A message from the series “Titus: God\’s Plan for a Healthy Church.” Pastor Ben Tellinghuisen – God’s list of qualities for every elder aren’t necessarily what we would expect; they aren’t based on a long list of skills or vast experience – the list is first and foremost a description of a life that is lived above reproach. Listen as we study and apply this list.

A message from the series “Titus: God’s Plan for a Healthy Church.” Pastor Ben Tellinghuisen – We are all stewards of the life that God has given us to live.

A message from the series “God’s Plan for All Christians: Church Membership.” Pastor Matt Hilbert – Who is in charge of the church? This is a vitally important question and one which Scripture speaks directly to. As we search the Scriptures we’ll see that Christ is the ultimate authority of the church, elders have spiritual
authority over the church, deacons lead in serving the church, and every church member plays a role protecting the purity of the church. We’ll also look at how Scripture advises us to relate to the elders who have authority over us. When a church is governing itself biblically, Christ is honored and the body is well served.

Pastor Tim McKnight – Emphatic warning is provided of the dangers of apostasy. Hebrews teaches us the deadly seriousness of sin, God’s wrath is fearful, and there is no other way to salvation apart from Christ.
