Real Life Church (wa)

This message is from VISION SUNDAY 2019. We talk about the church that we see for our future, and how God is calling us to allow that vision to pull us forward, both together and as individuals.

The Church We See - Pt. 6 - Our Series continues with a message about what we believe at the core - that God's not done with His story throughout the earth. He's not done with His Church. And He's not done with us!

The Church We See - Pt. 5 - We continue our series talking about how to live in community. Often on the journey of following Jesus together, we get relational "stones" in our shoes, causing discomfort, pain and division over time. Scripture gives us a way to deal with this to bring healing and peace.

The Church We See - Pt. 4 continues with a message from Pastor Steve that explores 3 types of growth: The growth we're pursuing, the growth that's pursuing us, and the growth that is demanded of us. In all three, the goal is that we're growing into who God's called us to be!

The Church We See - Pt. 3 . Pastor Steve returns from his sabbatical, exploring the idea that we see a Christlike community.

The Church We See - Pt. 2 . Pastor Taylor continues our series, talking about our heart to be a church that functions like a well-watered garden. We're not a rainforest (all God) or a city (all man). Rather, we're like a well-watered garden, which requires us to do our part, trusting that God is the only one who can make it grow.

The Church We See - Pt. 1 . Pastor Taylor Murray opens our new series with a message entitled, "That My House May Be Full." We explore the parable of the Great Banquet, and who we as the church are called to reach.

4X7 Guest Speakers: Al Matthews, Molly Venzke, Alyssa Murray & Jeremy McWilliams. Our speakers each shared an impactful and encouraging word - and each in only 7 minutes!

INWARD OUTWARD Pt. 3 - Pastor Noelle Murray, our worship pastor, preaches about our posture before God in worship, and how God calls us to "show up."

Pastor Taylor shares a message entitled, "False Advertisement." Jesus invites us into a way that not many take - the narrow way. False prophets offer something they can't deliver on.

INWARD OUTWARD Pt. 2 - Pastor Ed Holmes continues our series with a message on worshiping "until." We often worship until we feel better - but God is calling us to worship until our perspective changes, that we see how God sees.

INWARD OUTWARD Pt. 1 Pastor Taylor begins our new series, talking about the purpose of worship. We don't worship God with our lives to earn His mercy. Rather, we live and worship from a place of having already received God's mercy.

ARMOR OF GOD Pt. 5 Our series concludes with a message from Pastor Taylor about the Sword of the Spirit. We weren't created to do this on our own - we need a Word from God to keep us going. We explore what we need to be able to win the battle with the Word of God.

ARMOR OF GOD Pt. 4 In this message, Pastor Ed talks about the Helmet of Salvation, exploring what it means to guard our thoughts with hope in Jesus.

ARMOR OF GOD Pt. 3 In this message, Pastor Taylor explores the Shield of Faith, and how we're called to "soak our shields" so that we can be ready for not only what the enemy throws at us, but for where God wants to bring us!

ARMOR OF GOD Pt. 2 We continue our series talking about the shoes of peace. Our goal as Christians is not to feel comfortable, but to know and bring the peace of God in any situation.

ARMOR OF GOD Pt 1 We kick off our new series on the Armor of God, talking about the Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness.

God has called us to make an impact on something greater than ourselves - God's Kingdom. In this message, we talk about 3 things we need to know in order to make a Kingdom Impact. We were honored to be joined by Allen Yadon, Lead Pastor of Center Point Church in Meridian, ID. Pastors Allen and Sharon have had a close friendship with our pastors and church for many years, so we consider them family!

We conclude our CHRISTIANESE Series, talking about what the blood of Jesus is really all about, and why it's important to our lives as followers of Jesus.

In Part 3 of CHRISTIANESE, we explore the phrase, "Love the sinner, hate the sin" and the fact that though we may mean well, we often say things like that from a non-Christlike heart posture.
