In this second message on the essential elements for growth, Pastor John talks about how ministry within a small group breaks down the barriers that get in the way of growth.

Who are you? Pastor Ken shares how you can discover who your really are in this ever changing world by remembering who God created you to be. Instead of trying to find yourself in you own “I”dentity we are to find ourselves in the “We” which is in fellowship with the trinity and God’s people who reflect His image.

This week’s message is from Luke Chapter 18. Pastor Ken teaches the elements for success in the growth in the early church. The topic is evangelism and the secret is relationships. That the church must not isolate from the world but bring to the world the holy presence of God that live in the believer.

In this message, Pastor John unpacks the purposes of the church.

We have a picture in our mind of what the perfect life is like. But that isn’t always the case. When the imperfect family observes the “perfect” family, they wonder, What must it be like? In our text today, Luke shares a story to illustrate that only by walking with Jesus can things truly be perfect.

The number one human anxiety is illness and death, but the resurrection of Jesus shows us that God is able to reverse those things. In this message, Pastor John looks at how the healing of a man at the Temple exalts the name of Jesus and gives us hope for healing that lasts into eternity.

Charges levied against Christianity are that it is exclusive, restrictive, and irrelevant. If it weren’t for the resurrection, those charges might be true (1 Co 15:17). But the resurrection changes everything. It has a profound effect on how we should view Jesus Christ and huge implications for the world.

Some people are very skilled at “playing church,” putting on a certain face and speaking through a mask of hypocrisy. Corruption and corrupt ideas can easily worm their way into the church. Passages like this teach us that God is a holy God whose purpose in grace is to eliminate our corruption. The church is not to be a breeding ground for corruption, deceit, and hypocrisy.

How do people know that you love Jesus? Perhaps you’ve heard of or seen a bumper sticker, “Honk if you love Jesus!” Anybody can honk, right? So, what are the indicators of your love for the Lord? How do you know if He is at work in your life? Does everyone that makes a noise and a ruckus, love Jesus?

God wants us to learn how to love because it makes us like Him and prepares us for eternity. In this message, Pastor John looks at four levels of love that are taught in the Bible to help us learn how to love.
