For part 2 of our “Refocus” series, Chip teaches how we can turn little constants into big experiences as we learn the importance of seeking the presence of God with all the little things in life, and how these little constant reminders of seeking the presence of God in between the refocus moments can turn into big experiences with the Kingdom of Heaven.

Today, we are starting a new series titled, “Refocus.” This is a message intended to help us head into the holidays in a way that will provide some spiritual resources so we can refocus on what’s important in front of us. Jesus gives us a personal invitation to come to Him, follow Him, and be with Him!

As we look at the last statement Jesus made in the Beatitudes, we will notice that He is preparing His disciples for what they are about to face as they have made the choice to follow Him. This same mistreatment will happen to us as well, as it is not some strange thing happening when people insult, and say all kinds of evil things against us as we put our faith in Jesus.

This Sunday as we continue our series on the Beatitudes we look at what it means to be a peacemaker. Is Jesus looking for someone willing to go beyond just keeping the peace? To be a peacemaker means that we intentionally work for peace at reconciling relationships and being proactive in creating an atmosphere of harmony with others

As we continue with our Beatitudes series we will be looking at the condition of the heart, as Jesus teaches on the blessings of God that are upon a pure heart, for they will see God. How do we achieve a pure heart, and just what is it that Jesus is looking for as we represent the Kingdom of God here on earth.

As we continue our series on the Beatitudes, this week we are looking at the topic of mercy. God blesses those who are merciful. God pours His mercy out on those who show mercy to others. We will unpack how it is expected of a follower of Jesus to show mercy to others after receiving it from Jesus.

Thomas Dickson will be sharing a message titled “Don’t Be Afraid – I’ve Got You.” He’ll show that throughout Scripture, from Abraham to Peter, God’s constant reassurance has been: “Don't be afraid.” Even when circumstances seem overwhelming, God calls us to trust His presence and promises more than our fears. By fixing our eyes on Him, we find courage, provision, and the assurance that He will hold us up no matter the trial.

For our Missions Sunday message we look at the importance of helping those in need, how God expects His church, His people, to fill the role in meeting the needs of those who are hurting, and how God identifies with those hurts and needs.
