Happy Mother's Day, ImageBearers Men's Group, Men's Conference (Pastoral Emphasis for 5/12)

Happy Mother's Day! Proverbs 31:28 says "Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her".  We honored all of the moms today at church.  But we also remember and pray for those who have lost their moms, those who lost children, those who desire to be moms but it hasn't happened, and those who have a strained relationship with their mothers.

Thanks to all who attended yesterday's Theological Seminar. If you missed it, I would encourage you to watch the recording. It will change your perspective on work even working at a job that you might hate.

All men are invited to the first fellowship of the new ImageBearers Men’s Group on May 18th at 8am in the MPR. Food and drinks will be provided. See Minister Jae Smith to reserve your spot.

Men, register for the upcoming Men’s Conference on June 7-8. The conference will include praise & worship, panelists, and sessions on "Working for HIM at Work", "Servant Leadership at Home", and "Living Out the Call". Registration is $35 which includes conference materials and meals.

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.
