The Gospel House

Romans 15 gives us some great promises…maybe the greatest gift we’ll ever receive, but it comes at the cost of Him asking us to do the hardest thing we’ll ever do.

In Romans 14, Paul gives us some guidance in navigating differences in regard to our individual walks with the Holy Spirit. Why do so many Christians differ in matters of their conscience, what they can eat, what they can drink, etc.; and how to we navigate that?

Paul tells us in Romans 13 to submit ourselves to governing authorities. He also pairs his teachings up with some of Jesus’ best defenses against Pharisee attacks. So what does it mean to render to Caesar what is Caesar’s, how do we do it, and why should we do it?

How do we find God's heart in Paul's direction to the Church in his instructions on how to operate in the Spirit found in 1 Corinthians 11 - 14? It all comes back to the Gospel and living "poor in spirit".

The Church in the United States needs to get to work! And just like Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 12, we ALL have a part to play in this rebuild.

The second part of the call to plant the Gospel House church was a focus on allowing the Gospel to redefine who we call our family and how we live together covenantally.

To kick off our series on who we are as the Gospel House church, we start with who we were initially called to be.

In 2 Kings 13 we find Elisha, the man of God, on his deathbed. BUT HE ISN’T DONE SERVING GOD YET! And God isn’t done using Elisha! In his final breaths AND BEYOND!

Make no mistake, God is never late in keeping his promises, but he rarely moves on our timeline in the way we want - instantly and on demand. We see this in 2 Kings chapters 8 -10 when God fulfills promises he gave Elijah twenty years beforehand that are now being carried out by Elisha.

What a story we get in 2 Kings 6! An evil king whose plans are thwarted, an army of angels and chariots of fire, and most importantly, the same grace of God that permeates the entire Bible!
