Missions & Church Planting, Media, New Year Essentials 2018, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

What is the mission of Jesus’ church? Why does it exist? In a word, what is the church for? What is our role in that? Those are the kinds of questions we’ll explore today in light of Matthew 28:16-20. What we’ll discover is that, yes, Jesus’ church has a massive, far-reaching purpose.

Prolife, Media, New Year Essentials 2018, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Today we’re continuing to walk through a set of five standalone sermons which we’re informally calling our ‘new year essentials.’ Again, this week, we wade into controversial waters.

Bible Reading, Media, New Year Essentials 2018, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

This morning we’re kicking off a fresh series of standalone sermons that we’re informally calling our ‘new year essentials.’ Today my simple, but profound, goal is to encourage us to read the Bible with an aim to see and savor God’s supreme value, in Jesus.

The treasures it contains are unsearchable, which makes this book precious beyond value.
