Living Generosity
City Central Church Podcast
This week, we had the privilege of hearing from Darrin Miller with a word on generosity. God is so generous to us and designed generosity to be beneficial; generous people are healthier, happier, have lower stress, improved relationships and extend their lives to others. As we grow in a deep understanding of God’s lavish love and generosity toward us, we will extend it more freely to those around us.

The Purpose of Jesus

As believers, we advance God’s kingdom through evangelism but must guard our hearts from the world so we can bear good fruit unto the Lord.

Whether we realize it or not, we have an Enemy of our soul and are in a spiritual battle, which Jesus has already one.

Overcoming Me, Myself, and I

This week, Pastor Chris taught out of Romans 15 about overcoming selfishness. Our society emphasizes self-promotion and self-focus, but God desires for us to be emptied of pride and filled with love for others. The Lord gives us tools to help defeat the Self including carrying one another’s burdens, building others up, staying in the Word and sharing the Good News.

Unity that Commands a Blessing
City Central Church Podcast
This week, Pastor Chris continued in our Romans series teaching us about God’s heart for the Church to be united. Christians can be so divided and unloving toward one another over issues that are not essential to the gospel, but there is a way forward! We can follow God’s command to love and respect one another by keeping our hearts humble, and our minds set on the primary issues of the Bible.
info_outlineThis week Pastor Chris and one of our elders, Jarrad Mock, shared the next sermon in our Romans series. Many people have wrestled with questions of salvation- am I saved? How do I know I’m saved? How do I become saved? Romans tells us we can have assurance of salvation by trusting fully in God’s grace, evaluating the fruit of our lives, and yielding to Christ.
