Our church is known for its many generous people as evidenced in the weekly giving, and in the blessing of our new worship center! So many have given one-time gifts, and many more have committed to giving monthly gifts, as well, to the Restored Life Center @ RCC. Now for the latest update: We set a total giving goal several months back of $3.3M by the time we entered the building and guess what?
This week is one of our most-favorite Sundays of the year when we celebrate God’s blessing and provision of our nation. 248 years ago, we declared to the world that we were a free country, accountable to God. The first mention of God occurs in the very first sentence of the Declaration which calls out the origin of power being the “Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God.”
As you know we’ve been in a series called, “What Happens Next" a chronological study of end-times events. We began with “Unwrapping the Rapture” and this week we’ll move on to the next event which involves the Ezekiel 38 War in a sermon titled, “Israel’s Time of Trouble." I believe the Bible reveals that in between the Rapture of the Church and the beginning of the 7 years Tribulation, the world will witness this ominous and sobering battle between God and man when Russia, Iran, and other Arab nations come against Israel in an effort to wipe her off the map completely. Of course, this axis of evil fails to understand God’s love for Israel, His chosen people, and His mighty power and resolve to protect her. In short, God wins! I hope you can join us as we look at this awesome chapter in scripture this Sunday.
This weekend is our annual Father’s Day service, and we are excited to welcome out all the dads in our church to celebrate them. Whether you’re a dad or a father-figure in someone else’s life, we encourage you to come out to the 9am or 11am service and be encouraged! I’m teaching a lesson called, “The 4 Traits of a Godly Father” and we’re going to talk about the traits that both Joshua and Caleb possessed which made them the godly leaders of their families and their nation. I hope you can make it!
Last Sunday’s grand opening was AMAZING! Over 800 people came to celebrate God’s goodness and faithfulness to Restored Community Church! We worshipped Him in music for the first time in our new sanctuary and then opened our Bibles as we worshipped in the Word. Afterwards, we fellowshipped around food trucks, music, and family, as hundreds lingered to talk and laugh together. It was a special moment in our church’s history, for sure.
It’s finally here! The Grand Opening of the Restored Life Center at RCC! The chairs have arrived, the coffee center is almost ready, the 7-stall restrooms are beautiful, but wait! Something is missing! YOU! I hope you’ll be joining us at one of our two Sunday services at 9am and 11am, AND I hope you’ll be bringing a guest with you. This is the perfect moment to invite your family, friends, and neighbors to come check out the new church in town.
This weekend we continue our study of the Book of 1 John with a message I’ve called The Bottom Line of Love. This week we see that God is the very essence of love, that His love restores us, and that His love embodies us when we surrender to Him. I hope you’ll join us as we continue in this powerful study of His Word – as critical and timely as the day it was written!
This weekend we are returning to our study of the Book of 1 John in a sermon called, A Love Hate Relationship. The disciple reminds us of the importance of maintaining a heart of love towards others as we navigate through this contentious world, and he uses 4 examples through relationships which we see daily in various scenarios around us. I hope you’ll join us.
It’s almost Resurrection Weekend and RCC is all abuzz in anticipation of celebrating The Greatest Day In History! Hopefully, you’ve invited the person God’s placed on your heart to invite to one of the services this weekend. Would you consider asking them to attend the service you’ll be at, and invite them to sit with you? Sometimes that makes all the difference to them.
