Spiritual Fathering
Today, Scott Williams, Pastor Emeritus at Christian Fellowship, brings a Father's Day message for the church. He discusses the significance of Father's Day and the concept of spiritual fathering within the Christian community. He encourages celebrating fathers while addressing the pain some may feel on this day. Scott advocates for older members with spiritual wisdom to mentor younger generations. By exploring God's role as a father in the Scriptures and believers' adoption as children of God, Pastor Scott highlights the importance of spiritual fatherhood in guiding and nurturing others in the faith. Father's Day can be a challenging day for many: for those who lost their dad, those who want to be, or those who have lost their kids. But there is encouragement to be had in others around you who can fill in the holes that loss brings. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

I AM | Resurrection and Life
Today, Michael Acock speaks in the final week of our Easter 2024 sermon series called "I AM." We look at the statements through the Bible, especially those in the book of John where Jesus calls himself the I AM. Centuries before these statements were written, God had revealed himself to Moses with the decisive statement “I am” or “I am who I am” in Exodus 3:14. Another way to say this is I will be who I will be. God gives a personal name that conveys His dominion over all things, the source of His power, and His eternal nature: I AM. He is the self-sufficient, self-sustaining God who was, who is, and who will be. Throughout the OT, others added to his name “I am (translated Jehovah or Lord) by adding names that clarified his character, such as Jehovah-Jireh (my provider), Jehovah Rapha (the Lord heals), Jehovah Nissi (the Lord my banner), Jehovah Shalom (the Lord our peace), Jehovah Raah (the Lord my shepherd), and more. Then in John, Jesus uses the same name (I am) in talking with the Samaritan woman, when walking on water toward the disciples’ boat, in responding to a complaint by the Pharisees, in the Garden of Gethsemane, and more. He was referring to the expressions from the OT and declaring that He is the I AM. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

We will look at the statements through the Bible, especially those in the book of John where Jesus calls himself the I AM. Centuries before these statements were written, God had revealed himself to Moses with the decisive statement “I am” or “I am who I am” in Exodus 3:14. Another way to say this is I will be who I will be. God gives a personal name that conveys His dominion over all things, the source of His power, and His eternal nature: I AM. He is the self-sufficient, self-sustaining God who was, who is, and who will be. Throughout the OT, others added to his name “I am (translated Jehovah or Lord) by adding names that clarified his character, such as Jehovah-Jireh (my provider), Jehovah Rapha (the Lord heals), Jehovah Nissi (the Lord my banner), Jehovah Shalom (the Lord our peace), Jehovah Raah (the Lord my shepherd), and more. Then in John, Jesus uses the same name (I am) in talking with the Samaritan woman, when walking on water toward the disciples’ boat, in responding to a complaint by the Pharisees, in the Garden of Gethsemane, and more. He was referring to the expressions from the OT and declaring that He is the I AM. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

I AM | Bread of Life
Today, Beth Bramstedt speaks in the second week of our Easter 2024 sermon series called "I AM." We will look at the statements through the Bible, especially those in the book of John where Jesus calls himself the I AM. Centuries before these statements were written, God had revealed himself to Moses with the decisive statement “I am” or “I am who I am” in Exodus 3:14.
