AVOID THIS RELATIONSHIP KILLER

You know one thing Jesus never did?

Jesus never gossiped. But we often do.

Want unity in your relationships?

Stop talking about others behind their backs.

It's tempting because it makes us feel better about ourselves.

Instead, go directly to the person. Speak with them.

Let's follow Jesus' example and build stronger connections.

The only way someone might meet Jesus is if they meet someone like Jesus.

WHAT A ROOMBA HAS IN COMMON WITH SPIRITUAL GIFTS

God's given you a unique gift.

But remember, our gifts aren’t just to bless us, but to bless others too.

Our gift is like a Roomba that only works in someone else’s house.

Whether it's prophecy, teaching, or hospitality, your gift isn't about self-promotion. It's about blessing others and finding your purpose.

Maybe you're meant to make music, work with kids, or greet people.

Being a part of the church can help you discover your gift.

The key? When you discover your gift, use it joyfully. That's when you'll truly feel alive in your faith.

When you’re not a part of church you will never know what it means to be part of the whole, because you are trying to be everything when all you're created to do is your one gift. You cannot be a full Christian alone.

Happy 4th of July!

We will be closed today, thank you for understanding.

Be safe and we will see you Sunday 9:00 A.M. 10:30 A.M. & 12 for our Español service.

THE FAST TRACK TO KNOWING GOD

Friends, you and I oftentimes will go our entire day, and the only thing we do for someone else is open a door.

It's easy to get caught up in our own world, isn't it?

What if we intentionally served others?

The church offers countless opportunities. From helping with kids to leading groups, there's something for everyone.

Every act of service is a chance to be like Jesus.

It's the quickest way to know God better. After all, God's the ultimate servant.

So, why not step out of your comfort zone and serve? You might just find it's the most fulfilling thing you do all week.

Exciting news! We're offering an 8-week course led by a certified Ramsey and Crown Financial Solutions coach. Learn how to manage your finances wisely and get your financial life on track.

Join us every Monday at 7 PM for this invaluable opportunity.

The difference between talent and abilities and gifts is that gifts always bring glory to God. Talents and abilities can bring glory to God, but gifts always do.

DID YOU KNOW JESUS DID THIS FOR YOU?

For centuries, people sacrificed animals to atone for sins.

The priests would lay their hands on a goat to take on the sins of the people. They called this the scapegoat.

Jesus was crucified for our sins, like the scapegoat.

He was led outside the city, crowned with thorns, and crucified.

This act symbolized the removal of our sins.

His resurrection proves He is the Son of God, and His sacrifice covers all our sins.

You don't have to live with shame anymore. Jesus is our atoning sacrifice.

Through Christ, you are seen as a friend of God.

Jesus has made us, who were once formerly enemies of God because of our sin, now friends of God. And that can change everything.

Save the Date: Thursday, June 20th! 7:00 P.M.

Join us for an unforgettable All-Church Worship Night!

We’ll come together for an hour of worship through songs, scripture, prayer, and communion. From kids to adults, everyone is invited to participate.

As summer and vacation time approaches, let's spread the word far and wide, just like we did for our Revival. Don’t miss this special night of worship and community!

HOW TO BE CONNECTED WITH GOD

Many feel disconnected from God.

They want to hear Him but can't.

Jesus shows us how to stay connected.

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes a so that it will be even more fruitful.” John 15:1-2 NIV

Does pruning feel good? No. But it's necessary.

He cuts off joy to give more joy, cuts off faith to build more faith.

God wants you to be better than before.

Stay connected. Trust His process.

THE ONLY IDENTITY THAT MATTERS

We've all been wrongly labeled.

It's not just about what they call you, but what they think of you.

You know, “the guy on his fifth job this year,” or “the woman with troubled relationships.”

People have these perceptions that stick with you, and soon enough, you start believing it too.

But when you accept Jesus, you're no longer an enemy but a friend, the one Jesus loves.

The identity that really matters is being a Friend of God.

Sometimes we need to take a step in obedience in the natural before God shows up with the super to make it supernatural.

THIS IS YOUR TRUE IDENTITY

Your true identity is being a friend of God.

We often define ourselves by things that don't matter.

And when we lose those things it brings anxiety, depression, burnout, or suicidal thoughts.

Let's embrace how God intended us to be.

Accept yourself as He defines you, as the one He loves.

We are God’s masterpiece, and to live from any other identity as our primary identity is to miss out on what God has created you and I to be.

YOUNG ADULT SUMMER NIGHTS kick off Tomorrow Night, June 4th @ 7p.m. in The Landing.

FREE TACOS, powerful worship, a special message and a time of fellowship.

These nights are for all 18-30 year olds looking for authentic community and connection.

Parenting has 4 phases.

THE 4 PHASES OF PARENTING

It’s important to recognize what phase you’re in, and parent from that unique approach.

Phase 1 is the Commander phase - when kids are infants and toddlers.

It's all about telling them what to do.

Phase 2 is the Coach phase, for kids between 6 to 11 years old.

We show them how to do things and give them choices.

Phase 3 is the Counselor phase for teens, where parents act as guardrails.

Phase 4 The final phase, when kids graduate high school, is the Consultant phase - offering help when needed.
