Flatirons Community Church Audio Podcast

At the beginning of each year many of us focus on what lies ahead, what we want to accomplish or do in the future but it's vital that if we want the future to look any different from the past we must be willing to put our lives "under review." We have to look back before we can move forward.

Our final stop this Christmas weekend is the dining room where we'll look at the idea of "Food reflects a true theology of grace."

If a home is to survive the storms of "not enough time, not enough money, too much to do", Jesus teaches a principle of intentionally making room for someone else in your life that He really cares about.

Most of the time, our problem is not what happens IN the bedroom, as much as everything that we bring INTO the bedroom with us.

Parents are charged with the task of training their children to become the kind of people who are right at home in God’s kingdom.

The "Living Room" is a symbol of "living together." The problem, though, is too many of us have settled for something much different than "living together."

A home that will not fall apart must have protection, clear boundaries and distinct roles for each member.

If you were to complete this mission statement regarding the CURRENT state of your home, what words would you use? "As for me and my house, we ..."

Because of what Jesus has done for us we believe the most loving thing we can do for others is to go to them and invite them to come and see who Jesus is and what He has done for them.

Using our spiritual gifts, talents, abilities, resources, passions and creativity, we believe that it is our role and responsibility to create excellent environments and eliminate any and all obstacles so that people have the best opportunity to encounter (bump into) Jesus so that He can do what only He can do.

We are committed to being the kind of people who reflect both the purpose and the personality of Jesus by leveraging the gifts Jesus has given us for the benefit of others both inside the church and outside the church.

We believe that living life together in a safe "me too" community is the best opportunity for pursuing truth and grace through intentional apprenticeship to Jesus.

We believe that following Jesus involves implementing a strategy to enthrall yourself with God and eliminate any obstacles or responses that stand against God's good intentions for you.

No matter what you have done wrong, we believe that by grace through faith in Jesus alone, it is still possible to be reconnected back into an intimate relationship with God.

The Bible is God's Word and it is our authority for life. If we will adjust our lives (submit) to it, we will find a better way to live.

A man wisely engages in all that God has commanded him to do, empowered by the Grace of God.

A man is willing to perish to his own wants and desires to provide and protect the needs of others.

A man regularly makes a brutally honest assessment of his life.

A man of honor spends his life on the things and people that matter most as God defines "most important."

Before anything else is in place, courageous submission to God's Word, even when it is hard, painful and inconvenient, must be the first characteristic in a man's life.

In this introductory message, Jim explains why we are doing another series on this particular subject.

If we CHOOSE to reveal, God WILL show up and heal.

What do you do when you don't feel like God is with you?

Just like Moses, we all wrestle with voices and messages from our past that seem like impassable, impossible oceans of insecurity and self-hatred which will destroy us unless God, the great I AM, splits that sea.

God doesn't "need" a person like you. You need a God like Him.
