In nature, life always leads to new life. Strong, healthy trees propagate by scattering seeds, and our church should be no different. We are called not only to do strong ministry in the present but also to multiply our ministry in the future. We are called to plant the seeds of new ministries and even new churches. And by buying our building, we can start now. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of...

God calls us to do incredible ministry in this city. But the simple truth is that we can’t be renters forever. For Artisan’s ministry to endure, we have to take true ownership of our building. If we are committed to sharing Christ’s love in our neighborhood, we need to sink our roots deep into the soil where God has planted us. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Deeply Rooted: Build...

God has called us to be a shady place of safety for many weary spiritual travelers—people who don’t meet the expectations they feel church places on them. We love hearing people tell us, “I could never fit in at church… until I found Artisan.” It’s our great joy to be a place of spiritual shelter! Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Deeply Rooted: Building On Our Calling ”

Everyone loves a tree that grows good fruit. God has blessed Artisan Church with fruitful ministry over the years, and we want to do more! But without a permanent home, we can’t bear this good fruit much longer. We have to be deeply rooted if we want to continue to be fruitful.

We must welcome everyone Jesus invites into community with us, regardless of whether or not we think they are worthy of it. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Jesus on Community: The words of the Lord about life together ”

Radical forgiveness takes community to the next level. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Jesus on Community: The words of the Lord about life together ”

Christian unity means staying together as one body in spite of our differences. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Jesus on Community: The words of the Lord about life together ”

We will never be successful living in community unless we surrender everything to Jesus, “taking up our cross” to follow him. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Jesus on Community: The words of the Lord about life together ”

Holy Communion (a.k.a. “the Eucharist” or “the Lord’s Supper”) is the sacrament of sustenance . It is not only an act of remembrance and unity but the “food for our souls.” Come to learn and partake! Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ The Means of Grace: The sacraments of baptism and communion ”

Baptism is the rite of initiation into the community of faith, the outward physical sign of an inward spiritual reality. Why do we practice it for adults? For children? We’ll talk about all that and more. And we’ll baptize several Artisan folks to boot! Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ The Means of Grace: The sacraments of baptism and communion ”

Anna Valeria-Iseman will share a great, practical message detailing the specifics of Artisan’s coming partnership with The Bridge, her community outreach group. Speaker: Anna Valeria-Iseman, Leadership Team member Part of the series “ Building Bridges: Working for local justice ”

We’ll first look at the biblical mandate for justice and then turn to the example of Jesus, whose incarnation was about as “local” a phenomenon as you could imagine! Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ Building Bridges: Working for local justice ”

After talking for several weeks about what the church is and ought to be, we’ll bring it close to home with a message about the particular calling and unique vision and values of Artisan Church. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin and Anna Valeria-Iseman Part of the series “ What is the Church?: (and what it’s not) ”

The old joke says that pastors only work one day a week. In this message, Pastor Scott will share about his personal calling to ministry and who a pastor is and what a pastor does (and does not do) in the church. Speaker: Pastor Scott Austin Part of the series “ What is the Church?: (and what it’s not) ”

The church is a worldwide body, and we’re thrilled to hear a message from Pastor George Nsamba, who pastors our brothers and sisters in Uganda. Speaker: Pastor George Nsamba Part of the series “ What is the Church?: (and what it’s not) ”

One of Jesus’ most famous parables suggests that the seeds of faith sometimes grow among weeds that threaten to choke and kill. Liz Irvine will bring a profound message about how the people of the church must be willing to make the difficult transition from childhood belief to adult faith. Speaker: Liz Irvine Part of the series “ What is the Church?: (and what it’s not) ”

We’ll live out the truth of our fellowship together with an Artisan tradition: the Fifth Sunday Festival . Great music, inspiring personal stories, and a fantastic potluck lunch afterward. Speaker: The people of Artisan Church Part of the series “ What is the Church?: (and what it’s not) ”
