Sermons About Spiritual-gifts
The Church & Serving (Romans 12:1-8)
In this message, J.R. Kerr encouraged us to move from being consumers to contributors, actively involved in living out Park's vision to see lives transformed and the city renewed. Speaking out of Romans 12, he pointed out that our first response to God's grace in our lives should be that of service, working together as the body of Christ to bring God glory. Too often we look to the church to meet our needs instead of offering the gifts and talents we have to contribute to what God is doing through our church.

Missiology 301: Sent in Community
The idea of Community is becoming a “buzz†word in our society and in the Church. People talk about wanting to experience “Authentic Relational Community.†In the first sermon in this series we talked about the fact that we are called by God into our cul-de-sacs as a mission field as much as missionaries are called to Africa or Europe as a mission field. We also studied in the second sermon in this series how we are sent to serve those around us. Not serving them for the sake of the redemption of our social structure, but to serve them for the opportunity to share Jesus and His Love with them. Now we come to this idea of being sent in community. Or to say it another way we are sent as a unit. Or to put it in Pauline and Biblical terms we are the “Body of Christ†We are sent together as a family and as a whole to reach out to that Community in which we live. We are here for the betterment of the City. Not the Redemption. Only God can redeem our messed up world. We are only here to live in Loving Authentic Relational Community so that we may have an opportunity to invite those outside the City of CLC in the City of Belle Fourche in to our City of Christian Community and Transparency.
