Week 2: Building Community

One of the central messages of Pentecost in Acts 2 is that God pours out His Spirit on all who come to Him. Since prejudice and partiality have no place in the Kingdom of God, James warns believers against showing favoritism. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how God enables us to become Kingdom people that resist categorizing others.

Finishing up our Eastertide series, The Uniqueness of Jesus, we will focus on some of the promises Jesus made to his disciples to help them get through the difficult time of his crucifixion and death and to equip them to carry on the message of his new Kingdom movement. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how these promises are for us today and how they can strengthen and sustain us and lead us to enjoying the abundant life Jesus promised.

Ruth Clowater from SIGA Ministry Partners shares what it means to be created in the image of God.

We continue our series on the Uniqueness of Jesus. Today we look at Jesus and the Atonement--the idea that the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross reconciles a sinful humanity with God and offers the forgiveness of sins. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how the writer of Hebrews reveals to us how the sacrifice of Jesus has set us free and that we should never desire to go back to our old ways of enslavement.

We continue our series of the Uniqueness of Jesus. This week we focus on the whole story of Jesus. Some believers in Corinth had begun to question--even deny--the reality of Christ's resurrection. In response, the Apostle Paul firmly reestablishes the resurrection as the very foundation of the Christian faith, showing that Christ's victory over death secures the future resurrection of all who belong to him. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how we are a part of God's larger story and because of the unshakable hope of our own future resurrection we are called to stand firm, remain steadfast, and live faithfully in light of the eternal life to come.

Jesus was not merely a gifted teacher or a charismatic religious figure. He came with a clear, intentional, multi-faceted mission. If we fail to understand His mission, we risk misinterpreting His life, His death, and even His resurrection--and when our expectations are misplaced, the result is often confusion, disappointment, and a lingering sense of emptiness. Join Pastor Greg as he shares the mission of Jesus and how that still informs our life today.
