Humbly Serve

Jesus challenged His followers to serve others not from a position of pride or even personal power, but from a position of humility.
Jesus set the example when He came as the God-man, choosing to take on the form of man, humbling Himself even to the point of death of His life so that He could provide for others.
Join us this coming Sunday as we center our focus upon serving others. For onsite service, we will hear from a ministry we support, named Omaha Street School where they seek to minister to students in need of an education in a safe and supportive environment. Online, we will direct our attention to the teaching of Jesus as He challenges His followers to humbly serve others.

Know the Enemy

A key to success in the sports world is to know your opponent. If you have no idea of what offensive plays they use and defenses they present, you enter the fray at a tremendous disadvantage.
The same is true for those seeking to follow Jesus. When Eve and Adam encountered the serpent in Genesis 3, they were naïve to his plan and quickly fell prey to his seductive words. It is wise to know now the enemy of our faith functions.
Join us this coming Sunday as we delve into Genesis 3 vv1-7, as we discover that the approach leveled at Eve and Adam is repeated throughout the biblical text. Gain insights into how the adversary operates.

The Nature & Necessity of Marriage

Successful marriages follow three basic steps. Those steps are found in Genesis 2: leave, cleave, and become one.
You leave your life of singleness behind, directing your attention away from yourself to your mate. You cleave to one another as you make the relationship central. Finally, you enter the life-long process of becoming one. The process will require mutual commitment and a willingness to sacrifice for the other.
The process of becoming one continues as long as you are together.
We want to invite you to join us this Sunday, as we look at Genesis 2:24-25, discovering both the nature and necessity of marriage.

Finding a Completer

God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone” (Genesis 2:18 – ESV).
A mate was needed. Someone to be a companion and completer. Solomon wisely stated that “two are better than one” (Ecclesiastes 4:9).
Where one is weak, another is strong. When you find a completer, you find someone with differing strengths and weaknesses than you, so when combined together you have a become a more complete whole.
We want to invite you to join us this Sunday, as we look at Genesis 2:18-23, discovering the importance of finding a completer.

Entering Into God’s Rest

Rest: we know we need it but rarely get it. We long for a good night’s rest, but the demands of life rob us of the ability to get the rest we so desperately need.
