The ritual of The Lord’s Supper (sometimes called communion) was the only ritual given to us by Jesus when He walked this Earth. He affirmed Baptism but He didn’t initiate it. We have other rituals in the scriptures like the laying on of hands, anointing with oil, and confession of sins but again others gave those rituals to us. This makes the Lord’s Supper unique. The more we study the Lord’s Supper, we are reminded that it is much like a finely cut diamond twirling in the Sun, every turn giving off a different sparkle. Throughout 2024, the Teaching Team will be sharing a different facet of the Lord’s Supper on the first Sunday of each month.
We are starting a new series entitled EKKLESIA. Ekklesia was a greek word that means "gathering". It was used to describe Roman citizens leaving their homes to come together, usually for a political rally. The early church adopted ekklesia to describe the gathering of the saints. What is the church? How should we think about our church here at Christ Center? We will be exploring these questions and more. Please join us Sunday morning as the church gathers for the Word, worship and Fellowship.

Church. A word that is often said, not often thought about, and variously described as home, irrelevant, oppressive, boring, or a building. But, the church is actually designed to be, could actually be, is at times, the most amazing space in the entire universe. Seriously, there is no more powerful space in all creation than the space in which the church is. Not because the church is there, but because where the church is, Jesus is, and Jesus, He drives out darkness, crushes oppression, heals wounds, embraces the untouchable, dispenses wisdom , speaks truth, makes dead hearts alive and blind eyes see. What is the church? The most amazing space ever!

Pastor Steve shares an inspirational message on the hope of the resurrection, reminding us of the transformative power of Christ.
We are in a series titled "The Land Between." This place can be unstable—a land of change. Change was happening rapidly before the pandemic, but now it seems that change is occurring at lightning speed: change in politics, technology, global order, and culture. All these changes create a sense of anxiety. Let’s face it, "The Land Between" is full of uneasiness and conflict. We are not where we were, and we have not arrived where we are going. God often uses "The Land Between" to help us develop into more mature Christ followers.
"The Land Between" is the space that exists between two realities. You might recognize it as a place called the gray zone, desert, or wilderness, or perhaps you call it walking through a storm. "The Land Between" is often cloudy and sometimes hauntingly quiet. It is often a seemingly endless supply of roadblocks, speed bumps, and detours.
Join the Christ Center teaching team as they explore what God's Word says about the good and bad things that grow in "The Land Between" and how to weed out the bad while nourishing the good.

God often spoke to people through dreams, challenging individuals like Peter in a dream (Acts 10) and warning Joseph in a dream (Matt 2:13). Daniel, too, experienced dreams revealing future events (Dan 7:1-3). According to Acts 2:17, in the last days, all generations will dream and have visions.
T.E. Lawrence's quote resonates, "All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity. However, the dreamers of the day are deemed dangerous, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, making it possible."
Join Pastor Steve as he looks at a small team of people in the Bible who had a big dream.

Be On the Look Out everywhere. Why? Because God is moving and His Spirit is working to draw all kinds of people to faith in Christ. This Sunday we will look at one chapter with three stories of very different people who had very different experiences of the very same same good news that brought God's peace, power, and love into the center of their lives.
The acronym "BOLO" signifies "Be On the Look Out" and is commonly employed by law enforcement agencies to locate fugitives, criminals, or missing individuals. In a spiritual context, Jesus received various BOLOs from His heavenly Father, guiding Him to seek out and help the sick, the poor, the leper, the outcast, and numerous others. Similarly, Jesus imparts several BOLOs to us, urging us to identify and assist those in need. Let's delve into who we should be searching for and how we can reach out to them.

What is God trying to say to us in our busy lives? He suggests this: "Be patient! Learn to prepare. Learn to wait—for each other, for love, for celebration, for God!" In a culture that wants immediate gratification, Advent teaches us that we can rush things to such a degree that we minimize the impact. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, we will be doing a series called PREPARE. Picture a green log in a fire. It heats up for a long while before it bursts into flame. That is Christmas. There was a certain waiting before the Messiah came. There is purpose in the waiting. It is a season of preparation. We will look at the ingredients of preparation: Hope, Peace, Joy, Love, and, finally, Jesus. Please join us for our Advent Series and let us all learn how to PREPARE for Jesus to be born anew in all of our hearts.
Where are you finding JOY this Christmas? Is there more to it than just gingerbread lattes and Christmas movies? And what about JOY for people who really struggle with loneliness and loss this time of year? Is there JOY for them? Jesus offers a deep and lasting JOY that goes beyond circumstances. Join us as guest, Tim Williams, brings a message of hope and JOY to thrill a weary world.

Is your core question "Do I have purpose?" Have you ever wrestled with having purpose? If so, join Pastor Steve as he teaches us God's design for purpose and how to overcome the scramble.
Tired from the hamster wheel of life? Wondering how to live the life you were created to live, all the while maintaining the status quo? Feeling like there are cracks appearing in your “If I do this then this will result” way of thinking? Join us as we wonder together about our value and worth and possibly find it in an unexpected place.

