"Doing Things That Matter, With Time" - Tim Mannin

Five More: Doing Things That Matter (part 1) In this new series we will focus on 5 specific areas where we can do things that matter for God's kingdom purposes. Today we dive into the issue of TIME. Do you control your time or does your schedule control you? Do you live with the daily sense that there is not enough time in a day? Doing things that matter with our time begins, not with us managing our time better, but by choosing our time better. How can we choose for Christ to be Lord of our life, but not allow Him to be Lord of our time?  (Genesis 2, Exodus 20, 31, Luke 5, Mark 1, Isaiah 58)

"Jesus Reset What Matters" - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 10) Jesus reset what it means to be a leader. He reset what it means to do things that matter.His life violated the world's definition of leadership. In light of His example, we ask ourselves, "how are we leading others?" And "are we chasing after the world's definition of greatness?" Jesus became the greatest of the great, because He became the least of the least. (Phil. 2, Mark 14, John 13, Luke 22)  

"Lead Courageously" - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 9) In our lives and our leadership, we often will allow our fears to dictate our future. This morning, we study the four basic fears that hold us back, the movement that takes place when we step past those fears, and the example that the courageous disciples lived out in Acts. (Acts 5:27-42)

 "Person of Love" (Love Recklessly) - Jamie Stolp

Doing Things That Matter (Part 8) Our cause of "loving our neighbor" is a desire we have as a people and a plea that we find in 1 Cor. 13. Everything we are called to do and be as believers is wrapped in love. We ask ourself, "what are we known for?" Are we known as a people of love? (Luke 5:27-32, 1 Corinthians 13:1-8)

"Love Your Neighbor" (Love Recklessly) - Tim Mannin 

Doing Things That Matter (Part 7) What if we treated the greatest commandment, as if it was the greatest commandment? Jesus calls us to love God with all our heart and to love our neighbor as ourself. The simple, practical challenge of extending God's love and grace to the people who live hundred's of feet from our doorsteps. (Mark 12:28-31) 

"Live Differently" - Tim Mannin  

Doing Things That Matter (Part 6) How do we begin to live a life that is different? God teaches Abraham and Isaac a new way to be human and a new approach to what it means to sacrifice. What is it that we are called to lay down? We pick up our cross and respond in the "here I am" moments. (Genesis 22, Luke 9, Romans 12.)

"Who Are You Becoming" (Dream Wildly) - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 5) How do we know if what we are dreaming about is God’s will? Is life some sort of “God-sized” maze that only really Spiritual people can figure out? This morning we take a new perspective on what it means to find God’s will. Instead of searching for what we are supposed to “do” with our life, what if we began to ask, “Who am I supposed to be with my life?” (Exodus 14, Romans 12, 1 Thessalonians 5, Psalm 37.)

"Blank Canvas" (Dream Wildly) - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 4) Is our only dream to become what other people tell us is "normal" or are we scaling the walls of normalcy for God's kingdom purposes? If Jesus were to ask the same question to you that he asked to the blind Bartimaeus (What do you want me to do for you?) Would you ask for more of the same "normalcy" or would you ask for the miraculous? (Jeremiah 29:11, Acts 3, Mark 10)

"The Power in Perhaps" - Ryan Moore

Doing Things That Matter (Part 3) In 1 Samuel 13 & 14 we see Jonathan & his Armor Bearer step out of the shade of the tree & into a battle of impossible circumstances. These men understood that God is not limited by our resources & there is power in "perhaps." What is keeping you in the shade of the tree? Is it your feelings of inadequacy, brokeness, or selfishness? Give God your "Yes" and He will do the rest. (1 Sam. 13 & 14)

"Boat People" - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 2) What is it that is comfortable and safe that you are putting your faith in? It's not about holding onto the familiar, but stepping out toward Jesus. Doing things that matter will cause you step out of the boat and into an ocean of possibilities in The Lord. (Matt 14)

"Your Story" - Tim Mannin

Doing Things That Matter (Part 1) We dive into a new teaching series that is at the core of who we are as a church. "Doing Things That Matter," is a concept that drives so much of who we are as believers. Far too many days we spend simply living instead of shedding mediocre versions of faith and scaling the walls of normalcy for God's kingdom purposes. For at the end of your life, all you really have is your story, and your story will become exactly what you lead it to be. (Luke 10:25-27 & Genesis 3:8-9)

"Stories of Our Church & God's Faithfulness"

This morning was a special morning in the young life of our church. We heard specific stories from the people of our congregation, stories of God's power, love, and faithfulness. Stories of what God has done and is doing are such a major part of who we are as a church. By looking back and remembering how we were all stirred to be a part of this movement, we can look forward with an eager anticipation.

"And Many Animals" - Tim Mannin

Jonah And The Great City (Part 4) Resolving the purpose of the book of Jonah, we close our four week series by studying chapter 4. In this, we see Jonah's struggle with the vine, the city of Nineveh..... and "many animals." What is it that we love? What is it that we care more about than the people of His creation? We are invited to be a part of the great story of God's redemption and His infinite love for His people. (Jonah 4)

"The Great City" - Tim Mannin

Jonah And The Great City (Part 3) This morning we look at part 3 of our series on Jonah and read how Jonah finally answered the call to go. At the heart of our Christian faith is movement, and we are called to "go." Through our obedience, we often see God do some of His biggest miracles. (Jonah 3, Matthew 12) 

"Thank God for Fish" - Tim Mannin

Jonah And The Great City (Part 2) Continuing the story of Jonah, we look at Jonah's prayer within the belly of the fish. The expected cry of help is instead met with a prayer of thanksgiving. Sometimes it is the storms in life that God uses to save us. What storm in life are you going through and are you thanking God for it? (Jonah 1:17, 2)

"The Jonah in all of us" - Tim Mannin

Jonah and the Great City (Part 1) We begin the series "Jonah and the Great City" by taking a new look at a familiar story. We all know that Jonah ran, but by breaking down why he ran, we see a character trait that we all posses. Not forgiving others and holding on to petty judgement can cause us to run from who God has created us to be. The story of the Gospel is forgiveness, are we living that? (Jonah 1, Nahum 3)

"Dying To LIve" - Tim Mannin

Living The Gospel: teachings from the book of John (Part 7) Death is the engine to life. In this message we see how difficult living the Gospel can be, but how dying to our old self is the first step in this process. Are we clinging to our old self? Are we forgetting what is behind us and pressing on? What is our faith costing us? And, what else should it cost us? (John 12:23-33, Luke 9, Philippians 3:7-11)

"What About Him" - Tim Mannin

Living The Gospel: teachings from the book of John (Part 6) This week we read about the seemingly petty friendship between John and Peter. Reflecting on our own lives, we challenge each other to embrace the unique calling on our life, relentlessly pursue who God created us to be, and quit keeping up with the Jones'.  (John 20:1-9 & 21:15-23, Genesis 27 & 32, Exodus 20:17)

"Who Forgot The Bread" - Tim Mannin

Living The Gospel: teachings from the book of John (Part 5) Today, our summer series turns to chapter 6 of John and witnesses the miraculous power of Christ as He feeds the multitudes. The principles in these pages show us that God does the most with the least and that it doesn't matter what you have, but who has you. (John 6:5-13 & Mark 8:10-21)

"John 10:10" - Tim Mannin

Living The Gospel: teaching from the book of John (Part 4) John 10:10 is the seed verse of our church. In examining it, we weigh our life, what we are chasing with this life, and what Scripture says about experiencing "life to the full." (John 10:10, Ecclesiastes 1:12-17 & 2:1-11)
