ptorres — Tue, 06 Dec 2022 16:05:15 +0000

Sometimes the opinions and beliefs of the world around us—culture, religion, and even our own experiences—may feel like truth. But when they don’t align with scripture, how can we find the will to release those beliefs and cling to the unchanging word of God?

Anchored to Truth

ptorres — Tue, 29 Nov 2022 17:40:32 +0000

A ship makes it through a storm by dropping anchor, which makes it immovable in the wind and waves. In the same way, there are places where we can drop anchor when the storms of life try to take us off course. God’s Word says that we will have troubles, but we will have peace when stay close to Him. With Jesus, we can be equipped to not just survive the storms but stand firm in them!

Children are gifts from God. As parents, we have the special role and privilege of training them in the ways of the Lord—equipping them to fulfill their purpose in the earth.

ptorres — Tue, 29 Nov 2022 17:57:50 +0000

ptorres — Thu, 15 Sep 2022 17:42:31 +0000

Embracing the developmental process is an important part of walking in our purpose. God places us in different environments throughout our lives to develop our gifts, skills and character. He wants us to grow to become more like Him so that we represent Him well in a world that desperately needs Him. How do we begin to cultivate our unique God-given qualities so that He may be glorified wherever we go? Find out in part four of True North.

Stop Limping and RUN

ptorres — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 17:55:45 +0000

We all have the same purpose: glorify God and enjoy Him forever. To walk that out, each of us has been given a uniquely specific blend of gifts, talents and abilities to use wherever God leads us. While our purpose remains the same, our calling can change throughout the various seasons of our lives. God wants us to trust Him, allowing Him to lead us on the journey He mapped long ago. But how do we begin to run in God’s perfect plan for our lives? Learn more in part two of True North!

Compassion

ptorres — Tue, 02 Aug 2022 16:36:17 +0000

Before Jesus left the earth, He set an expectation for His followers to live according to His example. When we represent Christ well, we give others the opportunity to experience His true nature and draw closer to Him. Compassion is one of the characteristics that attracts people to God. It is looking beyond our own needs to see the needs of others, learning to value them above ourselves. Let’s begin to engage the world with hearts of compassion and demonstrate the love of the Father to everyone we encounter!

Attentiveness

ptorres — Wed, 27 Jul 2022 16:23:32 +0000

We are living in a world where a lot of people feel lonely and unwanted, wondering if they even matter. But we have the opportunity to Be Like Jesus, to meet people where they are and let them know they are seen and valued. Jesus noticed the people who others missed, those who were often pushed aside. The enemy’s goal is to discourage and distract us from paying attention to what truly matters, but there are small things we can do to reflect the light of our Savior. You never know how one encounter can shift someone’s life. Find out how to grow in your attentiveness in part three of our current series.

It’s not always easy to build relationships with people whose lifestyles aren’t like ours. How do we love our neighbors when all we see are differences? Jesus engaged the culture of His day with love, grace and the truth of the gospel. He invites us to do the same—to live in a way that glorifies God and open our lives to connect with others so we may inspire them to want to know Jesus for themselves. We’re breaking down what that looks like in part four of our Open Doors series!

Tune into the first message of the new year as Pastor Dennis shares the three main things we have to let go of to move forward!

Walking in Freedom

ptorres — Thu, 25 Nov 2021 21:23:45 +0000

Jesus came not only to set us free but to help us actually walk in freedom! But stepping into the next level of life with God requires loosening your grip on old ways of thinking and habits that are keeping you stuck. For every one of the enemy’s lies you’ve believed, God has an incredible truth to replace it. And He never calls us to give up something unless He has something better. What do you need to let go of so that you can embrace the new He has for you?

A Mind Made New

ptorres — Wed, 17 Nov 2021 17:11:35 +0000

The enemy’s oldest trick is to get us to believe lies about who God is, who we are, and more. But God has given us spiritual weapons to tear down the lies, those strongholds that keep us stuck in old mindsets and from fully embracing what He has for us. He is calling us to a place of friendship, freedom, and peace. It’s available to all of us, but our minds have to be renewed. No matter where you are, you have a good Father in heaven who is ready to give you His truth. Will you receive it?

