• "Living As An Act of Worship" - Jim Colledge

  Sunday, January 29, 2012

  Continuing in the short series on Worship, Jim Colledge this week teaches from the apostle Paul and his letter to the Romans instructing them how to live for Christ. Paul writes through the first several chapters of his letter on the specific ways in which we can live for Christ - not just some of the time, but all of the time. And with all of our being, our talents and our bodies. Does my life reflect Christ in all that I do? Am I compartmentalizing my life - some compartments for Christ and some for me? Enjoy the clear instruction from Pastor Colledge from the book of Romans on Living As An Act of Worship.

  Sunday, January 15, 2012

  Continuing with part two of the series "Acts of Worship," Jim Colledge contrasts two different references to giving - from Malachi and David's words from 1 Chronicles in the Old Testament and the Apostle Paul speaking to the Corinthians in the New Testament.

  Sunday, December 11, 2011

  Continuing in the Advent series "All I Want for Christmas...", this week's message is titled "A Little Joy." Jim Colledge teaches this week from John, Chapter 1 and explains how God - through Christ, the baby born on Christmas - is the source of true joy.

Through the acceptance of God's Christmas Gift in the person of Jesus Christ - the peace of Christmas. Listen as Pastor Lile guides us to be peacemakers and to bring "A Little Peace..." this Christmas through Commitment, Compassion and Courage.

• "Think Intelligently, Live Genuinely" - Jim Colledge

  Sunday, November 27, 2011

  As we come to the conclusion of the series from 1 Peter, Jim Colledge teaches from Chapter 5, verses 8-14. How are we to conduct ourselves in a world that seems to be fighting against us? Peter writes in his letter that we will face attacks but there should be no doubt that the battle is a spiritual battle - not a battle against people or things. But we can resist Satan by being prepared and alert and wearing the armor of God, have faith in the unseen but promised - and know the truth. A challenging message and yet encouraging thanks to the grace of God through Christ!

Learning more about God's Word is admirable, necessary even in our Christian life - but are there changes required from that study? Should we embrace those changes? Pastor Jim Colledge explores 1 Peter Chapter 4 in Part 1 of this mini-series within the broader study of Peter.
