Here’s a few things I’ve learned of myself, of Jesus, of the Gospel and of the call to care for the oppressed, marginalized and orphaned children in this world. It’s a scratch on the surface of the depths of what there is to know, but I’m grateful that in His mercy God grows us as [...] 5.1.2012 // Amanda Holmstrom
Every morning that you wake up you are surrounded and blessed by the things God has created. He takes RESPONSIBILITY for the things that he has given us, from the fresh air, to all the animals on this planet, our families and friends, and even YOU! God takes RESPONSIBILITY for creating us, and even when [...] 5.1.2012 // Diana Adams
Basic Truth: God Loves Me. Question: What Does God Want You To Do? Bottom Line: God Wants Me To Do The Right Thing. Perhaps today more than ever PreSchoolers are encouraged to be independent, to make their own decisions and to choose what it is they want to see, do or be. As they are [...] 4.23.2012 // Jason Johnson
I often find myself making quick judgments of people. I don’t intentionally set out to do it. It just kind of happens. Let’s be honest, we’ve all been there – we quickly make assumptions of people based on what they are wearing, how their hair is done, what kind of car they drive or how [...] 4.12.2012 // Diana Adams
Basic Truth: Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Question: Who Is Your Friend? Bottom Line: Jesus Is My Good Friend. Making friends is one of the most exciting, rewarding and challenging parts of growing up. All throughout the month of April, our Pre-School kids will learn that they have a best friend in Jesus [...] 4.4.2012 // Jason Johnson
[Note: This post is not intended to explore doctrinal wonders like the substitutionary atonement of Jesus, the nature of His physical resurrection or the eschatological timing of His eventual return. Rather, it's a 30,000 foot narrative of God's passionate pursuit of His people as it relates to the biblical imagery of a wedding. While we [...] 3.30.2012 // Amanda Holmstrom
This month’s virtue is HOPE. HOPE is a word we often use carelessly. We often say “I ‘hope’ you have a good day.” Or “I ‘hope’ to see you soon.” But HOPE is so much bigger then that in it’s truest form. HOPE is what God offers to the world through His son! Romans 5:1-5 [...] 3.20.2012 // Jason Johnson
The call to take the Gospel to all nations is clear and undeniable: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…“ (Matthew 28:16-20). The self-declared universal exaltation of God over all nations is certain and resolved: “…I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!“ (Psalm 46:10). This is the fuel and the finish line [...] 3.6.2012 // Jason Johnson
Defining clear vision is essential in church planting. In most cases planters are starting something from nothing. You may not have people, money, a name for your church or a clue what you are doing, but you do have vision. The most basic, fundamental resource you have at your disposal is vision. Upon it everything [...] 3.1.2012 // Amanda Holmstrom
Our theme this month is Rooted: standing strong in God’s truth. As our KidsPoint kids enter into Large Group this month they are going to be entering a wilderness of deep ROOTED trees—this goes along with our virtue for the month which is Conviction—standing for what is right even when others don’t. We will [...] 2.29.2012 // Diana Adams
Basic Truth: Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Question: Who Does Jesus Love? Bottom Line: Jesus Loves Everyone. Jesus Loves Everyone. What a powerful truth to teach our WeePoint children. What an amazing foundation to lay for each of our Pre-K students. No matter who you are, what you do or where you come [...] 2.21.2012 // Jason Johnson
Inherent in all church plants, and church planters, are certain liabilities that will actively work against their vision and ultimate success. Perhaps it’s personality issues, a lack of gifting in certain areas, organizational ineptness or more seriously, chronic sin issues. Whatever the case may be, wherever the church plant may be, and whoever the church [...] 2.2.2012 // Amanda Holmstrom
Every person was created in God’s image. That means every person, no matter who they are or what they are, has been put together in the likeliness of God. So every person has VALUE. Whether you are a child, a baker, a police officer, a teacher, an office employee, or a truck driver. It’s our [...] 2.2.2012 // Diana Adams
Basic Truth: Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Question: How Do You Love God? Bottom Line: Love God With All Your Heart. Look for a definition of “love” in our modern society, and you’ll certainly be disappointed by its dilution in sappy movies, Happily Ever Afters and pervasive, self-centered egocentrism. Look for a definition [...] 1.25.2012 // Jason Johnson
I knew I loved my wife within 30 minutes after meeting her. True story. After walking her to class on our college campus and wrapping up our first conversation ever with one another, I knew she would be my wife. It was only a matter of time. What followed was months of late night talks, [...] 1.23.2012 // Randy Doleman
Orphan Care Sunday – January 29th The heart of God beats for the oppressed, the marginalized, the disenfranchised and the orphaned. The Gospel is the story of outcasted sinners being adopted into the family of God the Father through the person of Jesus. To come alongside the orphan is to powerfully demonstrate the Gospel in [...] 1.3.2012 // Amanda Holmstrom

January is a great time to change the way we play this “game” of life. Our game theme throughout the month of January is going to help paint a clearer picture of why we need self-control. Self-control means choosing to do what you should do and not what you want to do. This can be [...] 12.31.2011 // Diana Adams
Basic Truth: Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Question: Who can do anything? Bottom Line: Jesus can do anything. A Brand New Year. Each January 1st seems to swell with infinite possibility, unadulterated hope, and limitless opportunity. And each year seems to quickly remind us in some shape or fashion that our hope is [...] 12.28.2011 // Jason Johnson
