The Arising Church
Pastor Slaughter and Eric McLeland shared with us that servanthood is not a curse but a high calling and that serving others aligns us with God's greater purpose, ensuring victory for the collective "House of God." Using the metaphor "The House Always Wins," it teaches that individual sacrifices and celebrations contribute to the success of the whole. Biblical examples like Joseph, David, Jonathan, and John the Baptist illustrate the importance of rejoicing in others' exaltation and serving strategically to support God's work through them. The message encourages unity, selflessness, and mutual care within the body of Christ, reminding listeners that God's blessings for one do not diminish His plans for another.
Pastors Peter and Pat walk the body through the timeless, yet more remez truths of the Feast of Tabernacles; showing that God’s eternal purpose for this feast is, and always will be to bring Jew and Gentile together to pour out their lives for the nations.
For this special Passover Service, Pastors James and Peter walk the body through 1 Chronicles 30 and how Hezekiah, son of David atoned for the people of Judah who are unable to observe Passover rightly. This is a powerful message on the mercy of God to accept those who approach him with faith. This whole story is a foreshadowing of what Jesus, Christ son of David would complete for the whole world on Passover.

Pastors Anthony and Pat walk us through some of the Scriptures heroes and how the Lord carried them through seasons of Pivotal Transition to be equipped for the task God had set before them.

The covenant relationship that Israel had with God was broken and in order for them to restore that they had to separate themselves from something and they had to obligate themselves to something as well. 1. What was the covenant 2. What was the separation 3. What was the obligation that Israel had to go to with that
Pattern: - Eternal perspective - Separation from the world - Confession: Cast out sin - Reading the Word - Confession again: Praise, elevation, describe what is true - Worship
