God’s Glory In Our Church

June 11, 2023

Many go to church to visit friends or to hear inspiring music. What if the primary reason we belong in church is to worship God in His presence, recognizing who He is and who we are? In this message, we notice three features of God’s building—the church. The church has a vital responsibility not just to one another, but also to the wider culture.

What should motivate believers in daily life?  As we mature in the faith, we come to realize more and more that life is not about us—it’s about God.

Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are the two most meaningful observances in the life of the church. Christ commanded that we practice them as outward symbols of His inner working in our lives.

People count greatness by power, possessions, or charisma. Jesus displayed it by taking a towel and washing feet like a slave might have done in Bible times.

The early church was unstoppable. Now, as we enter into fellowship with God, we learn to leave behind a life of darkness and move forward into the light.

What is God’s vision for the church? It was Jesus who proclaimed, “I will build My church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” In this message from Acts 5, we find five reasons why the Bible affirms we should belong to a local church.

Can ambition be redeemed? In Matthew 20, Jesus’ followers wanted to be at His side in the coming kingdom, but unholy ambition lurked beneath the surface.

Jesus loved outcasts. In a brief encounter with a woman who struggled with continuous bleeding, we glimpse His compassion. In this message from Mark 5, we notice three descriptions of this woman’s position. We too are transformed by the presence and message of Jesus Christ.

Large crowds followed Jesus, hoping to be cured of their many ailments. What motivated Jesus when He looked at the troubled masses?

How do we know what happens after we die? Psychics, mediums, and people who’ve had near-death experiences cannot be trusted.

Despite any attacks or enemies in our lives, God’s plan will remain. Before Jesus was betrayed, He went to Gethsemane to pray. In this message from Matthew 26, we notice not only Jesus’ divinity but also His humanity in His intense grief and sorrow. When we accept everything from God’s hand, we will find a whole different perspective.
