Ribbon Cutting of Renovated Children's Area at First Assembly!

Sunday, May 19, we'll be have a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house in the Kidztown area to put on display the improvements made through our Christmas offering!  Check it out and see the difference we've made through serving and giving!

Spiritual Gifts Assessment

Yesterday's message on Joshua and advancing as a church is still ringing in my head and heart!  One of the ways that we're wanting to help you to reach your potential as a believer is by providing a simple path to identifying the spiritual gifts that the Holy Spirit has placed in your life!

By clicking here, you'll be able to take a test that will take less than 10 minutes to complete!  It will then give you the chance to send this information back to First Assembly's pastoral leadership.  Would you take a moment to complete what we'll soon be asking the whole church to do?

Holy Spirit Event--An Opportunity to be Filled with Holy Spirit!

On Sunday evening, May 19 at 6PM, we'll be offering a two-hour focus on the infilling of the Holy Spirit. I've not been at First Assembly long enough to know if anything like this has been done here, but I can say I've never seen a church offer this kind of experience to help their people grow in their experience of the Holy Spirit in quite this way.

We'll be taking in two video teachings from the Alpha curriculum that we use here at our church.  We'll also have some dessert and discussion time.  The talks are called "Who is the Holy Spirit and What Does He Do?" and "How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit".  The evening will end with a time of worship and a time to receive prayer and seek for the baptism of the Holy Spirit as described in the New Testament.

As I mentioned in yesterday's message, water baptism and Holy Spirit baptism are the chief ways that God identifies his people in the New Testament.  If you've never experienced the Holy Spirit in this way or have questions about who he is or what he does, please make plans to join us.  I know I've already heard from believers who experienced Spirit infilling decades ago who plan to be there to open their hearts to Him.

See you there!

The Story: Let the Battle Begin

Yesterday's powerful services were a reminder that God is about doing something with us as a community, and not just personally.  Check out the two videos below to hear the messages and taste what God was doing in our midst that day.  The first one is just the message and the second one includes those powerful worship and communion moments that were also a part of our day.

Could I encourage you to comment below about how this message speaks to you or what you've heard God saying to you through it?

The Story--10 Commandments

WOW!  Our special guest speaker on April 28, 2013 spoke about reaching people in places that have never been reached.  He gave two different messages and most everyone there said that missionary's messages were some of the most powerful they'd heard.  Below the two videos show the two different services with the two different messages that came out of the same text.  Take some time and see the world in a new way through these messages.  Thanks Joe for preaching and living powerfully!
