2026 BEACH RETREAT STUFF

Posted on Jun 5, 2026 in General |

 
 
 
SESSION 1
(FRIDAY NIGHT)
  • John 15
  • Genesis 1:28-29
  • We cannot be fruitful, without abiding in Christ
  • We abide in silence & solitude
      • Mark 1:35, *Mark 6:46, Luke 5:16, Luke 6:12, and Luke 9:18
      • Lectio Divina – Read a short passage, focus on one idea, ask God to reveal what he wants you to discover, commit to living out what you’ve discovered.
  • We abide by sitting with one another–and trusting Christ to speak through us
      • 2Corinthians 1:3-6
  • We abide by serving others–and trusting Christ to work through us
      • Matthew 5:14-16
  • For quiet time- what do you want God to do in your heart this week.
 
SESSION 2
(SATURDAY MORNING)
Pursing Christ (Are we Pursing Christ as much as we purse our worldly lives?)
Philippians 3        Proverbs 4:23
 
1. What are we pursing that takes our main thoughts away from Christ?
2. How can we make focus our hearts on Christ to better purse him?
3. Church camp high is a thing we see a lot with camps. How can we challenge each other to continue pursing Christ with all our hearts even after this weekend?   
 
 
SESSION 3 
(SATRUDAY EVENING)
  • Acts 28:1-10
  • Did God send the storm? Satan? Coincidence. Either way, God worked it together for Good and protected Paul. Romans 8:28
  • The island of Malta is 85% Christian 2000 years later. What might have felt like a detour or even the end of the road, was something God used not only for Paul’s, but for the people on the island of Malta. Some of the people who live there can trace the lineage of their faith back to the day that Paul landed on the island. 
  • We abide by sharing Christ with others, and trusting God to use what we offer!
  • We can’t get deep without discomfort.  We are being invited to trust God through discomfort, difficulty, and desperate circumstances. 
  • We can abide with Christ as we share our the gospel or encourage people with God’s word, and trust Him to use what we offer. 
  • Ask God to help you be bold as you step out and share the gospel with people that God has put in your path. 
 
SESSION 4 
(SUNDAY MORNING)
 
In your journal on Saturday Night, reflect on these questions and prepare to share them with one another on Sunday morning:
1) What’s one thing that God has made clear to you this weekend?
2) What’s one thing you’ve learned about your self this weekend?

Do Not Provoke One Another
  • “Let us not become conceited, provoking one another…” (Galatians 5:26a)
Do Not Envy One Another

Clearly, the most common phrase in this list is “love one another,” but really all of the verses are about loving one another—because love is an action, and because all of God’s commands can be summarized as loving God and loving your neighbor (Matthew 22:37-40; Romans 13:9-10; Galatians 5:14). Living out these verses in community is how we can love—and be loved—by one another.

I AM – GOOD SHEPHERD

Posted on Apr 9, 2025 in General |

 
​1 “Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. 5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” 6 Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
7 Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
14 “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father —and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life —only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”
John 10:1-18

VOLUNTEER FORM

WHAT IS FAMILY MINISTRY

In some ways, Family Ministry is simply the new church word for Children’s Ministry. Functionally, much of what we do is no different than what we’ve always done. We want to disciple children in the way of Jesus.
Philosophically, however, the shift to Family Ministry is born out of our desire to partner with families and set them up for success as they continue the conversations that we start as a church. Today’s families come in all shapes and sizes. But we acknowledge something that all modern American families share in common–we’re all busy; maybe too busy! Children today are involved in more extra curricular activities than ever before. Rather than compete with your busy schedule and make church activities one more category on your list of weekly activities, our desire is to partner with parents to help them continue discipleship at home as they go from school, to the ballfield, to dance, to meetings, to dinner, to bedtime, and whatever else they have scheduled, before doing it all again the next day. 

How do we do that? We start the conversation on Sunday mornings and equip you with resources to continue the conversation at home. Each week we send home a devotion sheet with a few conversation starters. Mealtimes, car time, and bed time are some of the best times for these conversations. When you’re not sure where to focus with your children, consult the guide that we provide.

 
There’s a lot more to it, but that’s the basic idea. If you have any questions, send us an email, and we’ll set up a time to chat.

WORSHIP LYRICS 1/8/25

Posted on Jan 8, 2025 in General |

Gratitude

All my words fall short
I got nothing new
How could I express
All my gratitude?
 
I could sing these songs
As I often do
But every song must end
And You never do
 
So I throw up my hands
And praise You again and again
‘Cause all that I have is a hallelujah
Hallelujah
And I know it’s not much
But I’ve nothing else fit for a King
Except for a heart singing hallelujah
Hallelujah
 
I’ve got one response
I’ve got just one move
With my arm stretched wide
I will worship You
 
So I throw up my hands
And praise You again and again
‘Cause all that I have is a hallelujah
Hallelujah
And I know it’s not much
But I’ve nothing else fit for a King
Except for a heart singing hallelujah
Hallelujah
 
So come on, my soul
Oh, don’t you get shy on me
Lift up your song
‘Cause you’ve got a lion inside of those lungs
Get up and praise the Lord
 
Oh come on, my soul
Oh, don’t you get shy on me
Lift up your song
‘Cause you’ve got a lion inside of those lungs
Get up and praise the Lord
 
Come on, my soul
Oh, don’t you get shy on me
Lift up your song
‘Cause you’ve got a lion inside of those lungs
Get up and praise the Lord, hey
 
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord
 
So I throw up my hands
Praise You again and again
‘Cause all that I have is a hallelujah
Hallelujah
And I know it’s not much
But I’ve nothing else fit for a King
Except for a heart singing hallelujah
Hallelujah
