Pantano Christian Church

In a world that is not black and white, the church and culture have become even more separated. How do we go from racism to unity?

Happy Mother's Day! Thank you to all the mothers out there and God bless you!

Two mentalities; hyper-past and hyper-future. Which one are you?

Has God called you to take any big risks lately? God is looking for humility and availability. Sustained life change happens in community.

Don’t downplay how God created you to please and serve others. There’s no such thing as a second-class calling.

I believe my story matters. You’re never too messed up to matter.

Who am I? Why am I here? No matter how old you are or what stage in life you’re in, those two questions can play a significant role in life. Try to understand the complex and unique design God has put on your life. Your story, your life matters. Isaiah 43:1 says God has summoned you by name. But sometimes we feel like we are too messed up to matter. But the truth is, it’s okay not to be okay. Psal...

This Easter, we're learning how Jesus brings calm to our crazy lives. Even when things get super messy, like they did when Jesus was on Earth, He tells us, "It is finished." That means He's made everything okay again. We get to start fresh, find peace, and help others feel better too. Let's find out together how Jesus beating death helps us beat our own messes and make the world a brighter place.

How do we make Jesus fit our political views? Remind people to see their politics through the lens of Jesus, not Jesus through the lens of my politics. Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s. Jesus said, "I am the Messiah." He Gets us…Jesus was fed up with Politics too.

We like Jesus as our buddy because He will go along with anything. But this is not the Jesus we know from the scriptures. We don’t like the Jesus that will hold us to what we need to hear and do. He is our Redeemer, our Rock, and our Ruler. He didn't come to earth to be cool, He came to save us.

Jesus is here to judge and condemn me, is the thought of most of us. Yet, Jesus said Himself that He did not come to judge…but to seek and save those that are lost. We as Christians want to be like Jesus who says He did not come to judge. However, we like to take on the role as judge in the lives of others. Luke 19:10 tells us, "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Does our forgi...

We’ve rebranded Jesus in our image to meet our needs. Just give me what I want; if I give enough money, and pray enough then I will be happy. I can have a convenient/hurried faith and still be okay. Burger King Jesus - we want Him the way we want Him. We want Him as long as He fits our narrative. Jesus judges others the way I judge others…We’ve created Jesus in our own image. As long as you’re lik...

It is one thing to walk into church or faith, but without people actually hearing the truth and being taught the truth, they will find themselves frustrated and lost in their faith. We are actually commissioned to preach and teach, and we respond to the Holy Spirit's prompting, we can be Jesus, show Jesus and direct people to Jesus.

We, all Christians, not just church leaders should engage actively in disciple-making, highlighting the unchanging nature of Jesus' message of salvation despite societal shifts. The narrative also reflects on adapting to new technologies and cultural changes, urging an understanding of the current times for effective ministry, inspired by the biblical example of the men of Issachar.

GO and reach. Where and how do we go? The word GO means “as we are going.” When you GO God will SHOW. He will show you who and how.

In this week's insightful message, we turn our focus to a topic often overlooked in church communities - singleness. It's a call to both singles and married individuals to understand and appreciate the unique value and challenges of being single in a faith-based context.

Relationships are important. Connecting with others is part of why God created us. He built a desire for community within our souls. Friendships are also important. Like all relationships, they take time, trust and work. It won’t all be good or bad but in the end it’s worth it. God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the first example we have of friendship and community. We will explore how the Trinity...

Dive into an honest and transformative discussion about the role of sex in Christian marriage. In this message, we confront the misconceptions and silence surrounding the topic of sex in church settings, offering a refreshing and necessary perspective for couples today.

Marriage has its challenges and successes. When we prioritize humility and our spouse's needs we find the challenge. We also find a war between unrealistic expectations and being selfless Christ-like people. John 13:34 says it all: love each other, just as I have loved you. Seek the One with your two. Marriage can be easy but it takes hard work.

Luke 2, focus on the announcement of Christ’s birth from God’s heavenly host, the army of angels who have been battling the powers of darkness all along, and because of his birth so many years ago, we have hope! Back to Revelation 12:17 , after Jesus defeated Satan, the dragon went off to “make war against the rest of her offspring”—those who obey God’s commandments. That’s us! What difference wil...

Isaiah 9:2; the 400 “silent years” between the OT and NT when Alexander the Great was wreaking havoc; John 1:1-5; A well-worn adage from the 1600s declares that it’s always the darkest just before the dawn. Christmas is a celebration of light: Lights are strung everywhere both indoors and out. If you’ve ever wondered why, it’s because Jesus, the light of the world, pierced the darkness of our worl...

Genesis 3, Genesis 3:15 is the first announcement of the Gospel message, the prediction of Christ’s victory over Satan; Garden of Eden and Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus vs. Satan all throughout his ministry, temptations of Christ; Open with the clip from Passion of the Christ where Christ crushes the serpent in the Garden of Gethsemane— throwback to Genesis 3:15; conclude with 1 John 3:8, the Son of...

We are constantly worshiping. Our lives are filled with worship…where we focus our worship is up to us. Will we choose the temporary gods of our culture or the Eternal God whose very presence can transform us for eternity?

Chasing external factors like money, a career, appearance, and relationships will only lead to emptiness. Fulfillment can only be found in Jesus Christ. Contentment isn’t found in the absence of problems, but in the presence of God.

The Point of Our INVITE isn’t to Create Converts…it’s to Create a Confidence that they BELONG.
