Kalamazoo Church of Christ

Send us Fan Mail Nothing gives us the confidence and clarity of the future more than confidence of the past. All over the Bible there are calls and instructions to remember the past. You can look at every genre of text in the Bible and see how God is directing mankind to consider what came before. Consider Your Past. 1 Samuel 17:33-37 Consider Our Past.  Preached by Jaren Singh 1/9/22

Send us Fan Mail Join us as we look at what the commitment of Christians looks like practically. Not only do we depend on Jesus, but there is a commitment to one another that is a vital part of Christianity Jesus, Superior to all. Hebrews 1:1-4 Walk together in Jesus Representative of Jesus Preached by Kyle Perkins on 12/19/21

Send us Fan Mail Our walk with God ought to produce, prompt, and inspire actions that draw ourselves and others closer to the likeness of Christ.  1 Thessalonians 1:2-5 Work produced by faith Labor prompted by love Endurance inspired by hope Faith that comes from seeing God’s power Love from being locked into the Spirit Hope that is built on deep conviction Preached by Jaren Singh on 12/12/21

Send us Fan Mail God's scale is incomprehensible God's wisdom can be found in every Boulder field Proverbs 16:16 Proverbs 19:8 Proverbs 3:19-20 1 Kings 19:7-9 Romans 1:18-20 Psalm 19:1-4 Lesson Preached by Andrew Elliott on 11/21/21

Send us Fan Mail Gratefulness is one of the most attractive traits anyone can have – a grateful person isn’t motivated by external praise but rather by the Love of God. I want to talk about two competing values and the role they have in sapping our gratitude to God away. Everyone leans one way or the other – and there ought to be consistent self reflection regarding both of these values. The Legal...

Send us Fan Mail Our perspective during this season needs to be sharp and focused. The time during the Holiday season in particular can be stressful, and it is easy to get swept up and lose vision. Clear Direction. Matthew 10:5-15 Clear Conflict. Matthew 10:21-36 Clear Reward. Matthew 10:37-42 Preached by Jaren Singh on 11/7/21

Send us Fan Mail God calls us to be content and to connect with him through our wealth. The world teaches us something very different.  Preached by Joe Le on 10/24/21

Send us Fan Mail We arrived with 14 people from 6 different churches and in this past year there have been 3 other people who have moved in. There have been 6 baptisms since we’ve been here as well. It is inspiring to be a part of all that God is doing in Kalamazoo.  Today we are going to look at two reasons why Jesus came to the earth. Doctor to the sick. Matthew 9:9-13 Rescue for the lost. Luke...

Send us Fan Mail The disciplines of Abstinence are our way to create a dissociation between our bodies and our beings. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 - We are called to strike a blow to our bodies and make it our slaves. This is us denying our flesh and  Fasting for Discipline. Matthew 4:1-11 Fasting for God to move. Daniel 10:2-20

Send us Fan Mail People want many things in life - there are four commonalities that are present in almost every list. The reality is that what everyone wants is provided in the fullest extent by Christianity. Money (Security). Isaiah 40:9-11 Happiness (Fulfillment). Isaiah 55:8-12 Freedom. Isaiah 61:1-3 Peace. Isaiah 52:7-10 The world is asking and searching for true Christianity. We have the opp...

Send us Fan Mail Prayer is not a cosmic wishing well and it is not our chance to change God's Will. Rather it is a practice in an effort to connect with God and become more like Jesus. Our posture should be one seeking to connect with God and understand Him more as opposed to one complaining or identifying everything that is going wrong. Preached by Spencer Schulz on 9/12/21

Send us Fan Mail Importance of the disciplines: Connecting with God just to connect with God. The reward for spending time with God is more time with God. It is not a means to an end. Certainly there is a promise of heaven – but that is just more time with God.  Celebration and Worship are not often viewed as Disciplines - but without a focus on them we can tend to worship our accomplishments and...

Send us Fan Mail Spiritual Disciplines are controlled practices with the intention of growing closer to Christ. We have grown up in a society that tells us that doing spiritual things: reading the Bible, praying, etc. is a way to get what we want and be favored by God. Incorporating Spiritual Disciplines into our lives is a way to become closer to Jesus, not get what we want spiritually. Luke 13:1...

Send us Fan Mail The entirety of the Book of Acts can be summarized in 3 words: Good - Share Good News Jesus - Create Jesus Centered Communities Trust - Trust the Holy Spirit Preached by Jaren Singh on 8/22/21

Send us Fan Mail Influence follows Spirituality – not only in the church, but also in the world. The more influence we have, the more impact our faith can have on the world. Winning influence is not some gimmick in order to make your life easier - it opens doors for God to work through people to impact and attract others to Him Preached by Jaren Singh on 8/15/21

Send us Fan Mail The life of a Christian ought to be characterized more by constancy of one’s faith than by random acts of faithfulness. So often our eyes turn to and gauge spirituality by singular Acts. So much built into the life of a Christian is based on day to day actions that communicate faithfulness.  Prepare Preach Persuade Preached by Jaren Singh on 8/8/21

Send us Fan Mail Preached by Joseph Le on 8/1/21

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes living out Christianity is exciting and full of success and joy. Other times it is difficult and provides us with more questions than answers. Join us as we look at the example of Paul as he begins his trek to Jerusalem Preached by Devin Cook on 7/25/21

Send us Fan Mail The city of Kalamazoo – the economy, the media, and the entertainment should feel the weight of true Christianity. This starts in the spheres that we’re in and spreads throughout the city.  This was true for the people in that time and it should be true for us as well. Preached by Jaren Singh on 7/18/21

Send us Fan Mail The reality of the world we live in is that it is constantly trying to frame issues in an effort to divide.
