The Summit Church

In this message from Exodus 35, Pastor J.D. invites us to rediscover God’s purposes for our church. Like the Old Testament people of God, we are living in a moment of new beginnings; and we believe God wants to write a new chapter through the Summit. God has done great things for us, liberating us from the slavery of sin. Now he invites us to become a part of his rescue plan for our neighbors and the nations.

If there's one myth surrounding marriage that has been perpetuated by our society, it's that marriage is what completes you. Of course, Jesus refuted this idea over and over in his teachings. In this week's message from Mark and Luke, Pastor J.D. shows us the importance and implications of considering the church as family. When we take this seriously, we will realize that faithfully investing in this family will yield a harvest far beyond what we could ever imagine.

If you've ever had the unfortunate experience of discovering termites in your home, you know the frustration of realizing that surfaces that you thought were solid are actually badly damaged. Sadly, a similar thing happens in many churches when false teachers creep in unnoticed, harming a church from the inside. In this week's message from the first four verses of Jude, Pastor J.D. shows us how we see the manifestation of this kind of corruption in the church today. It is only when we are clear on what the gospel truly is that we are able to guard against this danger and preserve the faith entrusted to us.

The longing for a life of meaning and significance is a universal human desire. But too often, we end up looking in all the wrong places to create a life that matters. In this week's message from the second half of Philippians 4, Pastor Bryan shows us how the Philippian church lived lives of eternal significance, exemplified by their partnership in sharing the gospel. Their example ought to be an encouragement to us to pour out our lives for the spread of the gospel, whether in our homes, in the marketplace, or abroad.
