Prepare Him Room: Peace

We are moving through our Advent series called “Prepare Him Room.” Last week we lit the candle of hope and remembered the hope that comes from the faithfulness of God. He promised a redeemer and king over His people, and that promise finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. This week, we light the candle of peace. We live in a time where peace is a hard thing to come…

The Strategy: Grow

This week, we are continuing to look at our “strategies;” those things that help us practically evaluate whether we are being faithful to our calling. This Sunday we will look at growth in the Christian life. We are being faithful when we foster an environment that leads to lives transformed by God through increasing love, knowledge, and obedience to His word. But…

The Strategy: Connect

We are coming into the second week where we are thinking through our church strategies. The mission statement is why we exist, the core values are those things that must characterize us, and these strategies are those practical items that gauge our faithfulness to our calling. This morning we will look at the idea of connection; the bond of relationship that goes beyond a…

The Essentials: Relationship

Last week we began to work through the Mission, Core Values, and Strategies of Chapel City Church. When Jesus Christ called and saved His church, He left her with a mission to work at until His return. We are a people who are called to make disciples, but we have to understand what that looks like. In our mission statement, we are reminded that we are to be a people who…

You can find out how to lose 50 pounds on the Jesus Diet, see movies that try to tell us who God is, and in SoCal, you can find almost any brand of belief you can think of that carries Jesus’ name. Over the next few weeks we’re going…

The Thankful Samaritan

(Click on “Save” above to download this week’s sermon notes) Thanksgiving is more than a holiday of a point of manners. It is an important part of godliness that not only blesses the recipient of gratefulness, it changes the heart of the one who expresses it. Sunday we look at the fascinating results of transforming thanks in Luke 17:11-17. It can transform your…

Building Godly Relationships

Building Godly Relationships in the church is a tough task for everyone, but especially leaders. We are called to love those who are like us and those who are different. This important passage gives us guidelines for speaking and caring for those around us in a world where it is easy to be misunderstood. 1 Timothy 5:1-16 opens the eyes of a young pastor and points him…

The Joy of Praying “Our Father”

Another study on the Lord’s Prayer? Oftentimes the most familiar things in our lives become the least appreciated. Millions of people throughout history have memorized the same prayer, praying it over and over again to the point of monotony. This two-week series in Matthew 6:5-15 will help us remember that Jesus actually gave us words to pray! We will also learn how…