And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide himself anymore, but your eyes shall see your Teacher. And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left. Isaiah 30:20-21
- Did you grow up in a home with neglect and addiction? Did you feel protected? Was there abuse?
- Did your parents struggle with money? Were your basic needs not met?
- Were you often overlooked by your parents? Did you not feel listened to? Or was love withheld from you?
- Were you abandoned by a family member? Did your birth order seem to cause you to be overlooked?
- Did you grow up in a home where grades and performance were the focus?
- Did you feel unimportant? Was perfection expected of you? Did you feel as though you didn't measure up?
- Did you feel overly pressured to make a difference in the world? Was service and legacy always placed above your needs?
If you can relate to any of these questions, then you are not alone. So does the rest of the human race. We are often at the mercy of these issues well into adulthood. How we answer these questions determine how we treat others and how we handle issues of identity, behavior, and beliefs. Join us as the teaching team helps us apply God's word to the unanswered questions of our lives.

"There has never been a more... time than now." Hyperbole? Yes, but as our experience of serving Christ in culture changes, hyperbole is one coping technique. For many of us, it FEELS like it's harder than ever to walk faithfully with Jesus. But the truth is, there have been many... disintegrating cultures, more divided countries, polarized politics, and challenging times to be a Christian. The reality is that every place, every time, every person has presented unique challenges to the gospel and unique reflections of God's common grace. We, like all churches throughout the centuries and across the globe, need to hear Peter's powerful reminder to some of the first generation of Christians of who we are, where we are, and how we are to live Christ-centered lives in an "I"-centered culture.

"Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." A cute, memorable, and completely WRONG nursery rhyme. Words can hurt. But, words can also heal. Some people's words can tear down while other people's words can build up. When we listen to words, we give them power. Discipleship is about letting the life giving power of the Word of Christ dwell in us and change us so His love and life can flow through us.

Have you ever been fooled by appearances? Something was not as it appeared. Then you can identify with the Centurion that stood by Jesus at the cross. Something that Jesus said totally changed his mind about who Jesus was. It was Jesus' final cry on the cross that changed everything. Join Pastor Steve as we explore the final cry of Jesus and how that cry paired with the resurrection changed everything for all of humanity.

This week, we’re talking about how to approach grief with hope instead of despair. Pastor Steve explores the dangerous habits of rehearsing and cursing, which can lead to wallowing in grief and resentment towards joy. Let’s not just grieve, but mourn together and remember Jesus as our source of strength and comfort. This message will encourage and uplift anyone who is experiencing grief and struggling to find hope in the midst of deep sorrow.

Here at Christ Center one of our 5 values is following Jesus, which seems easy at first glance but becomes a bit more challenging in daily living. Often it is difficult because of our thinking patterns. By nature we think earthly; our thoughts often come from a place of self: self-protection, self-importance, and self-righteousness. The idea of thinking again is a reminder that often our instinctual thought processes go the ways of the world, and yet Jesus whom we want to follow taught a different way of thinking. Jesus taught about the Kingdom of God where things are done in a new way, resulting in righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. Join us as we think differently in the face of offense and grievance.

Have you ever wanted to change something in your life, perhaps a habit, a feeling or an attitude, but despite your best effort, nothing changed? Maybe you need to THINK AGAIN about your strategy. The Bible offers tools and principles to produce positive changes in our lives. Our THINK AGAIN series will look at how thinking affects feelings, which in turn impact actions. Proverbs 23:7 tells us, “As a person thinks in their heart so are they.” Together, we will explore how God wants us to think as we examine some areas in our lives where wrong-thinking can easily creep in.

Join us this week as we explore the joy in serving. Serving with an attitude of joy is a learned behavior that develops as we imitate Christ in His love for others.
How many of us know JOY can often feel elusive this time of year? This week, we are going to look to Jesus and be reminded that He is our source and He brings us GOOD NEWS that causes JOY. Let's look at that Good News up close and let it CAUSE us to AUTHENTICALLY CELEBRATE Christmas. —— Christ Center exists to reach people for Christ and make disciples.

This week Pastor Steve and Steffanie Haney kicked off our JOY series. They talked about the difference between happiness and joy. Happiness is a feeling dependent on external circumstances and whether or not our expectations are being met. Joy is being present to Jesus. Therefore since Jesus is the essence of the Gospel or good news then wherever the Gospel goes you can find joy. Steve and Steffanie challenged us to reach out during the Holidays and in doing so we would find Joy. “He who refreshes others will themselves be refreshed.” Proverbs 11:25

God created us for a relationship with Him and then others. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.” And let's face it, relationships can be difficult. There is a term in the computer gaming world called a “HACK”. A hack is when you are so familiar with the code of a certain video game that you can rework the code to gain an advantage. The Bible is the Christian code and when we become familiar enough with it we can use these hacks for positive. We will be exploring some principles (hacks) that will help us win in our relationships.

As the word of God is planted in our hearts, in order for it to grow it must first take root and then it will emanate into our habits, daily practices and disciplines that saturate every part of our lives! In return our very existence offers worship to God. A life surrendered and dependent on Him will make us a vessel of worship in Spirit and in truth not based on our performance but by His power at work within us!

