Vintage 242

Sunday marks the beginning of Advent, a season dedicated to slowing down and reflecting on the significance of Jesus' arrival. This week, we will center our attention on the theme of Hope and its enduring presence in our lives today.

Sunday, we have a big announcement we cannot wait to share with the church! It will excite you!! For the message, we will take time and unpack some stories from Jamar’s $2 bill challenge from Acts 4. It is going to be a fun and inspiring morning that you do not want to miss!!

On Sunday we end our Acts series by looking at the life of Stephen. We know his story and we celebrate his life, but what was his message, who was he talking to, why was he killed, and what does it mean for us today? My hope is to use Stephen as a model that speaks to the brokenness of the church today and leave you with a sobering BUT empowering reality of calling in YOUR life!!

Sunday marks a shift in Acts as Luke turns his attention to different influences in the early church, non-apostles, who do extraordinary things for the church. This week and next, we will focus on Stephen, his role in the church, and how the early church dealt with tension inside the family of God.

On Sunday Steve Hambrick stepped into Acts 5, one of the most difficult stories in all of the New Testament but also one of the most sobering. It is a story of sin infiltrating the early church, God's response, and the holy fear that spread among everyone who heard about it. It is an important but difficult message that each of us needs to wrestle with!

On Sunday, Jamar Brown-King joined us and he drew from Acts 4 to highlight the pillars of a thriving church community: giving without expecting in return, sharing our faith, and being selfless examples. What would it look like if we embrace these principles, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where people find belonging and hope?

On Sunday, Jeremy Morris will joined us as we delved deeper into our study of the early church in the book of Acts. We specifically explored Chapter 4, focusing on the account where Peter and John are summoned before the Sanhedrin. Faced with a choice between an easy or a difficult response, they chose the path of truth, a testament to their intimate connection with Jesus. These ordinary men demon...

On Sunday we turned our attention to Acts 3. We focused on the first major miracle performed by the apostles post-baptism of the Holy Spirit, how it functioned as a sign pointing to Jesus, and discussed what it means for us today.

We turn our attention to Luke’s description of the church family in Acts 2:42-47. Steve talks about their specific expression of family, how it would have been received in the Greco-Roman world, and what it means for us today.

On Sunday we turned to the beginning of the church in Acts chapter 1, the expectations of Jesus for his followers, and the keys to spiritual breakthrough that set the tone for kingdom expansion in the early movement. Combined, they speak to the necessary heart posture that led to activation in the church both yesterday and today.

This Sunday, we took our first step into Acts 1-7, the focus of our fall small group campaign. We covered primary themes and ideas that we will look more deeply into in weeks to come with a simple prayer leading our whole time…God activate the church today in the same way you activated the church in Acts!

This is the start of our fall study on the book of Acts. We will take the next two weeks to lay a foundation of what it is about, why it is important, and how it applies to us today. We begin by looking at chapters 8-28 and focus on chapters 1-7 next week. Starting this week, you will quickly see how your own story connects with the story of the early church!

In the first week of our study on the Mind of Christ, we talked about our need to focus on truth because the primary tool of the enemy is to feed us lies to pollute our minds. Truth, we said, always dispels lies. This Sunday, Steve Hambrick looks at several biblical truths, that when focused on and believed, will help us live with the mind and mindset of Jesus!

Steve Hambrick continues our conversation on the Mind of Christ, this time looking at Philippians 2. In it, we will see a unique picture of exactly what the Mind of Christ looked like in Jesus’ life and talk about what that means for us. Hint…how Jesus lived is possible for us today!!

On Sunday we gathered to listen to Tammy Ma's powerful teaching on cultivating a life of radical prayer. Through her inspiring stories from her time in India, she shed light on how God has used Contending Prayer to shape her spiritual journey. Don't miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of prayer and its transformative impact on our lives.

We continue our conversation around being a people who have the mind of Christ. We will look at 1 Corinthians 2 as we unpack Paul's comparison of the wisdom of the world vs. the wisdom of Christ, and how having the mind of Christ empowers us to see the world through a kingdom lens!

On Sunday we began a conversation around Paul’s words where he says, “You have been given the mind of Christ.” This a big statement with important ramifications for our spiritual life. We will define what that means, how it impacts our life, and what keeps us from it.

Today, we have important news to share that affects all of Vintage. Afterward, Steve will then turn to Ephesians 4 and look at the call from Paul to pursue unity, love one another, give our lives in service to the church family and use our gifts to build up the body. Each of us has a role to play, and our plan for Sunday is to talk about it and ask God to show us what he has in store for us!

We are excited to welcome back our students from a powerful and crazy week at OneCamp! God moved in remarkable ways and we get to hear all about it! Be inspired, encouraged, and challenged as you listen to testimonies of God's goodness.

Is there a proper amount of zeal that we are allowed to have for God? This week Mike Farley helps us look at Hebrews 11 and see what we can learn from the heroes of the faith.

Happy Father's Day! Jeremy Morris guides us through Psalm 23 and shares how dads need to have a shepherd's heart like our good Father. He also reminds each of us that we need to shepherd the next generation of believers.

Do you ever feel like you have no idea what to do? Maybe life is crazy and there are things coming at you from every direction. This week Mike Farley looks at Micah 6:8 and sees some practical steps we can always take to follow God's leading.

Today we end our conversation on Kingdom Empowerment. Steve Hambrick looks at the practical steps we take to see God’s power awakened in us to bring life change everywhere we go!

Steve Hambrick takes a look at Galatians 5, focusing on Paul’s words “So I say walk in the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of your sinful nature.” This idea of “walking in the Spirit” is a game changer for us on every level. It speaks to living a Spirit-empowered life, the obstacles that keep us from experiencing His fullness, and shows us what is possible when we live surrendered ever...
