Grace Changes Everything - For The Love Of God

Join us as we continue with our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli helps us understand, there is nothing that can separate us from the love of God.  As a follower of God, does your opinions bow to an all powerful God?  If you are in the love of God you have nothing to fear

For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - For Good

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli helps break down Scripture so we can identify the plan and purpose God has for our lives.  Are you living your own calling or the life that has been predestined by God?  Have you surrendered to God so that He can make all things work together for your good?

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. - Romans 8:28 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - The Adoption

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli teaches us how we have been adopted through Jesus into the family of God.  Don't think of yourself as God’s Plan B, because you are the better plan.  It is out of the adoption you are transformed from the inside out.  How have you approached your adoption into God's family?

The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. - Romans 8:16-17 (ESV)

Grace Changed Everything - Lean On

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to lean into God.  Our deeds should match our declaration in who we lean on for any situation.  The safest place to be is to lean on the everlasting arms of Jesus. Let the spirit of The Lord live in you. If you lean on the things of the Spirit you will find peace.

But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. - Romans 8:10-11 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - The Struggle Is Real

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to compare the struggles of Paul to the struggles in our own lives.  Have you ever tried to find answers in sources other than God?  It is through prayer, reading the word of God, and worshipping God that we can be set free from life’s struggles.  Be encouraged knowing you can find fulfilment in the presence of God.

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. - Romans 8:1-2 (ESV)

Grace Changed Everything - Dead Slaves

Join us as we continue our Grace Changes Everything series.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to reflect on the life we are living.  Being a follower of Jesus transforms us from the inside out but if someone has truely laid their life down for God, shouldn't it be exemplified in the way they live?  We come alive when we are mastered by the one who gives life.  Have you asked yourself what masters you?  Will you still choose to follow Jesus no matter your circumstances?

But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 6:22-23 (ESV)

By The Book - Rock or Get ROCKED!

Join us as we continue our current series, By The Book.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to realise how we should live out The Bible.  How well do you really know God? We must know the word of God, hear it, and obey it.  If we build our lives upon His word, no matter what we face, if we have built our lives on the knowledge of who God is, we will not get rocked.  What is the foundation that your life is built upon?

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. - Matthew 7:24-25 (ESV)

By The Book - The Sower and The Four Grounds

Join us as we continue our current series, By The Book.  This week Pastor Neli speaks to us about the parable of the sower and how we can check the conditions of our heart.  It’s in moments where we are unsure that we actually find out what our lives are founded on.  God desires us to have roots that penetrate deeply within the soil of our heart.  Are you willing to lay down your life for others, no matter the season they are going through?

And other seeds fell into good soil and produced grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” And he said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” - Mark 4:8-9 (ESV)

By The Book - What Does The Bible Say About...?

Join us as we continue our current series, By The Book.  This week Pastor Neli helps to address what is in our hearts when we try to look for meaning when we ask, “What does God say about…?”. God always knows what’s best for us because he has eternal perspective.  Are you willing to turn to God no matter the cost?

 

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. - 1 Corinthians 15:56-58 (ESV)

By The Book - How To Read The Bible

Join us as we continue our current series, By The Book.  This week Pastor Neli teaches us how we should read The Bible.  When reading The Bible you should ask yourself, where it was written, what is the genre, and by who it was written.  The Bible is God’s story and we read The Bible to meet with God.  Will you commit to meeting God every day in His scriptures?

Blessed are you, O Lord;
    teach me your statutes!
With my lips I declare
    all the rules of your mouth.
In the way of your testimonies I delight
    as much as in all riches.
I will meditate on your precepts
    and fix my eyes on your ways.
I will delight in your statutes;
    I will not forget your word.

- Psalm 119:12-16 (ESV)
