NO WORSHIP GATHERING ON JUNE 26th!

Posted on June 18, 2011 by Mac

Hey, folks! Mac, here with an important message:

On Sunday, June 26th, 2011, we will not be having our regularly scheduled worship gathering.

On that Sunday evening, I will begin attending an annual conference of New Christian (Swedenborgian) pastors from all across the globe. Also, our staff will have just attended a week long conference for members of our sponsoring organization, the General Church of the New Jerusalem. And hey, it’s the beginning of summer, we’re a brand new church, and all of our volunteers deserve a nice little break.

But we’ll all be back in time for worship the following Sunday, July 3rd, when we’ll be talking about spiritual freedom. Hope to see you there! Come as you are, and bring a friend.

Potential 4: Fight…and Surrender

Posted on May 19, 2011 by Mac

Jesus allowed his body to be painfully executed, and then later rose again. The third step in “taking up your cross” is to allow the Lord to win your spiritual battles, by surrendering your need to serve yourself. Develop this habit: when you are confronted with the selfish attitude you are asking the Lord to remove from you, remind yourself that it is against the Lord’s will, and let go of that part of you that your higher self wants to break free from.

When Jesus allowed himself to be arrested, tried, tortured and executed, and then rose from the dead, part of what he was doing was showing us a path that will lead each person to the amazing potential he sees in each of us. Therefore, take up your cross and follow the Lord by walking a new path that includes self-examination, prayer, and spiritual struggle, so that you can fulfill your beautiful potential.
