Christ Journey Church

Over the next four weeks of this series, we are focusing on refining our E.D.G.E. We will dive deep into the topics of Evangelism, Discipleship, Generosity, and Empowerment. It’s always good to review these practices so as not to forget that as Christians, we’re meant to give something different to the world.

An infinite perspective requires faith beyond the black and white of things. The invitation today is to pause and think about the ways God activates His infinite hope in us and then makes us the evidence of infinite hope for others. God brings His infinite hope into clarity when we taste a bit of it through each other.

Today we’re gonna explore what is arguably the most phenomenal verse in the Bible. That’s quite a claim, isn’t? This verse is a declaration of infinite hope, and it is found in the Book of Romans, chapter 8, verse 28: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

How are you feeling today? Disappointed? Frustrated? Hurt? If you or someone you know and care about can relate, today’s message will be of help. God has given us tools for facing times like these. Our current series is about learning them, applying them, and finding yourself reinvigorated through the power of God’s encouragement for us.

Do you love surprises? In this season of quarantine, maybe you’ve been surprised by God in some way. As we start our new series, Infinite Hope, we open taking a look at a story in Acts 16 that is full of surprises– some are puzzling and other times bewildering, but this chapter helps us see how to follow God and remain faithful.

The last installment of our current series brings us into the final horseman of the Apocalypse, the one riding on the Pale Horse. According to the Scriptures, the rider was named Death and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by the sword, famine, plague, and by the beasts of the earth. Although scary topics to talk about, by putting our fa...

Part three of our current series takes us into the meaning of The Black Horse of the Apocalypse. It represents the undoing and unraveling of the basics of life – the ability to put food on the table and afford the cost of living. How much anxiety are you experiencing during the current crisis?

Part Two of our current series unveils the red horse of the Apocalypse. According to the Scriptures, its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and make men slay each other. It sounds relevant, doesn’t it? The red horse symbolizes violence, and not just globally, but also at the domestic level. Furthermore, another category that seems to fit the red horse is the thirst for revenge and...

In this series, we are taking a look through the eyes of the Apostle John and his vision of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse from the book of Revelation. The horsemen riding in symbolize disasters unleashed in the world because of sin and rebellion of humanity against God. In other words, it’s an unveiling of the consequences of human sin. Today we focus our attention on The White Horse represe...

The institutional church isn’t the bridge to life; God’s people are. If you're a believer, you’re now living your life in the full expression and experience of God, so grow into someone others can trust. There is only one of you and you have something to offer that no one else can.

Adulting is one of those things you will learn by doing. The chaos, complications, and challenges that come with it will develop your adult self. We will always be growing up in life, and the same is true with our spiritual growth. Can you see yourself being a spiritual parent or even grandparent?

What’s the difference between a spiritual adult and a spiritual parent? Spiritual parents give life to others by helping them grow in their faith. Who would God like you to reach?

Our message for today, Compassion in Action, takes a pause from our current series in order to address the situation we are seeing in mainstream media over the last few weeks. We are grateful to be joined by Pastor Eddy Gervais, Senior Pastor of Community Christian Church in Miami Gardens, FL. He will be answering questions submitted by Christ Journeyers on issues of race, justice, and politics.

We are starting a brand new series titled, Spiritual Adulting . Today we consider what it means to be all grown up. What does it mean to be a human adult? The answer is complicated. Society tries to define it in some areas, but how can you know as a Christ Follower that you are spiritually grown up?

Adolescence — it’s that period of transition between childhood and adulthood. Some say it’s the time with something to offend everyone. Can you relate? It can be a time of training, trial, testing, and turbulence. So if biological adolescence prepares us for the challenges of biological adulthood, then how does spiritual adolescence prepare us for spiritual adulthood?

Early adolescents are sometimes called tweenagers . Anyone who has had a pre-teen knows you can’t parent them the same way you do a small child. They are at a new level in their development with different needs to be addressed. In a similar way, there is also a pre-teen stage we go through as we develop spiritually.

We’ve been journeying up the continuum in human development, both biologically and spiritually. Today we’re looking at the stage of childhood, and asking the question, what is “spiritual childhood” really about? What does it look like?

Just like we go through stages of development physically, so also spiritually. For each stage God provides what we need so we can grow big and strong. Whether you're just starting out on your journey or not, you can learn to embrace the stage you're in and grow.

Newborn infants need all of the trappings of abundant life in order to grow into healthy and mature adults. In the same way, newborn Christians require the intentional care of mature parents in the faith to help them take their first breaths of new life! New birth results when God’s infinite Spirit of love and power takes up residence in our finite lives, cleansing us from the inside out.

God designed every human being for spiritual life and growth. What the Evil One tried to steal from us through sin and death, God has more than replaced in Christ and salvation. When we receive Christ as our personal Lord and Savior, His plan is that we grow spiritually and get to know Him. Where are you in your growth? Where do you want to be? Where does God want to take you?

About a week after Jesus rose from the dead, he appeared to the disciples. It's then when he tells Thomas to reach out his hand and put it on his side, stop doubting and believe. And suddenly the scars took on a whole new meaning. They became doorways into life change– access to great transformation. Do you have scars? God can do amazing things with broken places.

Happy Easter! No matter where you're connecting with us, we're praying for you to find God in new powerful and personal ways. The Easter message matters in our world today perhaps more than ever. Easter claims Jesus took on, survived and overcame the disease of sin and now offers his blood as our solution and salvation. Open your hearts to let the blood of Jesus bring you healing this day, and let...

The saying goes, “not all who wander are lost.” It’s actually a lesson Scripture affirms. We’re all in a wilderness right now, aren’t we? But consider this, it’s possible to find sacred space in it as we let God’s promises become our provision. Let us encourage one another today.

Sometimes life blindsides you and sometimes God surprises you– and sometimes they happen at the same time. Our new series is called ‘Sacred Space’. If there’s something we’re all learning these days it’s that God is not bound by building, schedule or religious ritual, but wants to share himself with all of us in every and any space.
