Big Questions - Week 6 - Why Me?

Have you ever thought - Why Me?  Why would God love me?  Why would God use me?  I wonder if Paul ever asked that.  He started life blowing up churches and throwing Christians in prison to leading the movement.  It is an incredible story and Paul embraces his unique position.  Do we do that?

Big Questions - Week 5 - Why do bad things happen to Christ Followers?

Pain, loss, and grief have a way of pushing Christ Followers away from Jesus.  It shouldn't be that way.  How can we get a better perspective of the world in which we live and the promises of God to us in pain, loss, and grief?  Pastor Ed deals with that topic today!!

Big Questions - Week 4 - Why do I struggle to follow Jesus?

If you have ever wondered why it is a struggle to follow Jesus, then this is the message for you.  We continue our Big Questions series in Romans 7-8 as we learn to live a life controlled by the Spirit and do the acts that lead to life. 

Big Questions - Week 3 - Why Did Jesus Die?

How would you answer the question - Why did Jesus die?  You may have had an answer for a while, but is there more to it?  Paul covers this over 3 chapters in Romans.  We look at it today!!

Big Questions - Week 2 - What's Wrong with Me?

 Humpty Dumpty's story is much like ours.  He was broken and couldn't find anyone to put him back together again.  Are we broken?  Who can put us back together again?  Pastor Ed shares about this in week 2 of Big Questions. 

Big Questions - Week 1 - What is Wrong with the World?

Have you ever picked up a newspaper, watched the news, or read a post on Social Media and asked - What is wrong with the world?  As we kick off a new series, we will try to answer this very question. 

Prayer

Last year we asked everyone in a church to commit to praying for our church in 2020.  Today, we want to remind everyone of that commitment and encourage pray to take place.  But why do we pray?  What do we want from prayer?  What does God want from prayer?  

Unsubscribe

Many of our New Year plans involve what we are going to do but what if we need to stop doing things?  What do you need to Unsubscribe to?
