This week, for our final week of Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, we will dive into Chapter 10, "Go the Next Step to Develop a 'Rule of Life.'" As Peter Scazzero explains, "A Rule of Life, very simply, is an intentional, conscious plan to keep God at the center of everything we do. It provides guidelines to help us continually remember God as the Source of our lives." Join us this Sunday as Steve...

Do you ever find yourself tired, frustrated, angry, or stressed by the people around you? Why do these words so clearly describe many of our daily lives? It's time to move beyond the emotional "terrible twos" and discover what maturing emotionally can offer in relief. This week, we will be looking into Chapter 9 of EHS, Growing into an Emotionally Mature Adult. Scott Crawford will be speaking and...

For our spiritual lives to be emotionally healthy, it is imperative that we recognize our limitations and create practices and steps that cause us to slow down, see and experience God, and make our primary activity in life focus on knowing and being loved by God. Our primary energies everyday must focus on us being with and being shaped by Jesus. This Sunday, we will look at our next chapter in th...

Have you ever experienced loss or suffering? Everyone in one degree or another has, and how we grieve in these moments either leads us to frustration or life. This Sunday, we will take our next step in our study, Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, as we focus on God's movement in our moments of loss and suffering and how he uses these moments to shape us into our Real Life.

Life is a journey. It has many ups and downs and twists and turns, and when we come up against difficulties on our journey, walls that smack us in the face, we have a choice. We either journey through the wall or pull back! Do you know your walls? Are you experiencing the fruit of a wall...a life that feels stuck, like a roller coaster, numb or perpetually frustrated? This Sunday, we will take our...

Pete Scazzero said, "Jesus is in your heart, but grandpa is in your bones." This is another way of saying that Jesus transforms us when we become Christians, but we have life experiences to work through. Join us this week as we continue looking at Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, specifically looking at how God wants to use and redeem our past experiences, families of origin, and cultural upbring...

On Sunday, using King David as our model, we will take a look at the foundation of our Emotionally Healthy Spirituality study, as we focus on a life marked by the marriage of intentionally slowing down to be with Jesus (The Contemplative Life) and an awareness of one's own growth areas and how well we love our neighbors (Emotional Health). As we integrate these two, it raises us above the influenc...

This Sunday, we are looking at chapter 4 in Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, "Know Yourself That You May Know God." We recognize that God always desires to bring transformation in our lives, and to make that happen, He is always highlighting growth areas in our lives. We have to know what those areas are so we can work with him to mature and grow and be transformed. We must know ourselves and our...

This Sunday, we will look at the life of Saul in 1 Samuel 15. Saul appears to be serving God by praying, listening to prophetic words, going to church, and doing some of God's will, but below the surface, he is motivated by his desire for others' approval. Oftentimes, we live one way above the surface and in appearances when there is actually a whole other reality underneath. Join us this Sunday a...

Sunday marks our official launch into small groups for the fall. Small groups are a vital part of our DNA at Vintage as we believe we are better as a church when people are intentionally in relationships with one another, spurring each other on to greater spiritual growth. We believe in these small groups each of us has a role to play in the lives of others. Therefore, on Sunday, we will look at G...

Contemplative spirituality? What the heck is that, and how might it impact my life? This Sunday, we'll examine what contemplative spirituality actually is, as we continue to prepare for our fall study, Emotionally Healthy Spirituality. We truly believe contemplative spirituality is essential for us to move toward the abundant life Jesus has for us.

The power of gravity means that everything on earth is drawn towards the center of the earth. What if we lived with a center of gravity focused on Jesus? On Sunday, we will look at the life of Daniel and how his life, in the midst of great hardship, expressed this reality of God centeredness in all things!

This Sunday, we are excited to celebrate our life together as a family at Vintage 242! Looking at Nehemiah 4, we will talk about God's call upon Vintage and the role that we have received from Him in serving the body of Christ. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

On Sunday, Steve will be looking at tangible ways God expresses His kingdom through His people. Our hope is to begin awakening to the possibilities that define those who know Jesus and are filled with His Holy Spirit. We will also be celebrating the baptisms of several of our youth.

On Sunday, we will continue our journey through 1 Corinthians as we examine Paul's exhortation to believers in 1 Corinthians 15:1-10 where he reminds us of the gospel of grace and the effects of The Kingdom in our lives. We will also hear stories of Jesus' goodness and kindness from our kids who attended Kidventure this week!

"Let all things be done for building up." Paul makes this statement at the end of a long discussion about the movement of gifts within the church as a clear and succinct way to sum up the heart of his message. He is challenging the motivation behind their actions, and it becomes a simple thought they can use to test everything they do! On Sunday, as we read over 1 Corinthians 14:26-33, we will foc...

This Sunday, Timothy and our youth will be sharing testimonies from OneCamp. We are excited to hear their stories of God's goodness and faithfulness and encourage you to join us!

This Sunday: A Morning Full of Jesus in Worship, Teaching and Prayer! We believe God is doing something powerful in our body and in our community. This Sunday we will seek Him with expectation for His movement. We will take a look at Jesus' words in John 21:1-11.

This Sunday, we will continue our conversation on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, diving into 1 Corinthians 14. Our focus will be on the gifts of tongues and prophecy, their role in the church today, and how it applies to us.

Starting this Sunday we will begin, as one family meeting at 10am, a several week look at 1 Corinthians 12-14 and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. We have laid a very clear foundation over the past month, a foundation that will allow the gifts to flow without hindrance if we embrace it. This Sunday, we will define the gifts, what they are, and what God hoped to accomplish through them! If we truly wa...

This Sunday, we will build our last foundational step before diving into the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in earnest as we look at Paul's message in 1 Corinthians 13. For Paul, this last step is the thing that makes or breaks our effectiveness in using the gifts, and if we don't embrace it, it will keep the church from effectively ministering in the power of God's Spirit!

In 1 Corinthians 12, we have seen Paul encouarging the Corinthian church to live a life of spirit-empowered giftedness for the common good. We have seen Paul say that everyone has something to contribute and that all contributions are valuable. But what is his overall goal in pointing all of these things out? What is he getting at? Join us this Sunday as we look at the motivation and goal of Paul'...
