Church In The City, Chicago Il

God has established a unique and beautiful unity for His people...but how are we actively guarding unity in our local church?

When partnering with God to share Jesus with others, my effort is never redundant but neither is my ability decisive as to whether someone believes in Jesus or not.

We need to recognize the God of the impossible working in our lives- He reveals our hearts and helps us to respond to Him.

The ONE THING we must do above all else is spend time with Jesus.

Because Jesus has defeated death, all the lesser implications of sin (shame, sickness, separation, demons, destruction, desolation) have also been overcome.

All of us for Jesus is about LORDSHIP — who do you follow — and WORSHIP — what do you hope for. Surrendering to Jesus as Lord happens as together we partner with the Spirit and as we follow the pattern of Christ.Worshipping Jesus as Lord means our joy and confidence and hope is in Jesus and Him alone.

It’s impossible to reach EVERYONE with the "ALL" OF JESUS without starting with SOMEONE. Who is that someone to you?

"All" is the portion of God that He's always intended to give to us, and God's "all" is finally and completely revealed in Jesus. We respond with our "yes" to Jesus-- both as Savior and as Lord.

The power and presence of Jesus deeply transforms lives by gifting us intimacy with the Father and by freeing us from everything that holds us down and holds us back.

In the final sermon in our series on the radical church, we learn that we, as the church of Jesus are doing so much more than "life together"... we're on mission together as a radical people.

A radical church is one that simply displays the DNA of her Father. We transform what necessarily must be transformed, and this will be at odds with the world.

Praying for Hannah Sudworth as she recovers from emergency brain surgery. God's radical church calling for His radical healing in Jesus' Name.

The Lordship of Jesus and the reality of Jesus sending us on mission to continue the work He started intersect within the context of His Kingdom. We can never place a withdrawal on God’s grace that depletes the resources of heaven.

Jesus describes a Father who loves His children even in the midst of a brother's hard-heartedness.

God reveals Himself in Jesus, and He reveals Himself primarily as Father. Today is the day to come home.

Jesus, the Good Shepherd, is the only One who knows how to lead us and name us; the only One who knows how to truly speak identity, settle our worth and define our destiny.

Faith has God as its object.Faith chooses to see from God's perspective.Faith looks beyond the circumstances and expects the impossible.Faith is undivided and holds on to the promises of God.

Two kings are introduced to us in the Christmas story: Caesar Augustus, and Jesus Christ. Despite appearances, only one is the eternal true King.

Does God heal? When? Why? How? And through whom?
