Advent Conspiracy
Want to join a conspiracy? This year, we're joining churches around the world to turn Christmas up-side down (actually right-side up) and buck the trend of consumerism this Christmas season. Worship Fully. Spend Less. Give More. Love All.
Spend Less
December 13, 2009 | Isaiah 55:1-7 |
Part two of the Advent Conspiracy series.
Worship Fully
December 6, 2009 | Matthew 2:1-12 |
In the book of Matthew the story of the birth of Jesus is told within the political backdrop of the times. This Jesus was the one prophesied to be King, but He came in the most unexpected way. And from the beginning there was a battle between His Kingdom and the false king that usurped His Throne. The challenge for us is to remove our worship from the false king and to put our worship on the true King, Jesus Christ.
9 Marks of Authentic Christians

The Mark of Self-Control
November 29, 2009 | 2 Peter 1:1-6 |
Have you ever noticed that self-control is a difficult thing? The more we think about not doing something, the more we want to do it! Biblical self-control is actually power that comes from the Holy Spirit so that our passions and desires are aligned with Christ.

The Mark of Patience
October 25, 2009 | Ephesians 4:1-22 |
Pastor Gary continues his series from the fruit of the Spirit.
In Paul’s letter to the Ephesians he challenged them to live according to what they had received. He told them to “put off the old self” and to “put on the new self.” One of the marks of the new self that he told them to bear was the mark of patience. As Christ followers and as those who have received the gift of the Holy Spirit we can yield our lives to the Spirit’s calling and exhibit the mark of patience.
The Mark of Joy
October 11, 2009 | Philippians 4:1-9 |
What is the difference between happiness and joy? How can we pursue the mark of joy? Joy flows from God and we must tap into his river of Joy that is resistant to circumstances, and not dependent on them.
