Life Beyond Busyness

April 9, 2017

Whether we realize it or not, we need each other. For some, coming to church feeds the need to be around other people. For others, staying home gives us that solitude we crave. But in both cases, the focus is “me.” Though we all get certain needs met by attending weekly services, the true purpose of the church is much greater than ourselves. It’s about what we bring to the body and what we can do for each other.

Life Beyond Belief

Isn't the Christian life supposed to be, you know, extraordinary? Join Pastor Merritt as we look at the church's mission, vision and strategy, and how you can have "life beyond" the ordinary as you engage in purposeful ministry every day.

Bible Reference

Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus,
by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh,
and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,
not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
