Christ Church South Philadelphia

What frustrates you? What brings discouragement? What can cause anger or sadness? Sometimes in the midst of those emotions life can seem like it is a mess. But this Sunday, God wants to encourage our souls. Join us as we continue our series "The Story Behind the Song" and look at Psalm 90 and Numbers 20. Good news, there is mercy in the mess.

In this uncertain life, the grip of fear and anxiety can often lay ahold of us. But God wants to lead us to a place of peace. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series "The Story Behind the Song" and consider the story behind Psalm 23 and the peace that comes from having the Lord as our Shepherd.

Have you ever felt like, how did I get here? We can all be there at times. This Sunday we are going to see one of those moment's in David's life and how God led him back to a place of restoration. Join us as we look at From Ruin to Repentance: God's Guide for Lasting Change.

Have you ever felt inadequate? Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Have you ever been fearful, sad, or even crushed in spirit? We all can experience these things. They are part of being human. God can meet us in these vulnerable states in powerful ways. Join us this Sunday as we start a new series in the book of Psalms where we will study some of these powerful songs and look at the real-life situatio...

To be a Christian is to believe that God can do powerful things. But our struggle can be to believe that God can do powerful things through us. Join us this Sunday as we see how God wants to use ordinary people for His extraordinary purposes as we finish our series in Colossians by looking at "The Ordinary Person's Guide to Sharing Christ."

God has a great purpose for each of our lives. It is grand, and beautiful, and eternal. But it gets worked out in the everyday stuff of life. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in Colossians and look at how there is Sacred in the Ordinary.

The church is not an institution governed by people, but a community created by God. Therefore, God gets to say who we are and how we should relate to one another. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in Colossians and see what Jesus wants for His church and how embracing His desires for us will lead to our deeper delight in Him.

What if part of our struggles in life is that we don't realize what we have already in Christ? This Sunday Pastor Caleb will continue in our series in Colossians and bring a sermon on what it means to be raised with Christ and how that is meant to make a difference in our daily lives

One of the things that God wants to do in our lives is rescue us from the self made religion that we can follow. Join us this Sunday as we see how God has something better in store for us than going through religious motions. There is a deeper, truer, and more satisfying life in Christ if we are willing to open ourselves to Him.

One of the beautiful things about how God has revealed himself is that He has done so in relational terms. He is not only our Creator, but our Father. Few things are meant to be more life-giving on a day-to-day basis, then understanding what it means to have God as our Father. Join us this Sunday as we consider the forgotten fatherhood of God.

God wants more for us than just believing in Him. He wants us to know how to walk with Him. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in Colossians and hear how about we can more and more learn to walk with Christ in the everyday stuff of our lives.

We can have so different many hopes and dreams for our life. But what if God has a better plan? This Sunday we will explore how God invites us to join Him in what He is doing all around the world.

There is much in this world that competes for our attention and affection, and yet nothing is more important to our spiritual health than keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus. To help fight distraction we need a renewed vision of just how great Jesus is, and a greater understanding of His preeminence over all things. I can't wait to gather this Sunday with you as we continue our series in Colossian...

We are excited to have Pastor Ian back with us this Sunday. He will be giving an update about the San Jose Church plant and preaching a sermon about God's mission and our part in it. Hope you can join us!

What God wants to do in us is not just about us. Part of how God works in our lives is through working through us in the lives of others. And there is no greater way that we can be used by God in His purposes for other people than to pray for them. So join us this Sunday as we continue our series in Colossians and look at the Power of a Praying Church.

What if there was a daily practice that could drive fear, stress, and anxiety far from us and allow us to thrive? As we continue in our series in Colossians we are going to see a perspective Paul had that allowed gave him grace and peace wherever he went. I look forward to sharing with you about what God has to say in Colossians 1:3-8 about Growing in Gratitude.

What will lead to a meaningful and satisfying life? What is true success? How can we thrive in our relationships, our jobs, our finances, and our faith?

As Christians, we know that God has called us to live lives of godliness and spiritual growth. Yet with all that we have going on in our busy lives, how do we do this? Where do we find the resources we need? Join us this Sunday as we see what God has to say about all this in the letter of 2 Peter.

This Sunday we will be finishing our series in the book of Jude. The final two verses are some of my favorite verses in the entire Bible. I believe God has a powerful message of encouragement for us as we explore His promise that He will hold us fast. Speaker: Pastor Jeff Boettcher

In a world of confusion, how can you tell if faith is real and genuine or fake and counterfeit? Not in others, how can you tell that in yourself? Join us as we continue in our series in the book of Jude and see what God says about how we can protect ourselves against Counterfeit Christianity. Speaker: Pastor Jeff Boettcher

The judgment of God is a hard topic to think about. It can often be used in manipulative ways and weaponized against people. It can also seem contradictory to God's message of love and welcome.
