The Connection Church

We are nearing the end of our examination of John’s first letter in our expository sermon series, Letters to Humanity. Join us as we explore both the demonstration and assumption of the love of God.

We continue our exploration of the fourth chapter of the apostle John’s first letter. Let us discover (or rediscover) together our journey toward the wonderful, love-filled life God has always intended for us.

Dive with us into the fourth chapter of John’s first epistle in the Bible, a set of verses that reveal what God thinks about humanity, as well as how each of us humans should think about humanity. These God-inspired words (that the apostle wrote so many years ago) inspired the title of this sermon series, and they can and should inspire us today toward the wonderful, love-filled life God has alway...

We continue our current sermon series, Letters to Humanity, on the pastoral letters of the apostle John. And yes, we’ll talk some more about love 🙄 (no, we can’t hear about it enough) 😊 Love is the process and the journey of our walk of faith in Christ. We can always (and probably should want to) learn more about the objective reality of love and how it’s revealed in our lives. Let’s discover to...

“Love is the essence of God and His kingdom.” We have said that every Sunday during our current sermon series, Letters to Humanity, on the pastoral letters of the apostle John. Join us as we continue our careful path exploring the themes, principles, and message of the words that John wrote and that God inspired.

John finishes the second chapter of his first letter continuing to stress the importance of abiding in God. He then segues into the next chapter, outlining the destiny of our relationship with God. In verse 3, John writes “and everyone who had this hope in Him…” Ultimately, our hope is not in heaven or in our own glory in heaven. Our hope is in Him! We must never set our hope on other things; not...

This Sunday, we continue our current sermon series exploring the letters of John as he writes about the antichrist attack on the good faith and beliefs of the church. We will learn what this assault on the early church means for us today.

This Sunday, we will continue our expository sermon series of the epistles of John, Letters to Humanity, by covering two sets of three verses found in the second chapter of 1 John. In the first set, he addresses his readers according to their measure of spiritual maturity. In the second, he reveals the primary attack on our relationship with God. The truths found in all six verses can help us matu...

For the past two Sundays, we have begun exploring the three letters of John found in the Bible. In the introduction, we set the tone for this sermon series, glimpsing at the importance of humanity and the apostle’s love and care for the churches and people to whom he wrote. Last Sunday, we discussed the truly import things in life. And this Sunday, we will see John doing a bit of “house cleaning”...

Most people understand that the important things in life are not things at all. Our relationships with others hold the most value. That connectivity with others is a God-given desire, which of course, He intended to be with our fellow human beings—but most of all, with Him.

Join us as we begin a new sermon series exploring the letters that John the Apostle wrote with much love to the churches and people for whom he cared so much. Let’s discover together what pastoral thoughts and urgings he had for his recipients then and what God wants to say to us today through them.

Join us for an encouraging and strengthening message from our long-time friend and guest speaker, Mark Shell.

Pastor Karrianne shares a special Mother’s Day message that will not only impact those who are mothers but all who long to know that our God is a God who sees, knows, and cares for each of us.

Pastor TJ shares the final part our sermon series of Ephesians, in which the apostle Paul brings all that he has written in his letter to a concluding urge for the churches of Ephesus to remain steadfast in God—and in which we can find God encouraging us to Be Strong no matter what challenges we face today!

We continue our joint worship services with Freedom Fellowship, as Pastor Horace Vinson continues with a message from the fifth chapter of Ephesians…

Pastor TJ continues our exploration of Ephesians, as we survey the fourth chapter, in which we’ll find four ways “to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called.”

We continue our joint worship services with Freedom Fellowship, as Pastor Horace Vinson continues with a message from the third chapter of Ephesians…

Pastor TJ continues our exploration of Ephesians that Pastor Horace began last Sunday. Get excited as we hear about the reconciling power that Christ completed on the cross and in the resurrection. Be refreshed in the unity, peace, and family that Christ provides for us today.

Join us for this first part of a sermon series as we survey Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. For the next six weeks, we will explore the themes that the apostle wrote in order to build up the Body of Christ, the Church. What makes this series all the more poignant and wonderful is that we are embarking on this journey in the midst of joint worship services with our friends at Freedom Fellowship Chu...

Join us for the conclusion to our Songs of Ascent sermon series. Pastor TJ will share what we can glean and grow from the psalmists about the joy of going to the house of the Lord, as well as laboring and prospering with the Lord.

This Sunday, we begin a two part series, Songs of Ascent. The Songs of Ascent are a series of 15 psalms (Psalms 120-134). The reason for this collection and arrangement is not precisely stated in the Bible; however, many different explanations have been given for these “degrees” or “steps” or “ascents.” Most theologians propose that these were songs for God’s people on their pilgrim journey to the...

Last week, we began a new sermon series. In that first part, we covered the first two strategies for winning every day: we must always recognize the right king, and never give in to the taunts of the enemy. This Sunday, Pastor TJ shares the final two strategies that the Lord revealed to him to help you be victorious!

This Sunday we begin sharing four strategies for everyday living. These strategies will help us to be victorious in every battle we face and have peace in our everyday decision making. The challenges of life don’t have to rule our lives!

This time, we focus on God’s design for marriage and the marriage relationship. We know that applying biblical principles will give us a stronger foundation in marriage relationships. At the same time, God never designed marriage to give us perfect happiness or a conflict-free relationship. Leaving, cleaving, and becoming one is part of God’s creative work in making two distinct persons into one....

Over the last two weeks, we focused on Cultivating Relationships inside and outside the church. This Sunday, we focus on what the Bible says about being single and being unmarried. Too often there seems to be an unfortunate societal mindset that views singlehood as something negative that needs to be fixed, even though many people are single by choice. Those of us who are married might need to cha...
