Emerging Conservative

So far in our study, we have talked about knowing, enjoying, and sharing with others about a life with Christ. In this study, John will be giving us self-checks in the one area that undercuts us sharing that life with others….. when we undercut our own witness.

There are three big questions we will be asking ourselves to root out some of the biggest reasons why the world discounts the church and Christians. By wrestling with these concerns honestly, we can identify areas where we can grow in an authentic and real testimony that the world needs to experience.

Join us as we continue our new study in the letters of John!

John’s letter’s challenge and teaches us in areas of our Christian walk. In this section, we will ask if we are truly walking in Jesus’ light? Do we enjoy fellowship together? Can we identify our own sinfulness? Do we proclaim the light of Jesus Christ?

We will look at the three things the world needs to know to answer these questions in ways that brings freedom in our life!

Join us for a new study series in the three letters of John that are captured in the New Testament. While John had written five books of the Bible, these are unique from the other two.

The gospel of John was written so that you can know Jesus and so that you may believe He is the Messiah (John 20:31).

Revelation was written to coronate the Savior as he shared the revealed vision of the last days.

These are written to confirm the saints. These three short letters are packed with truths and encouragements for Christians living in a fallen world. Where do we find our joy? What should Christian community look like? How can we grow in following Christ in the midst of chaos, fear and anger?

There is a good chance that you might not know a lot about Barnabas as one of the heroes of our faith. However, he was an incredible yet humble leader in the early church who we learn about in the book of Acts. So much so that the apostles called him Barnabas (son of encouragement) instead of his given name, Joseph.

In this character study, we will learn multiple characteristics of the man that if we adopt in our lives, we will grow in being encouragers as well.

Racism is an explosive topic in our culture. Many loud voices are crying out from a variety of different emotions, positions, political stances and more. People are wondering how to move forward with more understanding and grow from where we find ourselves today.

Join us to explore this moment in time in light of the Scripture, the heart of Christ, and one another’s stories. If we don’t hear each other, we can’t connect to one another. A special thank you to Pastor Rohan Anderson (The Gathering Place), Pastor Jackie Peterson (Logos Ministries), and Jessica Coleman with their help preparing for this event.

After our look at “the power of one”, it’s important to bring in “the power of the one true God”!
When we put these two together, there is great power in victory in our lives. How we understand this will determine what kind of foundation we stand on as Christians.
We will also be learning about just how serious a covenant is and what it means in our lives today.

In our last study, we talked about the mountain top moments when everything comes together and victory is in hand! While we wish that would be the end of the story (like a movie), we have to talk about what happens next.

What happens when we mess things back up? Or when life just takes a turn again? What happens when we head back into the valleys?

Join us as we look at what happens with Joshua and the Israelites after the walls of Jericho fall down. Their next battle goes quite differently.
