Our current sermon series is called Christmas for Misfits. Many people think that before they can come to church and follow Jesus, they must first get their life in order. But Jesus never says that. In fact, he says just the opposite. Jesus says he came for the sick, the broken, the imperfect people. Jesus came for you and me, the Misfits. Jesus was rejected so we could be accepted. Enjoy this week’s sermon!

Pastor Adrian concludes our study on the book of Isaiah. Using Luke 4 where Jesus reads from the scroll of Isaiah Pastor Adrian poses an important question to the people of God, especially the Church in America, Is Jesus welcomed here? We see that even in his hometown Jesus was not welcomed because his intention has always been to build a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural church that is built of every nation and people group. So we will have to decide if we will be like Jesus' hometown and not welcome Him because of His desire for diversity, or will we go against the grain of our current cultural climate and partner with Jesus to build His diverse Church.

As we continue our study of Isaiah, we explore Isaiah 50 today. When we go through life, whatever path we take is typically led by something. What we allow to be our torch along the path of life is led by either fear or faith. Do we let ourselves light our path out of fear, or do we let God be the torch on our path through faith? |
Sun, 30 July 2017

Life is a constant state of tension between dreams and nightmares. What is important is we never lose faith and understand we serve an unshakable kingdom. We need to lament during our nightmares so we can process and know where we stand, because God already knows. We need to understand our faith is not in a man, but our faith and salvation is through Jesus Christ alone. |
Sun, 16 July 2017

The nation of Israel began with a promise from God to Abram. Though they wandered and broke the covenant, God's promise remained. Even in judgement, God did not quit on his people. In their most dire of circumstances, Israel had the hope of God's word. This same hope is extended to us through Jesus, who never quits on us. |

What do all gravestones have in common? A beginning and end date; the date you were born and the date you left this earth. What's significant and yet overlooked many times is the dash between these two dates. This dash represents joy, heartache, peace, trials, triumphs, victories, love, loss, and more. In today's sermon Pastor Adrian brings to our attention a few questions like "Is Jesus everything in your life?", "Do you proclaim the goodness of Jesus?", "What kingdom are you building for God?". And reminds us to long for something greater than just this moment by leaving a legacy of faith. |

What's significant and yet overlooked many times is the dash between these two dates. This dash represents joy, heartache, peace, trials, triumphs, victories, love, loss, and more.

In our case, this is the relentless pursuit of the Mission Jesus has laid out before us. |

Are you comfortable in life? Perhaps a little too comfortable? The push and pull of everyday living, along with cultural influences and conveniences often lull us into a state of complacency. We become comfortable in our ways and ignore our call to live outside of ourself to impact the lives of others and to be a force in delivering them to the Kingdom of God.

Because of God's amazing grace and Him making us righteous, we can now be inspired to make war against our sin. |
