Why does order matter when the church gathers?

In 1 Corinthians 14:20โ€“40, Paul reminds us that God is not a God of confusion but of peace. Our gifts, our roles, and even the way we gather as a church are not ultimately about us. โ€œLet all things be done for building up.โ€

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will preach a message titled โ€œGodโ€™s Order,โ€ as we finish our study of spiritual gifts and consider what Godโ€™s Word teaches about maturity, orderly worship, and submitting to His design.

Come worship with us as we seek to build up the body, remove ourselves as obstacles to the gospel, and honor God in the way He has called His church to gather.

Thereโ€™s room for you here.

Why does God give spiritual gifts to His people?

In 1 Corinthians 14:1โ€“19, Paul reminds us that spiritual gifts are meant to be used in love, for the building up of Christ's church and the good of others.

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will preach a message titled "Useful Gifts," as we look at some often debated spiritual gifts and what Scripture teaches about using them rightly.

We may not have every question answered, but we can be certain of this: God's gifts are meant to serve His people, build up His church, and bring glory to Him.

There's room for you here.

The church isn't a place we simply attend. It's a body to which every believer belongs.

In 1 Corinthians 12:12โ€“31 (ESV), Paul reminds us that Christ has joined His people together as one body, giving each believer unique gifts to serve one another, build up the church, and bring glory to God. No member is unnecessary, and no gift is insignificant.

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will preach a message titled "Many Gifted Members," exploring how God has designed His church to function together as one body with many members, all united in Christ.

Come worship with us as we consider how God has gifted each of us to faithfully serve His church and advance His kingdom.

In 1 Corinthians 12:1โ€“11, Paul reminds us that the Holy Spirit gives a variety of gifts to His people, not for personal status or recognition, but for the common good, the building up of Christ's church, and the glory of God.

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will begin our study of spiritual gifts with a message titled "Your Gift." Together we'll consider where our gifts come from, why God gives them, and how they are to be used to serve others and proclaim Christ.

Come worship with us as we seek to faithfully use what God has graciously given us.

There's room for you here.

Our culture often views God's design for men and women as restrictive, but Scripture presents it as wise, good, and beautiful.

In 1 Corinthians 11:2โ€“16 (ESV), Paul reminds us that God created men and women with equal value while giving them distinct roles that reflect His order and bring Him glory. In marriage and in the church, these roles are not about superiority or domination, but about faithfully displaying God's design for His people.

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Greg will preach a message titled "God's Design: Different Roles, Equal Worth," exploring how God's design for men and women is for His glory, our good, and the advancement of the gospel.

Come worship with us as we seek to joyfully submit to God's Word and celebrate His good design.

"So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." โ€” 1 Corinthians 10:31

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will walk through 1 Corinthians 10:14โ€“11:1, showing how Christians are called to live in a way that glorifies God, loves our neighbors, and removes obstacles to the gospel.

What do the Israelite's in the wilderness and Christians today have in common?

In 1 Corinthians 10:1โ€“13, Paul reminds us that while temptations may look different today, the heart behind them has never changed. God calls us to remember His faithfulness, flee from sin, and trust Him to provide strength in every temptation.

This Sunday at 9:00 AM, Pastor Andrew Howard will preach a message titled "Common Temptations," exploring how God's Word equips us to stand firm and find our hope in Christ.

Come worship with us. There's room for you here.
