THE IDEAL CHURCH // Acts 2:42-47

What should a Christian’s church experience be like? That’s the question today, as we dive into “The Ideal Church Passage,” Acts 2:42-47. We will see that a dynamic Church life only occurs when a church collectively embraces practicing the Christian life, getting in proximity together, and becoming purposeful in their relationships.

WHAT IS A DISCIPLE?

Our culture can define “believing in Jesus” as simply affirming a set of facts. However, what does Jesus require of His people? In other words, what exactly does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? What is required of us as believers, and what are we trying to achieve in reaching a lost world?

THE POWER OF OUR WORDS // James 3:1-12

Our speech can be either life-giving or completely destructive. The question for us today is: What story are the words of your life going to tell? This week, Refuge Elder Mark Lehmann will be challenging us in James 3:1-12.

BOLD FREEDOM // Acts 4

What does your life proclaim? Does the way you live indicate that you’ve been dominantly influenced by Jesus, or by someone or something else? Today, guest preacher Caleb Valentine from Christ The King Church in Kenosha, will be looking at the story of Peter and John’s standing before the governing authorities in Acts chapter 4.

THE HIDDEN BLESSINGS OF LIFE'S TRIALS // Psalm 18

What did King David learn about God through the various trials that he faced? Today, guest preacher Steve Miller from Christ The King Church in Kenosha will share about the hidden blessing of life’s trials as he takes us through Psalm 18.

LEARNING CONTENTMENT // Philippians 4:10-23

The question for you today is: are you content? If not, how do you get there? What is true contentment? Today, as we look at Philippians 4:10-23, the Apostle Paul will show us what true contentment is and how we can attain it.

PEACE AND YOUR THOUGHT LIFE // Philippians 4:8-9

Today, we are in Philippians 4:8-9, and we are going to look at how the Bible gives us instructions on how we are to THINK. We often forget that the Bible tells us how to use our thought life, but it has much to say. Further, we will see how the peace that God provides is different from the peace people often run after. 

THE PATH OF PEACE // Philippians 4:2-7

How do you find peace in the Lord? It's such an overwhelming question, yet the Bible has some clear direction on how you can find it. As we look at Philippians 4:2-7, we will find that peace is a path, not a destination.

CITIZENS AND ENEMIES // Philippians 3:17-4:1

We all are the products of examples that have gone before us. The Apostle Paul encouraged the church in Philippi to imitate his example and the example of other godly leaders. However, his reason may catch us off guard; it is because there are real enemies that desire to steer people away from the gospel of Jesus Christ. How are we to stand firm in turbulent cultural times? Today, we look at Philippians 3:17-4:1.

FACE FORWARD // Philippians 3:12-16

The past can be a killer. We can become defeated when thinking about our past failures…in an equally destructive way, we can become complacent when we remember our past successes. How is our relationship with our past supposed to function? As we look at Philippians 3:12-16, we will be encouraged to face forward, and strive to know Christ today.
