitude influence a man’s legacy.

Joe Coffey | This week, we look at what it means to be courageous as a man of God, persevering through suffering and finding ways to become more like Jesus in the process. Courage is the motivation to do something challenging because you have a commitment to someone or something that supersedes your desire for comfort, pleasure and happiness. You can’t always choose your times to be courageous, bu...

Caleb Eernisse | This week, we kick off “Man Month” at CCC by talking about what it looks like to be a “man after God’s own heart,” much like King David was. Whether you’re “feasting on the Word of God” by reading, studying and acting upon Biblical truth, repenting wholeheartedly when you sin or worshiping God and ascribing all glory to him, hear what it takes to live as a man of God in today’s br...

Todd Iannetta | The Bible is a book that has the ability to reshape lives. In a “post-truth” society, it is as important as ever that we recognize God’s word as authoritative in our lives. The Bible won’t change us if we compromise on what it says, nor if we don’t recognize and accept God’s grace through Jesus’ death on the cross. After all, we are designed to live the fullest lives while living w...

Joe Coffey | We often think of worshiping as a choice, but in reality, everyone worships something. We all have a desire for something greater than ourselves, and that’s why we become fans of sports teams, musicians, actors and other entities to the extent that they become part of our identities. The object of our worship changes, but we all worship in one way or another. This week, Pastor Joe Cof...

Joe Coffey | Good news has the power to impact us and change us long-term. There is no more striking example of this truth than the gospel of Jesus Christ, which is so good, so strong, so wonderful and goes so deep that it has the power to change you every day in every way until you die… and then beyond. Today, Pastor Joe explains what the gospel is, what the gospel means and how the gospel change...

Joe Coffey | This week, Pastor Joe kicks off a new series called “Agents of Change,” focusing on the nature of prayer and its ability to impact our lives. While the power of prayer can be hard to measure, the Bible makes it clear that prayer is an important part of our relationship with God. Hear some common mistakes people make about prayer, the importance of pairing prayer with action and how CC...

Tom Randall | In Philemon 1:7, we hear Paul say to his friend Philemon, “Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord’s people.” As missionary and chaplain Tom Randall explains today through a series of personal stories, whether it’s showing kindness to a non-believer or being encouraged by a close friend, refreshment is a powerful...

Joe Coffey | In Mark 10:23, we hear Jesus say, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!” It is a verse that can make us uncomfortable, as most of us have more than we need yet don’t like parting with our riches. While money can be a powerful barrier to walking with God, it can also be a powerful tool for creating joy and showing obedience to the Lord. This week, we hear the story...

Joe Coffey | This week, we look at the story of Thomas, the disciple of Jesus infamous for his doubt. While he may have been among the first Christians to express doubt in Jesus, he was far from the last. There is a type of healthy doubt that helps to refine and mature our faith, especially for those who have been raised in Christianity. However, doubt can also come in the form of a crisis of fait...

Sam Allberry | In John 4, we read the story of Jesus’ encounter with an outcast woman drawing water from a well. It would have been a scandalous story during those days, as men were not supposed to speak to women they didn’t know—especially not with Samaritans, whom the Jews looked down upon. Yet we see no hesitation in Jesus, who sees beyond the cultural barriers to perceive a person with a deep...