Strategic Stewardship

ptorres — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 17:51:52 +0000

Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” God owns everything and, in His kindness, entrusts us to wisely manage the resources He provides. But what exactly does it mean to be a good steward, and where do we start? And could it be that God wants us to handle money well so we can be as generous as He has been to us? In Extravagant part four, we’re giving you practical tools to partner with Him in your finances and, ultimately, be a blessing to others!

Why I Tithe

ptorres — Mon, 04 Oct 2021 16:21:32 +0000

We have a generous God! In giving us His son, Jesus, He gave us His BEST. When we come face-to-face with the selfless love of God and embrace it, we take on His nature and become givers, too. Because when we truly grasp just how much God cherishes us and then open ourselves up to Him, we will want to give as an expression of our adoration. In Extravagant part three, we’re making room for God to transform our hearts, minds and our finances so we can offer Him a worthy response to the extravagant love He has for us!

Mastering the Power of Money

ptorres — Mon, 27 Sep 2021 12:36:03 +0000

Did you know that there are two economies? There is God’s and then there is the world’s. The majority of people, including followers of Christ, have been so conditioned to live based on the world’s economic system that they never experience life in God’s economy. But it’s never too late to start living with His hand on our finances! In part two of Extravagant, find out how to master the power of money and remain under an open heaven of His blessing.

The Generous God

ptorres — Mon, 20 Sep 2021 13:21:35 +0000

There’s something about love that produces generosity. Think about it this way: God so loved the world that He GAVE… When we give, we are called to do so out of the overflow of all that He, the One who breathed life into our lungs, has given to us. When we love others, we’re generous with our time, our affection and, yes, our money—which is the number one competitor against God in our lives. To be people free from the trap of greed, we have to allow the truth of His extravagant generosity toward us to penetrate our hearts. We don’t give to make God love us, because He already does. We give because we love God, and when you love, you also give!

A Loved One Restored

ptorres — Wed, 15 Sep 2021 14:47:56 +0000

Are you praying for someone you love to receive Jesus as Savior? Many of us have felt burdened by the desire for friends and family to know Jesus as Lord. While Christ is the only One who can save, we can play a part in leading people to Him when we love them as He has loved us. How do we love a way that extends the invitation to restoration? Join us for part three of Family-ish!

Spiritual Family

ptorres — Wed, 15 Sep 2021 14:46:27 +0000

Here’s the truth: We have to get our families in order. Why? Because the first ministry God has called us to starts at home. Every family has a story. Not one of them is perfect, but even if you didn’t inherit a good family story, you can start today! Let’s pull a few more chairs up to the table of our lives and create space for spiritual family. From there, we can build more healthy families and show others what it looks like to live, love and grow together as God intended from the very beginning!

Conflict

ptorres — Mon, 26 Jul 2021 15:19:06 +0000

From the beginning of time, human beings have had to deal with conflict. There is no one on earth who hasn’t experienced it. None of us are exempt. Conflict isn’t necessarily good or bad, but there is a healthy, godly way to respond. Dr. Sam Chand shares how in part six of our Dear Church series.

Now more than ever, it’s time to stand firm in our faith. Yes, we’ve been stretched on every side—but no matter life’s challenges, if God is for us, no one can be against us. Our Father meets us where we are and gives us all we need to fulfill the purpose we were made for… In part five of Dear Church, Pastor John Jenkins shares a timely word on what it looks like to run with the horses.

Your Prayers Are Precious to God

Dear Church: Your Prayers Are Precious to God
Pastor James Meeks
July 11, 2021

Revelation 8:3 KJV

And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

Revelation 5:8 KJV

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

The Precious Prayers of the Church:

Satan does not want you to pray.

Satan does not want you to know how valuable your prayers are to God.

1. Revelation 8:1-4

2. Revelation 5:8

1. There are prayers that are answered right away.

Isaiah 38:1-5 KJV

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not live. Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto the Lord, and said, Remember now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying, Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.

Those are the prayers we like.

2. There are prayers that have timing issues.

3. There are prayers where God has something better in store for us.

I Am Free

ptorres — Mon, 10 May 2021 16:46:56 +0000

Just in case no one’s told you lately: You are enough. At some point or another, we’ve all felt like we don’t measure up, like we need to do more to be accepted and loved. The truth is that you’ve already been set free as a child of God! You don’t have to compare or compete with anyone else; you can show up authentically in all the Father has called you to be. He created you uniquely, and it’s time to embrace who you are in Him.

