Life is shorter than we think and more significant that we know. Are you living your life on accident or on purpose? What will you be remembered by? Are you living for what matters most to you? Two pivotal conversations with Jesus openely point us in the direction of our purpose here on earth. Today, Jesus is calling us to a focused and undistracted life, to live for what matters most.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In this message, we discover that during seasons of silence God is still working.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In this message we uncover the many ways that God has spoken throughout history and is speaking today.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In this message, we raise the sign posts of partnering with God while we’re here on earth. As the church, we are partners who extend the wisdom and beauty of heaven here on earth.
This message is also the spiritual launching of the swamp rabbit property in Greenville, South Carolina.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In this message, we unearth and explore what the word “greater” meant each time it was used in the Gospel of John.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In culture, if we don’t know something, the human tendency is to remain quiet and to try and make sure that no one else knows that you don’t know something. In the kingdom of God, not knowing something and asking questions about it serves as a sign that you know who and whose you are.
|| Chris Armfield ||
In the presence of earthly trouble Jesus offers people the present tense reality of His Father’s eternal influence in their lives.
|| Oliver Wong ||
In the Upper Room Jesus was not only announcing his death, but also the death of the Old Covenant Law. Under the law God’s people could draw near but never draw close to the Father. What does it mean to live in relationship with the Father and not religion? What does it mean to live in the intimate living room of God?
|| Oliver Wong ||
At his final meal on earth, Jesus sat down with his closest friends along with his betrayer. In this intimate exchange we see come to see just how Jesus responds to his enemies.
|| Chris Armfield ||
If standing above the rest of the crowd was rightfully available, and serving was also an opportunity, which would you choose? Jesus was able to be the most influential human in history, and yet he chose to serve in every opportunity that arose. How might understanding the purpose and drive behind Jesus’ words and actions affect how we interact with those around us?
|| Oliver Wong ||
Jesus’ public ministry comes to a close with the results Isaiah prophesied years prior: the Light shined in the darkness but the darkness couldn’t comprehend it. Jesus performed many signs yet many didn’t believe.
In this study we look at what causes us to see Jesus and what causes us to miss him, even when he’s standing right in front of us.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Expectations are part of life. When a person isn’t aware of others, or their own expectations, life can become quite difficult. This is true in our relationship with God; expectations matter.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Trouble is part of living this life, even for faithful followers of Christ. If this is true, what level of comfort can we expect from God in the midst of the troubles we face?
|| Oliver Wong ||
The Jews and Greeks that flocked to Jesus on Palm Sunday actually had more in common than they thought: they both looked to right king, but wanted to put him on the wrong throne. If you long to see the Kingdom of God, listen in as we unpack this portion of John 12 and see Jesus reveal the true and simple Gospel.
|| Guest Speaker ||
Justin McRoberts, a well known singer/songwriter, speaker, and co-author of the book Prayer: Forty Days of Practice, shares with us what it looks like to not only pursue the practice of prayer, but to find the essence of it.
|| Chris Armfield || 1 Corinthians 12-13, Romans 15 ||
There’s a serious myth and misunderstanding in culture, “We can only share when we have more than enough for ourselves.” Jesus demonstrates and teaches the opposite reality, that we are most whole and “at home” in God when we give ourselves away to others.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Are you in a season of uprootedness? To one degree or another, life is in a constant state of change. What would it look like to see new seasons, new chapters, and uprootedness as opportunity to find true rootedness in Jesus and others?
|| Chris Armfield ||
In this message, we discover things that have already been true long before we ever imagined they were possible.
|| Chris Armfield ||
It seems that everything on earth and above the earth has been measured. Measurement is used to calculate the value of something. However, God is immeasurable. What can the immeasurability of God reveal about how we approach every moment of our lives?
|| Oliver Wong ||
Just before Jesus was crucified, Mary of Bethany poured out $25,000 worth of perfume on his feet. The disciples complained that her offering was wasteful, but Jesus corrected them. This week, Oliver teaches on Mary’s story, Leviticus and what makes an offering pleasing to the Lord.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Have you ever wondered why God seems to work in some cases while in others it seems like He doesn’t work at all? Could it be that Jesus provides how the “supernatural works” actually work in the story of Lazarus’s resurrection? We believe He does just that!
|| Chris Armfield ||
What is the appropriate relational, emotional, and mental response to all kinds of pain in people’s lives? In this sermon, we see that Jesus models perfect presence in the midst of one of life’s most excruciating pains.
|| Oliver Wong ||
When Martha seeks out Jesus to resurrect her brother Lazarus, Jesus declares, “I AM the life and the resurrection.” This powerful statement changes everything about the way we see life and death.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Death was not meant to be a part of life, it is the result of sin in a broken world. Jesus declares that it is for our good that we witness the death of his friend Lazarus so we might understand the meaning of resurrected life. In the final sign performed in the book of John, Jesus demonstrates that we are not only sick people being made well, but that we are dead people being raised to life.
|| Timothy Bayne ||
Carl Gustav Boberg had an encounter with the Lord, searched the scriptures to understand that very encounter and went on to write a poem that would later become the 2nd greatest hymn of all time. How Great Thou Art would bring millions of people to salvation all around the world over the next 100 years, all because he responded to what God was already stirring within him. What would happen if we chose to allow the Holy Spirit to birth a doxology from the theology that is already being spoken to us?
|| Chris Armfield ||
Have you ever wondered why so many people were offended by Jesus? What if it was more about personality than grace or truth? Could it be possible that personality plays a bigger part in people believing in Jesus than we might realize?
|| Oliver Wong ||
Jesus is the Good Shepherd who lays his life down for his sheep. He is the Eternal Shepherd in whom we find our only true security. Listen in with us as we further discuss how to be both the sheep and the shepherd.
