RENEW Vision 2.0 | Pastor Chris Heller

Vision Sunday | February 13, 2022

Pastor Chris will provide an update on the Renew Bible Church vision and share what God has been doing over the past two years. He'll also share some new and exciting info for the future.

 

RESOLVED | Last Days | 2nd Peter (pt 5)

Resolved | Part 5 | Pastor Chris Heller

This week, we will resolve to finish our hike through the book of 2 Peter (3:1-18). We have heard about the promises we’ve been given, seen the provision we’ve been offered, noted the protection we will need to filter out the lies, and now we will grapple with the perspective we will be given in light of the final download of God's plan coming in the ‘last days.’

As we witness the state of the world and note the signs of the times, we can find comfort in light of the knowledge of the promise of an imminent return of Christ. I trust you are looking forward to Peter's instruction about how we should live in light of the last days.

RESOLVED | Scam Artists | 2nd Peter (pt 4)

Resolved | Part 4 | Pastor Chris Heller

 

Last week, we were assured by Peter that no scripture is a product of cleverly devised tales, but instead, inspired by the very breath of God. This week, Peter focuses in on the false teachers of his day in order to expose their lies, their agendas, their ways, and their coming punishment.

If you’ve ever been scammed, you know how frustrating that can be! This Sunday, we will learn some characteristics to watch for that will keep us from falling into the scam artists' deceptive and cunning ways.

RESOLVED | Carried Along | 2nd Peter (pt 3)

Resolved | Part 3 | Pastor Chris Heller

 

Last week, we went out of our way to commit to memory "VKSSGBL", the seven qualities Peter was determined to spend the remainder of his life reminding the church. This Sunday, we will continue our series with an account the apostle shares of his experience of majestic proportions.

Join us this week as we learn ‘the filter’ which Peter desires all believers to use with respect to their trust and reception of the scriptures. Have you ever heard someone say “I can’t believe that” or “can the Bible really be trusted?” If so, this is your week to gather a more informed approach to that dynamic!

 

RESOLVED | Supplement Your Faith | 2nd Peter (pt 2)

Resolved | Part 2 | Pastor Chris Heller

 

Last week, our 2 Peter series began with a message of grace and peace being multiplied to our faith through the knowledge of God and His very great and precious promises. This week, we will look at 2 Peter 1:5-15, where we will be challenged to supplement that faith with seven specific qualities that Peter is determined to remind the church of that will keep them from failing.

Join us Sunday as we enter ‘the kitchen’ and build on the ingredients Peter calls on us to supplement our faith with!

RESOLVED | The Road Less Traveled | 2nd Peter (pt 1)

Resolved | Part 1 | Pastor Chris Heller

 

This week we will begin our highly anticipated journey through the book of Second Peter! (2 Peter 1:1-4)

Join us as we hike up onto the rock of God’s great promises, traverse the many warnings throughout the valley of error found in false teaching, and then grow in grace as we climb the pinnacle of spiritual living that is found from living in the light of His return.

We are so excited to build our RESOLVE as we enter a new year in this precious and very great book of scripture!

REFLECTIONS | Gold For Bronze | 1st Kings

Reflections | New Year's Sermon | Pastor Chris Heller

As we begin a new year, it always seems appropriate to reflect back on the previous one. This Sunday, in a sermon from 1 Kings entitled “REFLECTIONS,” we will look into the proverbial mirror of this past year in order to glean insight into the coming one.

Prepare to be inspired to not settle in the new year for the ‘bronze’ of what YOU feel is best, but instead pursue the ‘gold’ of what GOD says is best. May we exchange those all-too-common desires for a kingdom on earth for a higher, more excellent pursuit -- the kingdom of heaven!

Looking forward to a fresh new year!

RESOUND | The Response of Worship | Luke (pt 4)

Resound | Part 4 | Pastor Jon Adams

Merry Christmas! This Sunday, we have reason to celebrate as we gather to cap off a month of worship. That’s what this December sermon series has been all about -- learning to “worthship” and laud the name of Jesus!

As we continue looking at Luke 2, we’ll examine one more aspect of worship -- the response of worship. Most of us know Luke for the parts of the story that we’ve studied so far -- Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem, the birth of Christ, the shepherds. But there’s more to Jesus’ birth than that. We’ll travel to a few locations, including a king’s palace and the temple of God, to find responses to Jesus now that Immanuel, "God with us", has arrived.

We will examine what responses God desires from us in worship, and we’ll have one more opportunity to laud his name together this Christmas season.

RESOUND | The Call to Worship | Luke (pt 3)

Resound | Part 3 | The Purpose of Worship

In the first two weeks of our Christmas series, we learned the importance of both our heart and our attitude in worship. This week, we will renew our understanding of the purpose of worship.

Why did God design us for worship?  Is it just for His deserving glory, or do we somehow benefit in our worship of Him as well?

Join us this Sunday as we continue our walk through the first two chapters of the gospel of Luke and the events taking place in the little town of Bethlehem. "Come and worship, come and worship, worship Christ the newborn king!"  But why?  Let’s rediscover the answer this week.

RESOUND | Attitude of Worship | Luke (pt 2)

Resound | Part 2 | Pastor Chris Heller

 

Last week, we embraced the concept of WORTHship by reflecting on ‘the heart of worship.’ God wants us to echo holy from our heart!

This week, we will continue our study in Luke 1:39-80 with 'the attitude of worship.' How do you come before a king? Does our mood matter?

Join us as we continue our Christmas series, RESOUND “Echo Holy!” Have you listened to the song yet? Have you picked your own worship song of the month?

See you Sunday! (Hint, hint . . . come with a joyful attitude!!)
