New Year's Eve Service, 2013 Church Theme, Next Year's Bible Reading Plan (Pastoral Emphasis for 12/30)

Our Haiti Missionary Team is collecting items to take with them to Haiti next month and you can help. Pick up a flyer at the Welcome Center for a list of the items needed. They will be accepting donations until 1/13.

Just a reminder that there is no Prayer & Testimony Service or Bible Study (Wednesday evening or Thursday morning) this week. Everything resumes the week of January 7th.

Everyone is invited to attend our New Year's Eve Service at 10:00pm on Monday, December 31st. We will have brief remembrance of our members who passed away this year.

Our church theme for 2013 will be "Multiply: Making Disciples who make Disciples".

A disciple means being a student or learner. So if we are going to be disciples who make other disciples we must know God’s Word. So as a church we will be reading through the Bible again next year. This time we will follow the chronological Bible reading plan. We will read the Bible in the order in which the recorded events took place. This is a great way to understand the historical context and how biblical history unfolded. We will start on January 1st. You can go to YouVersion.com or use the Bible app on your Smartphone or tablet to follow along with us.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

My Hope Sunday, M:T Not a Competition, Prayer Gathering (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday ! We had several invited guests, and my message was from 1 Samuel 8:4-9 on "Looking for a Savior".  Israel wanted a king like the other nations who would “save” them. This is the very definition of a functional savior. A functional savior is anything or anyone a person looks to for ultimate hope, security, identity, or fulfillment in place of God. Whatever you look to to “save” you from your problems, fears, or insecurities is your functional savior. But all of our functional saviors cannot save us. Jesus is the Savior we really need!  Our greatest need in this life and the life to come is to have our sins forgiven by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Today, my wife shared her My Hope Testimony .   (RSS Subscribers: click here to watch the video) Missions:Together’s "Not a Competition" is a powerful missions gathering designed to re-ignite your passion for missions on Saturday, November 2, hosted at The Summit Church in Apex.
