Role Call - The Position or Positioned

Join us today for another great message in our Role Call series. This week Henry compares what it means to be in the position of a calling versus being positioned for a calling.  Let our calling be a demonstration of our worship to God.  Do you see your worship as part of your calling?  Is there evidence in your life that you are positioned for a calling?

And the Lord called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you called me.” Then Eli perceived that the Lord was calling the boy.  Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down, and if he calls you, you shall say, ‘Speak, Lord, for your servant hears.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place.- 1 Samuel 3:8-9 (ESV)

Role Call - Hello, is it me you're looking for?

Join us as we start our new series, Role Call. This week Pastor Neli helps us figure out what the calling of God looks like for us as individuals, and as a church. God is looking for us as Christians to rise up.  Have you ever wanted to know what the calling of The Lord is for your life?

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. - Romans 8:28-31 (ESV)

A Disciple is Renewed

Join us for another great message in our series, A Disciple is. This week Pastor Neli talks all about being renewed. The best way to find God is in a renewed life that has been transformed by the power of God.  Do you live a Holy Spirit empowered Christianity that has made you new?

“Remember not the former things,
    nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I am doing a new thing;
    now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
    and rivers in the desert.

- Isaiah 43:18-19 (ESV)

A Disciple is Empowered

Join us for another great message in our series, A Disciple is.  This week Pastor Neli and Lily Su'a talk about the empowerment of the disciple of Christ. As followers of Jesus, we are empowered by His Spirit.  In order to live as a Christian, we need the power of the Holy Spirit. Are you going to sit idle or utilize the power of the Holy Spirit that’s in you?

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” - Acts 1:8 (ESV)

A Disciple is Maturing

Join us for another great message in our current series, A Disciple is. This week Pastor Neli helps us to get equipped by maturing in our growth in God.  God is calling us for growth.  Growth equals fruitfulness.   Is your fruitfulness in life representing your maturity in your growth in Christ?

And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ - Ephesians 4:11-14 (ESV)

A Disciple is Unshakable

Join us as we continue our current series, A Disciple is.  This week Pastor Neli and Henry Peterson speak about the rock-solid foundation we should have in Christ so we are prepared when the storms come.  Is your faith in God unshakable? When the storms in your life come, how will you respond?

“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)

A Disciple is Loving

Join us for another great message in our current series, A Disciple is...This week Pastor Neli and Mark Dellit talk about the true love of a disciple of Christ.  As a follower of Christ God has called us to engage in our society and our spheres of influences.  God has also called us to be a vessel of restoration for other people - that is the Gospel.  How visible is your Gospel?

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. - 1 John 4:7 (ESV)

A Disciple is...

Join us as we begin our new series, "A Disciple is...".  This week Pastor Neli helps us to understand how God has designed us to be disciples.  Jesus didn’t want to make Christians, he wanted to make disciples.  We have been called to follow Jesus as we walk in fellowship with other believers.

Passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” And immediately they left their nets and followed him. - Mark 1:16-18 (ESV)

Beneath The Surface - Necessary Endings and New Beginnings

Join us as we end our series Beneath The Surface.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to reflect on past versus future seasons God has for us.   How difficult is it for you to let go of the past so you can make room for the next season God has in store for you?  Do you trust God to bring you through the valleys in order for you to be spiritually strengthened? Have you determined what season you are in now?  Until you can say “I’m here in this season of my life and I’m fully present”, then we can’t fully enter into what God has for us.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man. - Ecclesiastes 3:11-13 (ESV)

Beneath The Surface - Power Lines

Join us as we continue our series, Beneath The Surface.  This week Pastor Neli helps us how to operate with power and with wise boundaries.  All of us have a specific kind of power that we operate with but it’s knowing how to utilize that power with the wise boundaries that God gives us in order to maximize how we flow in that power. Are you using your power to glorify God?

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. - Psalm 16:5-6 (ESV)
