2025 Church Theme, Testimony, NYE Service (Pastoral Emphasis for 12/29)

2025 Church Theme: "On Mission"

 

As we prepare to step into a new year, our church family is excited to embrace the 2025 theme: “On Mission.” This powerful theme calls us to align every aspect of our lives with God's purposes, particularly the call to share the gospel and demonstrate His love to others. Being "on mission" is more than a phrase—it's a way of life. It challenges us to see the everyday moments of our lives—our work, relationships, community involvement, and daily activities—as divine opportunities to reflect Christ and advance His Kingdom. This year, we’ll journey together to deepen our understanding of what it means to live "on mission" and, most importantly, to put it into practice. 

As we go through 2025, expect opportunities to grow spiritually, engage in outreach, and see God move in transformative ways. Let’s commit together to live with intentionality, seeing every interaction as an opportunity to demonstrate Christ’s love and truth. 

 

Testimony

Sis. Brittany Nicole Jones, daughter of Elder Adrian and Deaconess Barbara Jones, shared her testimony today about how God used someone breaking into her car to start her journey towards rest and healing in God's church.

  • Testimonies: Hear stories of God’s faithfulness. 
  • Praise and Worship: Lift your voice in thanksgiving as we honor God for all He’s done and trust Him for what’s ahead.

As we prepare for this night of reflection, celebration, and renewal, let’s look forward to stepping boldly into our mission as a church. We can’t wait to see you there! 

Let’s start the year “on mission”—seeking God’s purpose, sharing His love, and making an eternal impact. Together, we’ll make 2025 a year of Kingdom advancement.

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.
