09/04/2026

Mark your calendar: Thursday, September 17th, we are celebrating Anniversary Night at Recovery Church Nashville with Georgette Jones !

Hey everyone! God has been moving in a big way in my life since 2020. And in the last year I have felt like He wants me to share how He's changed me and what my life looked like before and after I started having a real relationship with Him. I've shared my testimony a couple of times, but this event coming up is extra special to me. Mom passed away in her home on Franklin Rd and later it was bought by Judson Baptist Church (next door) and it's being used now for several different incredible ministries. Helping Hands and also this Recovery Church ministry (Recovery Church Nashville). So many people are being helped through these and other groups right there in Mom's old house. I know she'd be so happy to know that so much good is coming out of there. And it means so much to me and my family, too. So, if you're in Nashville and want to hear my story or if you need help in recovery for addiction, please come and talk to someone here or anywhere that offers recovery assistance. God loves you and you don't have to do this alone! I hope to see you there.

*There is room there for the 1st 100 people.

Tonight's Message: Two Ways To Live

"The Christian gospel is simple enough to be explained in a short presentation like this. And yet it is a message that has changed the lives of millions, and been studied by many of the greatest mins of the last two thousand years."

1. God is the ruler of the world. He made the world. He made us to rule His good world, giving thanks and honor to Him.

2. We all reject God as our ruler by running our own lives our own way. By rebelling against God’s way, we damage ourselves, each other, and the world.

3. God won’t let us rebel against him forever. God’s punishment for rebellion is death and judgment.

4. Because of His love, God sent his Son into the world: the man Jesus Christ. Jesus always lived under God’s rule. But Jesus took our punishment by dying in our place.

5. God raised Jesus to life again as the ruler and judge of the world. Jesus has conquered death, now brings forgiveness and new life, and will return in glory.

6. There are only two ways to live.

Our way
reject God as ruler
live our own way
damaged by our rebellion
facing death and judgment

God’s new way
submit to Jesus as our ruler
rely on Jesus’ death and resurrection
forgiven by God
receive a new life that lasts forever

So, which way do you want to live?

Tonight's Message: Last But Not Least

The last of the 10 commandments tells us, “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor (Exodus 20:17 NIV).” This command may be last, but it is certainly not least. More than any other, it exposes the inner workings of our heart and mind before the gaze of God. Before we ever get to stealing, or adultery, our imaginations have likely already laid claim on what belongs to someone else and pictured it as our own (James 1:15-16).

Coveting is another way to talk about desiring or wanting something. In the Christian tradition to desire or want something or someone is not bad in and of itself. Yet wanting for ourselves something or someone that God has given to another person, the husband or wife or house and home and goods of our neighbor is always wrong.

We can desire good things. We can desire bad things. We can desire good things in bad ways. Wisdom is needed in the Christian life for sorting this out. As Leslie Jamison writes, “We all seek, we all compensate, we all crave, but we don’t all seek in the same ways and the seeking doesn’t always punish the seeker.” As recovering addicts and alcoholics we know all too well the costs of pursuing peace and happiness in the wrong places (or people). Be curious about your desire: Why do you think your neighbors’ stuff, or the next drink or drug will satisfy you? Let this internal interrogation take you on a journey closer to God. “Without desire, we would cease to be human. Without God as desire’s ultimate end, we become inhumane.”

Asaph’s words invite us to turn our eyes to Jesus as our ultimate desire. “Whom have I in heaven but you? I desire you more than anything on earth. My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; He is mine forever (Psalm 73:25-26, NLT).