It is said that the light of God shines brightest in the dark. But can it be that our flaws, our imperfections, our failures, are what allow the true grace of Jesus to be seen most clearly to those around us? Find out as we kick off the series that will take us to Easter: Broken to Beautiful.
We are looking at how we can access the abundant life that Jesus offers. Pastor Steve describes the resurrection code. This is a pattern seen in the Bible by which we learn how God can transform the difficult seasons of our life into seasons of flourishing!

At Christ Center, reaching students for Jesus is one of our most treasured values. This generation's young people are facing challenges like never before--they need love, truth, and most of all, our presence. Join us to hear from Student Director, Kelsie Folden, as we reflect on what God has done in the lives of our students this year, and as we look ahead to the invitation before us in reaching the next generation.
Some might argue that LOVE is the main theme of our very existence.
“I love pizza” “I love puppies” "I love you”
We will be exploring the truth that GOD IS LOVE. 1 John 4:16
What does God’s Love look like? God’s love is a “SO LOVED” kind of crazy, irresistible unconditional love. Join us and be reminded that you are LOVED!!!
Have you ever played the game, Hide and Seek? Come find out what a game like that might have to do with God's invitation to us as we conclude our series, "I Quit."
One of the problems with our current culture and especially social media is the realization that everyone is doing more than you. They are traveling more, they are celebrating more, their lives have more milestones, they have seemingly fewer problems, they accomplish more and a million other indicators that your life is obviously sub-par when compared with everyone else. Comparison can be deadly. We are going to look at what the Bible says about comparison and discuss some principles from God’s Word about overcoming it.
Ever find yourself feeling like you are just “NOT ENOUGH” for all the things? We have a human tendency to want to be enough! Show ourselves strong and effective. The problem is we all hit human limitations. There is a reason for this! We were made to receive our ability to do some things empowered by our Creator. When we try in our own strength without His empowerment we eventually hit a wall! Be inspired as you listen to prioritize THE MOST IMPORTANT THING!
When bad things happen, there are a few ways we typically respond. In this message of I QUIT we will look at the Bible to learn some ways of responding to bad things that are healthy and we will also take a look at how we should NOT respond.
Do you ever get frustrated with your job? There are days when it is good and fulfilling. But there are days where most of us feel like giving up or moving on or just plain frustrated! Let’s examine how our work is actually a calling from God and how we can thrive where we are planted.

As we prepare to gather in the completed building for the first time on Sunday, September 19th we must ask ourselves, “Is the church building really the promise we’ve all been waiting for?” Or are the promises of God something else?

Do you ever wish that God would rescue you? Rescue you from your pain, your circumstances, even your own choices? In the conclusion of our series, Flip the Script, we look at the life of a man who wasn’t rescued—but found redemption.
Do you ever feel like something in your life is beyond repair? The situation is just too hopeless. The relationship is just too broken. The secret is just too devastating. It's beyond repair. This weekend we look at a man who experienced a complete and utter reverse of direction when Jesus entered his story.

Are your eyes down and around or up and beyond? How does God flip the script in Stephen's darkest moment?
Learn from a world-class hoper named David. Pastor Steve teaches us that there is a vast difference between hoping and wishingon our journey of growing hope.
As we honor our graduates we are reminded that we can hope in the next generation even as we roll up our sleeves and pass the baton of faith.
Looking at the Life of Elijah we discover some HOPE KILLERS. How did the Lord work in Elijah's life to restore HOPE again?
Looking at the life of Naomi we discover a true HOPE GIVER, her name is Ruth. Journey with Pastor Steve and not only learn where we find hope but also how to give it.
Pastor Steve reflects on how traumatic events can disrupt how we see ourselves and leave us asking "Who am I?" But Jesus wants to redeem our failures, restore our calling, and reaffirm our finish.
Tim Williams teaches on the beauty of Jesus washing the disciple's feet and what we can learn from it.
Do you have some non-negotiables in your day? Week? Or year? We often arrange our lives around our non-negotiables. Jesus is worthy of arranging our lives around. Pastor Steve looks at 4 characters at the anointing at Bethany. What did each of them arrange their life around?
Pastor Steve talks about what happens when our plans don't turn out the way we want. Is God still good? How should we respond? He uses John 11 and the raising of Lazarus as his ground zero.

Pastor Steve teaches how easy it is to put our faith in stuff. Jesus teaches us it's not about how much stuff we have, it's how we hold the stuff that we have. Arms clinched tightly to our chest or outstretched in a posture of generosity.
Pastor Steve shares how easy it is to allow condemnation to knock us out of the game. Condemnation tells us who we are NOT. Conviction reminds us who we ARE in Jesus!
At times we all fall short. What do we do when we are at the end? Looking at the wedding at Cana we see that Jesus is able to create NEW WINE when we have run dry.
So take a NEW grip with your tired hands and strengthen
Your weak knees. Mark out a straight path for your feet so that
Those who are weak and lame will not fall but become strong.
Hebrews 12:12
In a world where hope is a scarce commodity, Jesus paints a picture that demonstrates that He is the hope the world has been waiting for.
