Hello, Fellowship! In Luke 12:13-34, Jesus warns of the perils of pursuing the wrong kind of treasure in life – a worldly treasure. And conversely, he cautions against anxiety over limited resources.

Real relationship with God is made possible because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This Sunday we will examine the evidence of an eyewitness account of that first Easter morning.

Every year when we come to this particular Friday, we do so with solemnity as we seek to grasp the significance of Jesus Christ’s death on our behalf. Philippians 3:7-11 reveals the profound ways we are made new by knowing Christ, His death and resurrection.

This Easter season the watching world wonders, “Why do Christians worship Jesus Christ?” There are people in your life that have this question about you. The profound answer is revealed in the events surrounding Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem recorded in John 12:12-26.

If you want to know what thriving believers and spiritual leaders look like, 1 Thessalonians 2:1-8 is your text. This Sunday we will see firsthand the key traits Jesus develops in the lives of growing disciples.

We are accustomed to saying, “Good morning,” but when you are suffering it may be difficult to know what is “good” and where that “good” can be found. Every human knows hardship. Today we will see firsthand from Paul’s personal experience how we can thrive in the face of suffering by taking to heart 1 Thessalonians 2:1-2.

Vision is vital. Whether it be in parenting, coaching, or running a business, a lack of vision can create a lot of confusion.

This Sunday we will see what God’s vision is for a LIFE-giving, disciple-making church in Colossians 1:28-29.

What are believers in a thriving church known for? The answer to this very important question may likely surprise you as we shall see this Sunday when we look at 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10. A truly thriving church is identified by three specific traits.

There are two key characteristics found in any church that is on track with what Jesus intended for His people. The health of Fellowship, and any church, can be measured in part by the prevalence of these two traits that the Apostle Paul highlights in 1 Thessalonians 1:5-8 as we will see this Sunday.

Every parent wants their children to thrive. God is no exception. There are certain elements that must be present for a church to have genuine spiritual health.

I am praying that 2021 will be a significant year of growing in the grace of Christ for each of u...

Ten months ago, our economic, social, and community health prospects indicated a bright future in many respects.

It has affected our political system and challenged the greatest healthcare system in the world. It has genuinely altered the w...

This Sunday we are going to discover the heart of a worshipful life that is displayed in one of the most overlooked songs of Christmas. In order to really know the joy God gives to the world in sending Christ, we need to have humility. This song of praise, “The Magnificat” found in Luke 1:46-56, will show us exactly what humility of heart looks like as it exalts the greatness of our God.

Every one of us has sung, “Joy to the World”. The question is, “How do we live with joy?” We begin to answer this question by considering an often-overlooked scene in the Christmas story recorded in Luke 1:39-45. These were life-changing events for Mary and Elizabeth and will be for us as we look at them this Sunday.
