”This Resurrected Life: Our Brothers’ Keeper” - Pastor Erin Arruda

Are we our brothers' keeper? How far am I to go for my fellow man? Genesis 2:8 says that after God placed breath in the nostrils of man, that he planted a garden in Eden, and there he placed man. He placed man in position and with a purpose. When he planted that garden in Eden, he also planted something in man that he was to steward and cultivate, to fill it and govern it, to tend it and guard it. Knit into the hearts of men by their Heavenly Father is a desire to usher and protect is a passionate pursuit of obedience. 

“What to Do While Waiting for the End of the World” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

In Luke 21, Jesus talked candidly with His followers about the state of current events, the economy, coming natural disasters, the broken systems in religion that have to fall, and even the Day He will once again part the clouds to take us to be with Him forever. But what is amazing is this: while these current events tend to fill the landscape of our conversations and our energy, Jesus gave us three radical ways to live as ambassadors of hope, keeping HIM as the focal point of our horizon. In this message, Pastor Chuck shares the call to Love Jesus with Everything, Reflect Jesus in Everything, and Serve Jesus with Everything!

“Living from a Resurrected Heart!” - Pastor Chuck Ammons

Cultural Christianity could be defined as anywhere we redefine the target of life with Jesus OR anywhere we realign our beliefs and practices to mirror our SOCIETY more than our SAVIOR. In Matthew 15, Jesus confronts cultural Christianity from both the religious leaders and even His own disciples — and He invites us out of the extremes that would seek to weaken our faith or weaponize it…all the way back to a trail of bread crumbs of His broken Body that offer more than enough for us all to come home!
