An Inviting Community
These days, there is an appetite for spirituality and a distaste for "church." Is this really what God wanted? The church was intended to be a dynamic, life-giving movement of people who experience and extend the love of God together. In fact, Jesus said that you can't be spiritual on your own, that the spiritual life is something we do together. If you catch a glimpse of God's dream for doing life together, we are convinced you'll never want anything less.

Why the Local Church? (Ephesians 4:11-16)
In God's design, the local church is to serve as 1) a place to hear God's word preached and applied in a systematic way; 2) a place to put our commitment to God, and to one another, into practice; 3) a context for us to mature; 4) a place to discover and practice our ministry and spiritual gifts with perspective and leadership; 5) a protection from doctrinal error; 6) a place to demonstrate the gospel; and 7) a place to preserve and cultivate the fruit of the gospel.

Some Will Depart

Q And A With Dr. Steve Lawson
In an age of water-downed theology and casual Christianity, the church desperately needs to return to the doctrines of grace that shook the world during the Reformation. These grand truths-historically referred to as the five points of Calvinism (TULIP)-form a biblical outline of God's sovereign plan for saving sinners. Sadly, these foundational principles the Bible so clearly teaches about salvation are often misunderstood and misrepresented and as a result are often discredited and dismissed as divisive doctrines, or worse, unbiblical ones. Consequently, many Christians never experience the God-glorifying, Christ-exalting, pride-crushing, gratitude-inducing, worship-inspiring, missions-motivating, evangelism-encouraging, discipleship-promoting, soul-comforting, faith-strengthening, and life-changing effects that occur when one fully embraces the sovereign grace of God.

Life on the Other Side
No one enjoys thinking about the reality of hell, yet Jesus actually had more to say about hell than He did about heaven. In today's spiritual climate, the doctrine of eternal punishment has come under heavy scrutiny and debate. Many people, including some prominent evangelical scholars, have moved away from a traditional interpretation of the enternal torment in hell, to either a teaching of universal salvation or a view of judgement that results in the annihilation of the sinner, rather than an eternal, conscious punishment. Some feel that the subject is so far beyond our understanding and that it should be left alone in the hands of God, but one's belief in regard to judgement, punishment, and the justice of God will dramatically affect how we live, and how we reach out in love to others. Today's topic may raise more questions and debate in your mind than we are able to answer in our short time together, but if it motivates you to study the scriptures for yourself - great!

We Need To Be Reformed
I have decided to present to you, on this Reformation morning, what my vision is, what I think needs to be done, where I believe the Church of God must go in order to accomplish the Great Commandments and the Great Commission. My goal has never been to do the newest program or to become the best-liked pastor. I have not aspired to personal recognition in the association, nor to satisfy every whim or please everyone. My goal has always been that we, both you and I, would become reformed in Christ. What can we do to be reformed this morning? In 2 Timothy 3:16-17 Paul gives us 6 things we need to do in order for our church to experience true reform, true revival.