I Am Wanted and Loved

ptorres — Mon, 03 May 2021 12:26:48 +0000

Who, or what, defines you? Many of us have allowed things like possessions, accomplishments, family, and sex to determine our value. But we were created to live from a place of identity and significance rather than spending our whole lives searching for it. God the Father designed and chose you—yes, you—to be here, and He’s the only one who gets to define you. What does He have to say? You were made on purpose for a purpose, and your presence matters. You are wanted and loved!

Child of God

ptorres — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 16:25:41 +0000

We live in a world that tells us we have to prove our worth, but if God’s greatness is going to be emancipated in us, we have to take hold of this truth: We are His beloved children! The reality is that it’s impossible for us to walk in an identity that we don’t fully believe, and we have an enemy who’s actually afraid we’ll discover who we are in Christ. As God’s children, we don’t have to try to earn our value. He created us, which means we’re already loved and accepted—and that will always be enough!

I Am Restored

ptorres — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 16:59:47 +0000

Can we be real with each other for a moment? Have you ever felt like you’ve disappointed God or somehow disqualified yourself from His purpose for your life? You’re not alone! We’ve all been there, but the truth is that we’re never too far gone for the God who sent His own Son to restore our relationship with Him. Join us as we illustrate an incredibly powerful moment of restoration between Peter and Jesus, which we believe will also restore fresh purpose in you!

Celebrate Jesus with us during a special Easter presentation as we remember His life, death, and resurrection!

Hearing God’s Voice Through Prayer

ptorres — Tue, 30 Mar 2021 15:20:30 +0000

We have a God who loves to speak to us, and we were made to hear Him. Communication with God is key, because much of what He says effects what comes next in our lives. So, it’s important that we understand the ways in which He speaks. One of those ways is through prayer. Let’s take time to learn the principles of how to hear His voice in prayer so we can fulfill the purpose He has for us!

God, Is That You?

ptorres — Tue, 23 Mar 2021 13:55:01 +0000

To walk in the greatness that God wants to free within us, we have to hear His voice and know that He is speaking! How does He speak? Through His Word, prayer, dreams and visions, and words of prophecy given through other people. In today’s message, we’re talking about how to discern whether or not God is actually speaking versus our own wants, the enemy, or someone else’s narrative for our lives. It’s our desire that when you ask the question, “God, is that you?” that you would be able to hear Him clearly in the unique way He created you!

Forgiving Myself

ptorres — Tue, 02 Mar 2021 16:33:50 +0000

While on the journey to emancipating God’s greatness, letting go of unforgiveness is an essential part of the process. Many of us have not forgiven ourselves for our pasts, but holding onto sins, failures, and mistakes only hinders us from living in the fullness of God’s destiny. The reality is: We don’t have to stay stuck. It’s time to toss the bag, to let go the weight we’ve been carrying, and walk in the freedom of His love!

Forgiving God

ptorres — Mon, 22 Feb 2021 14:44:42 +0000

We have a God who wants to set us free so we can live the life Jesus purchased for us to the fullest! We also have an enemy who sets traps of offense to keep us bound. One of the main areas he attempts to cause offense is actually between us and God. We don’t talk about it often in church, but we’re going there. Why? Because God has placed His greatness in us, and it can only be emancipated when we open our hearts to Him.

Forgiving Others

Value People

ptorres — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 17:05:49 +0000

We’re living in a time when many of us have been elevating ourselves and our points-of-view rather than valuing others. As followers of Jesus, we are to meant to be salt and light, bringing the flavor and beauty of Christ to a lost and dying world. How exactly? We have to be intentional about valuing others above ourselves. When we begin to see people as the Father does and remember the grace He’s shown us, we can impact the world for His glory—fulfilling the very purpose we were given from the start.

A Community of Greatness

ptorres — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 19:12:15 +0000

The journey of emancipating greatness was never meant to be a solo one. We were created for community! We need one another now more than ever, and living in isolation isn’t a part of God’s plan. We are better together, called to use our gifts to help one another along the way. Let’s link up!

