Surrender | On Earth as it is in Heaven 3

Today, we unpack the second verse of the Lord's Prayer we look at what it really means to pray for God's Kingdom to come, and for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. As God's Kingdom is but a thin veil away from our earthly realm, and to experience the perfect will of God we must be willing to surrender to His leading.

The Father We All Have | On Earth as it is in Heaven 2

Today, as we start to unpack the Lord's Prayer we look at the character of God, our Father in heaven, and how He is a Father who cares for every one of us! We also look at how the Lord's Prayer is a great way to get ourselves in good place spiritually before we enter into a conversation with God.

 

It Starts with Connection | On Earth as it is in Heaven 1

Today, we are starting a new series based on the Lord's Prayer. The Lord's Prayer is the model Jesus teaches on how to pray. But, before we unpack this prayer we are going to lay the groundwork for this series in how connection is part of the equation to drawing near to God and near to others.

Doubt in Triumph | Easter Sunday

For our Easter message we look at how difficult it was for some of the disciples to process the fact that God raised Jesus back to life and out of the grave. How do we process the presence of God when it doesn't always seem logical?

Tragedy Strikes | Good Friday

On this day 2,000 years ago the Good News of the Kingdom of Heaven came to a sudden stop when Jesus was arrested and crucified. Listen, as we unpack the story, and see that when God seems distant, or when God seems silent, He often isn't. God is often up to something when we feel lost and confused. On this day 2,000 years ago when confusion set in for Jesus' followers, He was breaking the power of the devil by defeating death!

A Day of Hope | Palm Sunday

As we celebrate Palm Sunday, we will look at what makes this day so special. What took place 2,000 years ago that made it a day of hope, and prophetically speaking what makes it a day of hope 2,000 years later, and how can we press into the hope Jesus offers so that we can share that with others?

The Law of Sowing and Reaping | Easter Offering COH Women's Empowerment

As we finish our Easter Offering giving series we look at how the biblical law of proportion is connected to the law of sowing and reaping. The Apostle Paul teaches that we should not expect God to pour back into our lives in abundance if we are not willing to invest in His Kingdom in proportion to what we have (If a farmer plants a few seeds, he would be foolish to think he's going to reap a generous crop).

Update on Convoy of Hope Women's Empowerment Initiative

Kim Richardson shares with us the ongoing partnership we have with Convoy of Hope, and shares with us, in detail, what the Women's Empowerment Initiative is  all about.

A Lesson on Stewardship | Easter Offering Brazil

In part 2 of our Easter Offering Giving Series, Chip talks about the importance of managing well the gifts and resources God pours into us, and how the outcome is connected to the condition of our hearts.

Update on Brazil Water Filter Project

In part two of our Easter Offering giving series, Chip interviews Steve Dolan from Brazil. Steve oversees the operations of the water filter project, and he has a lot of good information to share as far as what has been happening in Brazil with the water filters. Also, he and Elba give an update on the Vineyard church they pastor in Belem.
