Be Baptized! – April 6, 2016

Today’s Translation: Holman Christian Standard Bible | Weekly Video: Cut to the Heart (Acts 2:37-41)

“‘Repent,’ Peter said to them, ‘and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'” – Acts 2:38 (HCSB)

Live It Out!

Baptism is both an outward expression of an inward change and a public proclamation that you are now a member of the body of Christ. While not required for salvation, it is an important part of the Christian journey. When you are baptized, you are telling the world you are dead to the world and made alive in Christ – you are sharing in both Jesus’ death and resurrection. This is a great next step for anyone who has just come to faith in Jesus.

Loved by God – June 8, 2016

Today’s Translation: Holman Christian Standard Bible | Weekly Video: United We Stand (John 17:20-26) “I am in them and You are in Me. May they be made completely one, so the world may know You have sent Me and have loved them as You have loved Me.” – John 17:23 (HCSB) Live It Out! When Jesus died on the cross for our sin, it was the ultimate act of love. Because we have been washed clean by the blood of Christ, our bodies are now God’s holy temple. Just as the Spirit filled Jesus to allow Him to do His ministry, the indwelling of the Spirit gives us everything we need to accomplish the work God has set before us. We must be one as Jesus and the Father are one by allowing the Holy Spirit to direct our steps each and every day. from Paradigm Shift Ministries http://ift.tt/1t81ZEW via IFTTT

Commanded to Love – March 3, 2018 Introduction : Following Jesus -> John’s account of the Last Supper (ch13-17) Big Idea : If we love Jesus, we must love each other. Scripture : John 13:1-14:24 (CSB) John 13:1-11 (CSB) Before the Passover Festival, Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart from this world to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. Now when it was time for supper, the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son, to betray him. Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into his hands, that he had come from God, and that he was going back to God. So he got up from supper, laid aside his outer clothing, took a towel, and tied it around himself. Next, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet and to dry them with the towel tied around him. He came to Simon Peter, who asked him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?” Jesus answered him, “What I’m doing you don
