SERIES: Genesis: The Beginning... SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." Genesis is the book of origins, THE BEGINNING. It is the collection of stories that lay the foundation for how and why the world is the way it is. The Creator established the cosmos according to what He chose to do, and THE BEGINNING is what all of Scripture builds on. Hear the stories anew as we go back to THE BEGINNING...

#17-0702: Adjusting Focus

SERIES: 1 Timothy: What Am I Doing? SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: Have you ever thought to yourself, WHAT AM I DOING? A young Timothy finds himself in charge during the apostle Paul's first imprisonment. It would have been easy for Timothy to wonder WHAT AM I DOING? This letter from Paul is to encourage and remind Timothy what he is supposed to be DOING. He is to battle for the doctrine and teachings that have been established by God for His people the church. God is still using this letter today to lead us to ask, WHAT AM I DOING?

#17-0528: The End

SERIES: Amos: Seek God and Live. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: How do you react when someone with less education and sophistication tries to teach or tell you something? What if a fruit picking shepherd wandered to the steps of your church or capitol building and started telling the leaders that collapse was going to strike at the heart of your comfort? How would you react to the message that the appearance of life happily supported by God is really the end stages of life support? Would you SEEK GOD AND LIVE?

#16-1127: Have You Learned Your Lesson?

He asks us to RESPOND to Him by returning and joyfully living. Will we REMEMBER...RESPOND...?

 

#16-0703: Un/Divided

SERIES: Numbers Game: When Things Just Don't Add Up. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: Numbers are used to count, measure and label. For most, math is something we tolerate, as often the numbers just don't add up. In the Old Testament, the Book of Numbers is the story of the Hebrews' journey towards the Promised Land following the Exodus from Egypt. In it we find two censuses taken as they wander through the desert for forty years. When asked to take the land, the math just doesn't add up, and so they play a costly NUMBERS GAME. What do you do when things just don't add up?

 

#16-0501: Tension for You

SERIES: Back to the Future II Thessalonians. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: We spent a Summer in Thessalonica a few summers ago, and we are going back to the second book. In II Thessalonians, Paul is writing his second letter to a group of believers who feared they may have missed the second coming of Christ. Paul takes them BACK TO THE FUTURE and reminds them of his previous letter describing the Day of the Lord’s return. So let’s go BACK TO THE FUTURE of II Thessalonians, and hopefully we’ll get you back in time.

 

#16-0131: Get the Picture

SERIES: #uKNOit: So You Will Know That I Am Yahweh. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: "Why?!" "So that you would KNO." "KNO what?!" "KNO the one true God, Yahweh." The people of God in Ezekiel's day were supposed to KNO it but they had forgotten and rejected God. All of God's working in creation reveals that we live in a cursed and broken world. Without His loving hand of grace on our lives, we are hopeless or at best temporarily hopeful. Do #uKNOit?

#15-1101: Where Have You Been?

SERIES: Scary Hope: Micah. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: Hope is scary. Real hope has real fear leading to real change.

Our series through Micah will help us see how only a relationship with Jesus can give us SCARY HOPE.

#15-0308: See to Believe

SERIES: I beLIEve. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: "Believe me and have a great life." Everyone has a message for our lives, but which one should we believe? How can we separate truth from LIE? The disciple John has a message for us, but is it trustworthy or just ink and letters written on a page? Do we look for signs and wonders--a new revelation from God--or simply trust Him by faith? John wrote his eyewitness account with one simple purpose in mind: that we "might believe and have life in His name." Do I beLIEve?

#11-1127: I Believe in God, BUT... I Don't Trust Him Financially

SERIES: Practical Atheist. SPEAKER: Trevor Kirtman. SUMMARY: It is the holiday season, a time to give thanks and be merry with cheer. The holidays are a convenient time to make mention of the “Man upstairs,” but how does life really play out as God and people are watching? Does belief in God come with conditions or does it fuel how life is lived? Practical atheism is a comfortable belief in God with a life lived devoid of Him. Learn how to avoid the practical atheist life by replacing the belief statement ”I believe in God BUT…” with “I believe in God AND….” #2011 #topical
