Sinners
Paul completes his case against humanity and delivers the verdict. How do we respond to this? How does this change our lives?
Judgment and Law
God’s plan gets another chapter as we learn that there are no favorites before the throne. Let’s work out how this helps us in the here and now.
Child of God
You may have heard that God has made us his children but that might mean something different than we think it means. Let’s talk about our misconceptions and how to go from head to heart with this incredible truth! See you Sunday!
Easter Sunday: When what we believe changes us
It’s easy to fall back into normal life even if we believe something crazy like a man rose from the dead. What is our potential and what can we do to stretch towards it?
Recognize the Cycle – 2nd Peter 2:10-22
Peter continues his charge against the greedy, immoral influencers of the day calling out the repetitive nature of their sin. As we consider our lives in light of eternity, what can we learn from this warning? Where can we find help to get out of the cycle? Let’s talk about it Sunday. See you there!
Eternity – 2 Peter 1:1-12
We’ll be taking the next 6 weeks and working through Peter’s last letter. He has some strong teaching for the church, urging them to keep growing, directly addressing three problems that they’re having, and setting them up to continue on towards eternity.
The World From Rochester
As we celebrate what God has done in bringing us to our new building, we continue in a faith that has been carried by those before us and we pass it on to those who will follow.
David: Dance
We can learn a lot from David’s example, good and bad, as he moves God’s Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. Don’t worry- we’re not going to make you dance.
David: Begin Again
David pulls through another tough season of life and has a chance to start over in some ways. Let’s take a look at what he might have been thinking in Psalm 101 and how it can help us as we begin another new year.
