  • Episode 243: Discipleship Pathway - Live as Christ

    20/10/2024 Duração: 21min

    Today, we finish our three week series on our new Discipleship Pathway. This is a pathway we have created to teach and lead people into a deeper relationship with God and to become better disciples of Jesus Christ. We combined our logo, our mission statement, membership vows, and pratical markers in the journey to create a path for anyone to follow. Today we look at how we are to live as Christ from Mark's calling the disciples and from Philippians as we adopt the attitude of Christ. We are to live as Christ by diving deep into our prayers and our witness. We learn that disciples pray daily and participate in other spiritual disciplines to grow closer to God but they also invite others to follow too. This is how we become fishers of people.Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

  • Episode 240: Words

    15/09/2024 Duração: 21min

    James' 3rd chapter reminds us that words are important. If we use them without reguard to their power, they can cause more damage than good. As the GenZ Bible puts verse 9, “We use our words to praise God, our Father, and sadly, we also use our words to insult or curse fellow humans, who are created in God’s image.” We explore the power of words this week and we are glad you are joining us. Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

  • Episode 239: Questions Jesus Asked - What are you looking for?

    08/09/2024 Duração: 20min

    We wrap up this six-week series on the book, "Questions Jesus Asked," by Magrey DeVega, today. We have looked at a different question each week to deepen our relationship with the one who asked them. This week we explore the question, "What are you looking for?" As Andrew and the other disciple come to follow Jesus, his is the question he asks them. It begs the question, what is it you are looking for and are you truly ready for the answer that Jesus will give? Are you ready and willing to do the work that the answer requires?Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

  • Episode 238: Questions Jesus Asked - Whom will you love?

    01/09/2024 Duração: 20min

    This is a six-week series on the book, "Questions Jesus Asked," by Magrey DeVega. We will look at a different question each week to deepen our relationship with the one who asked them. This week we explore the question, "Whom will you love?" In the Sermon on the Plain in Luke 6, Jesus gives some really hard things to do as his disciples. We are to love our enemy and if we do, that tells the world the power of Jesus's love and grace. This is easier said than actually done, but it isn't impossible for someone. Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

    25/08/2024 Duração: 19min

    This is a six-week series on the book, "Questions Jesus Asked," by Magrey DeVega. We will look at a different question each week to deepen our relationship with the one who asked them. This week we explore the question, "What do you live for?" We all live for something, college football, the fall, pumpkin spice whatever, basketweaving, or the grandchildren. However, if we are to have an abundant life, one that follows Jesus, then we need to cast those things aside and put Christ first. We are to pick up our cross and follow Jesus. Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

    18/08/2024 Duração: 20min

    This is a six-week series on the book, "Questions Jesus Asked," by Magrey DeVega. We will look at a different question each week to deepen our relationship with the one who asked them. This week we explore the question, "Why are you anxious?" In Luke's gospel, Jesus reminds us of ravens and lilies who aren't worried about life as much as us humans. If God will provide for them, how much more will God provide what we need? Anxiety is a hard thing to turn off and in this sermon we explore some ways to combat those emotions and to focus on what God is and has already given us. Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

    This is a six-week series on the book, "Questions Jesus Asked," by Magrey DeVega. We will look at a different question each week to deepen our relationship with the one who asked them. This week we explore the question, "Why are you afraid?" The disciples are being rocked by a storm on the lake and JEsus is just taking a nap in the back of the boat. When they wake him up, he asks them, "Why are you afraid?" The tone of that question can chage the way we hear it and the way we can answer it.Join us at 10:00 am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online this Sunday. Thank you again for worshipping with us.
