The Unity of the Faith

Bible Text: Ephesians 4:11-16 | Preacher: Reed Jolley | Series: One Body: Living Into the Unity the Gospel Provides

What does it look like to grow up? Adulting has become a sort of buzz word today. People often use it to describe the responsibilities one faces when becoming an adulthood. But what is it like to adult as a Christian? Most often we view maturity as a form of independence. But what if growing up means not independence, but interdependence? What if responsibility actually looks like existing in, receiving from, and giving to a community? This week we learn about a key distinctive of Christian maturity—unity.

Live as Citizens

Bible Text: Philippians 1:27–2:2 | Preacher: Kyle Wells | Series: One Body: Living Into the Unity the Gospel Provides

Who gets the final word on defining a person? We often go through life looking for someone or some group to tell us who we are. Often, we attempt to define ourselves and others by our success, our hobbies, our politics, or our market value. We look for a tribe to give us meaning and significance. But God says that he is our maker. Since we belong to him, he gets the final word on everything about us. This Sunday we continue our sermon series on the unity of the Christian Church.

The Unity of God’s People

Bible Text: Ephesians 2:11-22 | Preacher: Reed Jolley | Series: One Body: Living Into the Unity the Gospel Provides

Social researchers tell us loneliness is on the rise and it has devastating impacts. Our families, neighborhoods, and work places are fractured—and that’s all before we entered a global pandemic that forced us to stay at home. Does the Christian church have a role to play in bringing disparate people together? This Sunday we study the uncommon family that is the Church of Christ.

That They May be One

Bible Text: John 17:20–24 | Preacher: Kyle Wells | Series: One Body: Living Into the Unity the Gospel Provides

It’s no secret that our country is divided in many ways. Civil strife and discord are in the news almost daily. We might expect a nation as vast and diverse as the United States to hold many world views and perspectives in tension. What may be surprising, though, is that many people experience the Christian Church as no different. Critics point to the various divisions as reasons for disbelief. Yet, Jesus is not surprised. In fact, Christian unity is the very thing he prayed for on the night before he went to the cross. This week we begin a series on the Christian practice of the communion of the saints.

Confident Faith

Bible Text: Habbakuk 3:16–19 | Preacher: Kyle Wells | Series: Habakkuk: Living by Faith in Turbulent Times

Faith comes more easily in the good times when things are going our way; joy comes more naturally in the times of feasting. But what do we do in the times of famine and difficulty? How can we find joy when life is full of suffering and pain? This week we finish our sermon series on the Prophet Habakkuk.

Awestruck Faith

In a season shaped by catastrophic events like wildfires, hurricanes, and COVID-19, the trials of life can seem overwhelming. Is God big enough and strong enough to overcome anything? This Sunday we get a proper perspective of God from our sermon series on the Prophet Habakkuk.
