"Jesus Loves Parties" - Tim & Christie Mannin

Jesus. He changed everything about everything (Week 44) This morning we discuss the example of hospitality and acceptance that Jesus showed through grace, love, and generosity. Are we living out our lives in this way? Are we radically inclusive to all that we share our lives with? Are we feeling the conviction of building and creating community the way Jesus did? (John 2, Matt. 9:10-13, 25:35-36, Luke 14:12-14, 19:5, Mark 12:30-31)

"They Broke Bread" - Tim Mannin

The First Church (Part 4) The gospel is expansive and free. We as a church desire to lead our culture, but we can't lead it through violence and hostility. We must lead through building relationships and the breaking of bread. This morning we hear stories from others in our church about the importance of community, building relationships, and breaking bread together. (Acts 2:42-47, Matthew 26:26-28)

"Shine Like Stars" - Tim Mannin

Philippians (Part 5) In the verses we study this morning, we see Paul referencing the Exodus story and how the Israelites complained and grumbled. In so doing, they were so caught up in the mud of their circumstances, that they missed the miracles around them. They had forgotten how far God had brought them. In Paul's letter, he encourages them to stop their grumbling and shine like the stars of the universe. (Philippians 2:14-16)

"Humility" - Tim Mannin

Philippians (Part 3) The root of self-centeredness is so deep and pervasive in our lives that we often don't know how to take the first step towards humility. This morning we are implored to challenge our self-centeredness by beginning to pray differently, focus on others, and value our community. (Philippians 2:1-11)

"The Pursuit of Life on Life Community" - Blair Humphreys

Bringing Life To Our City (Part 8) This morning we welcome guest speaker Blair Humphreys as he discusses what it means to be connected to the people around us. Often times we find ourselves living in silos of separated community, but what this city needs is people to share their lives with each other. The Church is called to be soul on soul, life on life community so that others are truly known and truly loved. (Thes. 2:8)
