Welcoming the Stranger

Kyle Kauffman

It’s easy for the church as a whole and us as individuals to drift in the direction of an inward focus. There are so many needs within the church that we can spend all of our time simply focused on meeting them. But God has given us a mission, and that mission requires us moving out. Moving outward with a welcoming mindset towards those outside the church is uncomfortable and challenging. And yet as we move outward, we do so in the love of Christ, by the power of Christ, with faith in the promises of Christ. As part of God’s family, we can all take steps to move outward and extend welcoming arms toward others in hope that God will use us as a part of welcoming them into his family as well.

Luke 6:32-36

What Kind of Christians Will Your Children Be?

Keith Rohrer

Let’s say you’re not very interested in missions; you should come. Let’s say you’re a parent; you should come. Let’s say you think that disciplemaking is just for global workers; you should come. Let’s say you think the most important thing you can do is make a good living, or be a nice person, or help others, or…. you should come.

A Passion for Reaching the Next Generation

Joel Wood

One of the greatest privileges that God gives us is to tell the Next Generation about who He is and what He’s done for us. We get the incredible privilege of being God’s ambassadors and messengers to our kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews, and anyone else we know in the next generation. This role of passing on the good news of who God is and what he’s done takes time and intentionality, along with flexibility and spontaneity. It takes teaching, modeling, and praying for the next generation. It is an incredibly high calling and an incredibility difficult calling. And yet we carry out this calling believing in a God who can use us as his instruments to create a passion in the Next Generation for God and His Glory.

A Passion for Reaching the Nations

Brandon Fisher

The Old Testament primarily tells the story of God’s dealings with the people of Israel. But even in this story we find that God cares about the rest of the nations as well. He never intends his blessing and grace to stop with his people, but rather wants it to overflow in an effort to draw the nations to himself. God is on a mission to see his glory displayed and enjoyed among people from all the nations. He is accomplishing that mission. He will see it through to fulfillment. And we get the joyful privilege of being a part of the mission both globally and locally in our own community.

Psalm 67

A Passion for Generosity

Kyle Kauffman

God is an incredibly generous God. He owes us nothing and yet he gives us life, and breath, and all that we have. All that we truly deserve is judgment for our sin, yet God regularly displays his grace in how he generously provides for us. We glorify God not only by acknowledging His generosity, but also in being generous with all that he’s given us. We want to be a people who joyfully worship God by giving freely to meet the needs of others and see the gospel advance. We want to be a people who give generously so that in our generosity people might come to know the generous God who is behind all we have.

Psalm 112

All the Small Things

Kyle Kauffman

It’s easy to believe that only those who do great things for God really make a difference in this world. It’s really easy to get discouraged when we are bogged down with all sorts of small things. It’s even easier to feel discouraged when it feels like all those small things are making absolutely no difference. We wonder if it’s worth it. We wonder if we should keep going. Zechariah 4 is a chapter that’s written to encourage us in the midst of all the small acts of ministry that we do here on earth. It’s written to show us that God will accomplish his purposes for the world through the ordinary acts of ordinary people like you and me.

Zechariah 4:1-14

Opposition Ahead

Kyle Kauffman

Have you ever noticed that when you set out to obey God it’s rarely easy? The people of Israel met all sorts of opposition in their efforts to build the temple. They started the task with enthusiasm, but soon found that it was both far more difficult and far less rewarding than they thought it would be. When we seek to obey God in some area, isn’t it often a similar story. Praying with our families is difficult. Personal Worship doesn’t seem to produce immediate results. The new ministry we started serving in was exciting at first, but now it seems every week presents a new challenge. The neighbors we are trying to reach want nothing to do with us. God does not promise that we will not face opposition in this life as we seek to obey him, but he does promise to overcome all opposition in the end, and in the meantime to let nothing face us that isn’t ordained by him.

Zechariah 1:18-2:13

The Filter

Joel Wood

We need to be discerning in who we give our ears and or attention to. Just because people sound good does not mean we should listen to them. Just because people are saying what we like does not mean we should listen to them. Discernment on what voices and what content we allow into our lives takes work, but is worth the effort. We find joy in discerning what is true and allowing that to shape our life and discerning what is false and avoiding that.

1 John 4:1-6