Preparing for Greatness

ptorres — Mon, 25 Jan 2021 19:58:50 +0000

God is leading us forward into the emancipation of the greatness He’s placed inside of each and every one us. It has always been His plan to rule the earth in partnership with His people, for us to shine His light in the world and make disciples using the gifts and dreams He’s given us. For that to happen, for us to live full of joy, satisfaction and significance, we have to get prepared—to begin walking in health so that we may reproduce greatness in others! Are you ready to dig a little deeper?

You Were Made for Something Great

ptorres — Mon, 11 Jan 2021 21:15:57 +0000

In the beginning, God created. In His very own image, He created you. You were uniquely designed, unlike anything else in all creation. Everything about you is a gift from the Father, beautifully handcrafted and thoughtfully placed inside of you. Our great God made you for great things, and He wants to see those things come to life in you!

The Stand

ptorres — Mon, 04 Jan 2021 19:37:25 +0000

Matthew 5:15 tells us: “… a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone …” We live in a world that is getting darker, in a time when more and more people are hopeless, depressed, and getting lost as they try to find their way. God has sent us to be the lampstand, to allow His light to shine bright upon us for all the world to see! He wants to use you to guide His people to Himself. Will you stand for Him?

Power of Joy

ptorres — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 15:00:34 +0000

Joy is not a feeling. It isn’t something that’s based on our finances, health, or any other present circumstances; it’s a fruit of the Holy Spirit. Because Christ came, even in the midst of difficult times like the one we’re currently living in, we’re able to experience the joy of His presence forever! The question is: how do we activate it? Find out in part three of our current series.

Engaging the Silence

ptorres — Tue, 08 Dec 2020 15:32:50 +0000

Have you ever been in a season when life wasn’t turning out the way you thought and God seemed silent—like He was nowhere to be found? It’s easy to have faith when everything is going well, but how do we trust God when we’re waiting for the fulfillment of His promises? We remember who God is and all He’s done. We say “yes” to the opportunity to choose faith, to trust that the same God who was with us in the past is in our midst even now and will be with us in the future. He’s the same yesterday, today and forever. Don’t let your heart forget that He is always good!

Prophets and Promises

ptorres — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 18:19:46 +0000

Many Christians set aside the four weeks leading up to Christmas to celebrate Advent. It’s a time of remembrance and expectant waiting for the coming of Jesus Christ. During this season, we are reminded that in the midst of what’s happening in our world, in the good and not-so-good, we can rest knowing that hope is not lost. We can experience the fullness of peace and joy as we reflect on the fulfillment of prophecy—that the promised Messiah came and is coming again! He is Immanuel, God with us, and He’s still at work in all things!

One Nation Under God

When we say “yes” to Jesus, each of us becomes a different person. We are born again, belonging to a nation higher than the one where we physically reside. When we get saved, we become a part of God’s kingdom. We are now citizens of heaven, sons and daughters of the king of kings! So, what’s our role as Christians living in the world, especially in times like these? Let’s talk about it.

God created mankind in His very own image, and He sent Jesus to shed His blood on the cross for us all. As followers of Christ, we are ultimately here to shine His light so others may know Him. In spite of the devil’s never-ending attempts to divide us, the Bible tells us that our God makes the whole body fit together. So, even in our differences and disagreements, we can still be unified. When we choose to come together in His love, incredible things have the chance to unfold. It’s time to raise a standard against the enemy and show the world the beauty and power in unity!

Sexual Healing

jbaffrey — Mon, 19 Oct 2020 18:23:45 +0000

We live in a world where many believe there are no consequences to sex outside of God’s original design. However, we know that isn’t true, as many have suffered pain, abuse, and shame regarding sexuality. But it was not this way from the beginning. Before sin entered the world, sex was pure. The blessing is that healing is available to every one of us, and it is possible to walk in the freedom Jesus wants to give us.

God’s original design for the gift of sex didn’t include pornography, but the enemy loves to take what God intended for good and use it for evil. Pornography has become more readily available than ever, and many are being socially conditioned to believe that there’s no problem with it. But the truth is that we are worth so much more than our bodies and our desires. We were created by God in His image, and He longs for us to see ourselves and others as valuably as He does.

Sex is a gift. While it has been defiled and broken, the truth is that God invented sex! It’s a part of His original design, and He tells us Himself that it is very good. Though many live in guilt and shame surrounding the topic, it was never meant to be that way. God created sex as an expression of intimacy, and it was always intended to be a blessing.
