God’s People for God’s Mission

February 5, 2023 Matthew Crowe

God’s people were never meant to be insulated from the world around them. They are called to be separate because they are called to go out on God’s mission. Sinai was more than the giving of the Law. It was the continuation of God’s mission to the nations, a mission that the Church continues today. Worship with us each Sunday at 10 AM.

Light A Fire Under This Church

January 29, 2023 Matthew Crowe

What is the nature of the God who calls us? He is strange. He is powerful. And when we pause our hurried lives, we will see that the bush in Exodus is still burning, and that will “light a fire under this church.”

Exodus 3:1-15

A Church on the Move

January 1, 2023 Matthew Crowe

Monuments honor the past and remind us of our best moments. But they have a problem: monuments don’t move. God commands His Church to move so we must decide: are we going to be a monument or a movement? Matthew 28:18-20

All I Want for Christmas

December 4, 2022 Matthew Crowe

Have you made your Christmas wish list? If you made a Christmas wish list to God, what would you include? The good news is that God has given us a wish list that is better than anything we could ask for. And He has already delivered the gifts. Isaiah 9:2-7

What Do You Think About Jesus

November 27, 2022 Matthew Crowe

There are lots of important questions to ask. What’s going to happen with the economy? What will our futures look like?

November 20, 2022 Marty Brownfield

Hebrews 12:1-3

Plant Sequioas

November 13, 2022 Matthew Crowe

In this age of expecting quick results and instant gratification, we are tempted to take shortcuts in discipleship. But making disciples is not a program we can initiate; it is a process we must imitate. Real disciples don’t grow like Chia pets, they grow like sequoias. Luke 1:39-45

October 23, 2022 Matthew Crowe

Luke 16:19-31

You Can Take It With You

October 16, 2022 Matthew Crow
They say, “You can’t take it with you.” In one of His strangest parables, Jesus tells us otherwise. We can’t bring money into Heaven but we can use it to affect God bringing us there! Join us Sunday as we learn, “You CAN Take It With You.”
Scripture Reading : Luke 16:1-13

Grumbling About Grace

October 9, 2022 Matthew Crowe

Luke 15:25 – 32

Celebrate Recovery

October 2, 2022 Matthew Crowe

For a sinner to repent is not shameful. It is a time for celebration. Jesus gives us two parables that turn our grumbling into rejoicing. Like a shepherd with a lost sheep and a woman with a lost coin, God not only pursues us relentlessly but He celebrates finding us ridiculously. Luke 15:1 – 10

Disturbing The Peace

September 25, 2022 Matthew Crowe
Jesus brings peace, right? That’s what the angels announced at His birth, but on His way to the Cross Jesus said He brings division. Join us Sunday, Sept. 25 at 10 AM as we see Jesus “Disturbing the Peace.”
Scripture Reading : Luke 12:49-56

Fear Not Little Flock

September 18, 2022 Matthew Crowe

With threats of a food shortage and recession, it feels like we have a lot to worry about. We are living in anxious and fearful times. Yet Jesus tells us, “Fear not.” As bad as the times are, the Father is good. But the real good news is that He “is pleased to give us the kingdom.” Join us Sunday as we open the Scriptures and hear Jesus say, “Fear Not, Little Flock.”

Non-Negotiable Mission

August 28 Matthew Crowe
Everything is negotiable, or so they say. A negotiation-minded lawyer went up against a mission-minded Jesus. He discovered otherwise. When it comes to the mission of Christ, nothing is negotiable.

A Counter-Cultural Church

August 21, 2022 Matthew Crowe
What happens when the counter-culture becomes the culture? What happens when the anti-establishment becomes the establishment? What happens when the Church, which is in the world, starts acting like it is of the world? Jesus sends out 72 evangelists and reminds us that we must be “A Counter-Cultural Church.

God is light. We can’t be in darkness if we come to Him. This does not mean we must be perfect. But it means we must come out of darkness. We must come out of hiding.

Suffering Brings Compassion

Mean Time

June 19, 2022 Matthew Crowe
Life can feel like we’re just living “in the mean time,” that we are waiting on something to happen, and that this present moment is inferior. But this present moment, “The Mean Time,” is when life happens. And Jesus has not told us to wait. He’s told us what He wants us to do in “The Mean Time.” 
Scripture Reading : John 13:31-35

Where No One Walks Alone

June 12, 2022 Matthew Crowe
Christ has promised to be with His Church. One way Jesus is with us is when we are with each other. The Church is a place “Where No One Walks Alone.” This is both who we are at Goodman Oaks and who we want to be. Join us as we talk about our plan to be a church “Where No One Walks Alone.”
