Dollars & Sense: Trust in God Completely
We are currently going through a series that is called Dollars & Sense. We have discovered some key truths about God's plan for us in relation to our money, possessions and resources. We're learning that how we handle our money reflects a lot about our relationship with God. Do we value that relationship? Do we trust Him? Do we desire to honor Him? The truth is learning to give back to God a portion of what He has given to us is less about the money and more about our faith in God. This Sunday we will be exploring this more in depth as it relates to God's plan for giving. Listen in as we explore how we are to "Trust in God Completely"...

    Weighed Down: Overcoming Pride
    Series: Weighed Down
    We're  looking at another weight that can damage our relationship with God and with others. It can also give us a distorted view of ourselves throughout each day of our lives. The weight we'll be exploring together will be "Pride." Pride happens when we place ourselves as the center of our focus rather than God. One of Satan’s best tools to move us away from God is to set our focus on ourselves. He did it in the Garden of Eden and has continued to do so through every generation. Proverbs 16:18-19 tells us that "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. It is better to be of lowly spirit with the poor than to divide the spoil with the proud." We also find that God opposes the proud. In fact, pride is sin in our lives because it focuses on SELF rather than on God. There are many passages throughout Bible that address the dangers of pride. We will look at several of these together. One example we will explore that will give us a clear illustration of pride in contrast with humility is in Luke 18:9-14.

    The Core: Intentional Unity
    Series: The Core
    We're continuing our series on "The Core" values of Refuge Church. Today we'll be focusing on "Intentional Unity". The truth of the matter is that unity has to be fought for and has to be intentional on our parts. We must be willing to fight for unity with each other and throughout the church. According to John 17, it is one of the aspects of the church that draws the world towards believing. Listen in as we explore what Godly unity looks like...

    The Core: Messy Ministry
    Series: The Core
    We're continuing our series through our Core Values! Last week we had the privilege to explore some key foundational truths to everything we do as a church.  Today we will be in Mark 2:13-17 as we discover that "Messy Ministry" is a necessary part of church life. We cannot fake it until we make it. We cannot put on a mask and pretend that everything is okay when it's not. There is no such thing as un-messy ministry. We have to allow vulnerability and a willingness to meet people at their needs. This is exactly what Jesus did. Listen in as explore "Messy Ministry" & how vulnerability enhances our bonds as a church...
