• An Image to Bear
    Oct 31 2024
    When-ever I see a new building starting, I love to guess by its bones what it will be when it is finished. By that I mean; do they begin with elevator shafts, steel structure, perhaps a concrete vault? So, will it be a hotel, a bank, an office building, a hospital? Over the next few weeks, Aaron Brockett, lead minister with Traders Point Christian Church in Indianapolis, Indiana is leading us through a series of messages entitled ReImaged. In today’s message, An Image to Bear, Aaron unpacks God’s building plans for each of us as He Re-Images us into who He wants us to become. Would you believe God begins that process from the inside out, forging our character in preparation for the purpose He has in mind. So, grab your hard hat, your tool belt, and let’s see if we can guess what Image God is building in us! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

  • Unwavering Trust
    Oct 24 2024
    Trust is a funny thing. By that I mean how we sometimes trust but other times not so much. For example, we trust that as we approach on coming traffic on the highway those drivers will follow the rules and stay on their own side of the road, even though they may be disregarding the rules about speed. We may not trust a politician yet we elect them and trust them to run the country we live in. In the same way we call on God in times of trouble yet trusting His word, His promises, His plan for our eternity, not so much. This month, Gene Appel who ministers with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California has been walking us through the book of First Peter gleaning from its pages foundational life concepts that will help us live out Unshakeable Hope. One of the original 12 followers of Christ, Peter penned the letter of first Peter to early Christians to help them live in Hope through Unwavering Trust in the Eternal God and His plan for redemption through Jesus His Son. Okay, did you know that Trust is not just a noun, but also a verb? Here’s Gene Appel with a piece of the action To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

  • Unceasing Honor
    Oct 17 2024
    Have you ever wondered, what drives this world, where this world is headed? Ever wanted to just shout: Stop the world, I want off. There were some folks, a long time ago, that were probably thinking just that. Persecuted, displaced from their homes, not really belonging. In the Bible there is a letter of hope written to people actually living that out. The Bible’s book of 1st Peter is that letter. This week, Gene Appel who ministers with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California is walking us through the book of First Peter gleaning from its pages foundational life concepts that will help us take on UnShakeable Hope. In his letter, the follower of Jesus, Peter uses a concept that most all of us find very, very scary. In fact, it goes against our very foundations yet it can be key to giving us a living hope through the grace of Jesus. Got ya hooked yet? Here’s Gene to unpack it all To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29

  • Undeserved Grace
    Oct 10 2024
    Sometimes do you ever wonder, am I enough? Am I too broken, too flawed, or even too exhausted to keep going? This month, we invite you to listen in as we discover, from a Jesus follower named Peter, how God is bigger than our story, greater than our circumstances, and stronger than our storms. This week, Mike Breaux, teaching pastor with Eastside Christian Church in Anaheim, California with multiple campuses in Southern California and beyond, is walking us through some foundational concepts of grace from the book of First Peter. Turbulent times can leave us unraveled, unsure, undone, and, let’s face it, insecure. But, when we turn our lives over to the God and Father of Jesus Christ, He can, and will give us a living hope through the resurrection and undeserved grace of Jesus. So, here’s Mike with a mighty dose of hope that comes from the Undeserved Grace of Jesus, that can help us become UnShakeable!

  • Abby-Normal
    Sep 26 2024
    Through-out the month of September our messages have centered on how, in all of our lives sometimes, life’s struggles are very real! Our speaker this week follows up on that series with a reminder that dealing with life’s struggles for the long term, requires living a life that does not follow the norm. Today’s speaker, now retired, Tim Harlow, was the lead minister of Parkview Christian Church, located in the Chicago, IL area. In today’s message Tim challenges the concept of 'normalcy,' using his own unique style of humor and personal examples to illustrate how societal norms might not lead to long-term fulfillment. In fact, Tim implores us to be "Abby-Normal" by prioritizing values over immediate desires. So, not sure how the term Abby-Normal plays out? Here’s Tim with the low down on how Abby-Normal, the narrow road, and the Bible’s account of the lives of brothers, Jacob and Esau, can help us live for the long haul To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29