|| Chris Armfield ||
What happens to people when they’ve been filled with the power of the Holy Spirit?
|| Chris Armfield ||
The Good Shepherd is defined by laying his life down for others. What is your life defined by?
|| Chris Armfield ||
God, as our shepherd, doesn’t miss a thing. He sees you, knows you, and speaks to you, personally by name. He protects, and he provides for you.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Rejection, shame, and disconnection are some of the most painful experiences of our lives. In our study of John 9, we find a blind man who has been saved and healed, but rejected by his church and family, all in the same day. Though it was never His design, how has the Lord used loneliness in your life to strengthen your love for Him?
|| Oliver Wong ||
John 9 tells a powerful story of a blind man who was SENT before he fully believed. His sermon was simple: I was blind but now I see. Join us as we spend time as a family sharing stories of what God is doing in our midst.
|| Chris Armfield ||
God seeing you and knowing you is the most important thing about you.
|| Chris Armfield ||
The death and resurrection of Jesus opened heaven here, now and forever.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Jesus didn’t come to abolish the law on adultery but to fulfill the law through the forgiveness of the woman in John 8. We stand before a Great High Priest who gives a favorable verdict to the guilty.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus is the Light of the World. People come alive wherever He is.
|| CITYLIGHTS Elder, Stephen Lewis ||
Sometimes we can find ourselves looking for Jesus in so many different places, even when he is right in front of us.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Is it possible that your intellect, interpretations, and traditions would be rebuked by Jesus?
|| Chris Armfield ||
There are only two paths, darkness and light. There is no gray area.
|| Oliver Wong ||
This week we took some time to focus on our vision at CITYLIGHTS. We exist to EQUIP people to be and make disciples who EXALT Jesus and EXTEND His kingdom right where they are. Listen in as we walk through 1 Cor. 3 to be reminded of our mission here on earth: to be and make disciples of Jesus.
|| Chris Armfield (feat. Darelle Dove) ||
Christ is at the core of who you are becoming.
|| Chris Armfield ||
God has the vision and the skills to take the raw materials of your life and use them to create a masterpiece.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Our invitation to a new spiritual family was never and exit from our physical family. The scriptures invite and send redeemed individuals back to their families to redeem their family lines.
|| Oliver Wong ||
This week we concluded our study in John 6 and responded with Communion. Christmas and Communion both proclaim the good news to us; that Jesus paid the greatest price so we could have the greatest gift of His presence.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Levitical Law, the Arc of the Covenant, Temple Requirements, and even the Crucifixion were each heavenly designs of the same end; to return His people into the presence of God. Let’s follow our forefathers of the faith to His presence through the gift of hunger.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Since The Fall God has been restoring our world through family. Family has always been God’s method to calling His children not only to belief, but to belonging. Join with us as we celebrate Miracle hill Foster Care in our city and open our families to those needing belonging and belief.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus came to demonstrate and communicate how to have eternal life. Eternal life is free, but it might cost you everything.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Have you ever experienced suffering for doing right? After a long day of ministry the disciples experience a dark night in the storm. Their struggle isn’t wasted and they arrive in Capernaum with a new revelation of who Jesus is.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus’ public life and his prayer life cannot be understood apart from one another.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Why do some people see God everywhere and some can’t find him anywhere? Jesus teaches we don’t see with our eyes, we see with our hearts. What does it look like to seek God with our whole heart that we might find Him?
|| Chris Armfield ||
If what you’re looking at doesn’t look to Christ then it’s probably counterfeit.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus’ authority given to Him by His Father doesn’t make Him a legalistic leader, but instead, a kind king.
|| Chris Armfield ||
God gave Jesus the authority to judge everything. Do you know where you stand in the light of His judgment?
|| Oliver Wong ||
From Creation until now, God has been working to restore what He has made and working to make all things new. We have been invited to bring that very same new life into our world, but can only do that in a partnership of power with the Father. Will we work alone in toil or work with Him in power?
|| Oliver Wong ||
As citizens of Heaven we are called to live a life full of hope. A hope that isn’t found in our past, our circumstance, or our failures, but in the finishing hope of Jesus. When we see our lives through the lens of Christ, we see a life full of faith, hope, and love.
|| Chris Armfield ||
The marriage of what God has said and what He is saying is the tension in which all people of faith in Jesus must live.
|| Chris Armfield ||
If you believe in Jesus then you belong to Him. There are so many parts to finding your identity in Christ, but one of the most essential parts is being a priest.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Revival doesn’t come through miracles, but through marriage with Jesus. Samaria believed in Jesus because of the Samaritan woman’s testimony of faith, not by any signs or wonders.
|| Oliver Wong ||
The Foundation of this World is connecting with People through Community and Oneness with God.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus demonstrates three significant paradigm shifts on Earth because of the kingdom of His Father.

|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus meets people right where they are, but He never leaves them the same way they were found.
|| Oliver Wong ||
Our journey in life isn’t proving our strength, but discovering our weakness. We receive life when we seek Jesus at the cross.
|| Oliver Wong ||
John the Baptist BELIEVED in the ministry of Jesus. When approached by his disciples on his popularity in comparison to Jesus’ following, John simply points right back to the Son, recognizing himself only as the moon that reflects His light.
|| Chris Armfield ||
The kingdom of God does now describe an ancient reality nor does it describe some heavenly day in the distant future. When Jesus was teaching, he was teaching about a kingdom that was present, to be lived in the here and now.
|| Chris Armfield ||
Jesus demonstrates how to live under God’s approval, and in the process, He put’s religion to death.
|| Oliver Wong || When Jesus cleanses the temple, He’s getting everything out of the way so that He can love His bride.
