Transforming Ordinary People into Extraordinary Followers of Christ

This week, we conclude our series examining God’s blueprint for marriage found in Genesis 2:24-25 with the Promise of Purity. Husbands and wives promise each other, “I commit to loving you with the purity of Jesus Christ.” The principle is simple: (1) Wherever sin lives, intimacy dies. (2) Wherever purity lives, intimacy grows! Hear why trust, selflessness, and fidelity are foundational to an intimate, flourishing marriage.
To live out God’s design for the home, husbands and wives need to promise each other, “You are my covenant partner in Christ.” Explore the Biblical role of husbands and wives which create a flourishing, harmonious partnership.
In this series examining God’s blueprint for marriage found in Genesis 2:24-25, we started with the Promise of Priority. This week, we dig into the Promise of Pursuit which declares to our spouse: “I will pursue you always.” Just because we are married does not mean that the pursuit is off. It has just begun! Let’s find out what this pursuit looks like.
This week we examine God’s blueprint for marriage as outlined in Genesis 2:24-25, where we discover the promise of priority.
In marriage, God sees a couple as one unit. When a couple says, “I do,” God super-glues them together in a lifelong union. So our first promise that we need to reaffirm to our spouse is, “Next to Jesus Christ, you are my top priority.”
By examining a portion of the resurrection of Jesus found in Luke 24, we discover three powerful truths about the resurrection of Jesus. We see that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is a paradigm-shattering historical event, is the key to understanding the message of the entire Bible and is the strongest message of hope for the world possible.
Easter’s Call offers us all the resources we need to build our lives. It reveals that if we really want to know Jesus, we must worship him as our King. By examining Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem on what has come to be known as Palm Sunday, we understand that Jesus showed himself as King. What does that mean for us?
Easter’s Call offers us all the resources we need to build our lives. It provides us with instructions for our mission to serve others. We see that when Jesus calls us to himself, our mission is to go into the world to serve others.
This week we take a look at the resources to equip us with strategies to live pure lives. We’ll examine Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness and see that God’s Word functions in a very practical way to help us handle life’s trials, difficulties, and temptations. We will look at the depth and complexity of evil, Satan’s evil strategies, and how we can defeat these strategies with Scripture.
In the last chapter of the book of Jonah, we meet the pouting prophet. When God paints the portrait of an individual, he paints him warts and all. We see not only Jonah’s successes but also his shortcomings, not only his fruit but also his failure.
