About Today's Service
Expand
We will continue the live streaming of our services on Facebook and YouTube, but for those who choose to attend in person, we will follow physical distancing protocols for everyone’s safety. This includes the following steps:

Getting Ready: Bring canopy tents, sun umbrellas, lawn chairs and/or blankets, water bottles, hand sanitizer, masks for yourself and any children as appropriate, a Bible, and mobile devices for access to song lyrics, etc. Popup tents can be set up behind the regular seating areas.

Arrival: Use the West Entrance to enter the parking lot. Parking opens at 9:15 AM; the service starts at 10 AM. For everyone's safety, please keep your speed to a minimum from turning off the street until you have parked your car.

Temperature Checks: Everyone must go through the First Aid tent and either (a) check their temperature at their home and give word to such as they enter the field or (b) have their temperature checked before entering the field. If one member of a family has a temperature above the CDC-recommended 100.4 degrees, the entire family must return home or remain in the vehicle.

Social Distance: Each household will be asked to maintain a proper social distance on the field. The state has asked that masks be worn when walking from your vehicle to the field, when roaming about socializing on the field, and when returning to your vehicle. Please maintain 6 feet of social distance at all times. Children must travel with their families. We ask you to hold off on handshakes, hugs, and other types of physical contact while at the service, again for everyone’s safety.

If you or a family member is older, has a compromised immune or pulmonary system, or is fearful of being in a larger socially-distanced gathering, please feel free to stay at home. Please understand that there is no shame or guilt in choosing not to attend in person. We will continue to live stream our services on Facebook and YouTube just as we have been doing.

Disclaimer: Please note by attending our service this Sunday you are expressing that (a) you are accepting of and taking full responsibility for any risk that may arise from being on our property, (b) you are indicating to us that neither you nor any member of your household has any symptoms related to COVID-19 and (c) you will respect social distancing protocols.

SONG | "Glorious Day"
Expand
I was buried beneath my shame
Who could carry that kind of weight
It was my tomb 'til I met You
I was breathing but not alive
All my failures I tried to hide
It was my tomb 'til I met You
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness into Your glorious day
[ x2 ]
Now Your mercy has saved my soul
Now Your freedom is all that I know
The old made new, Jesus, when I met You
[ CHORUS ]
I needed rescue, my sin was heavy
But chains break at the weight of Your glory
I needed shelter, I was an orphan
Now You call me a citizen of Heaven
When I was broken, You were my healing
Now Your love is the air that I'm breathing
I have a future, my eyes are open
Cause when…
[ CHORUS ]
SONG | "Uncontainable Love"
Expand
I was going down, thought it was for the count
Then I found your love
I had wandered off, thought I had gone too far
There I found your love
Fear I used to know can’t stop me anymore
'Cause I found your love
When I feel alone I have a place to go
'Cause I found your love
Great was the debt of sin
Grace bought me back again
Now I am rising up, won by the Savior’s love
Your love is higher than the stars
Declaring who you are
Your love, uncontainable
Your love is deep enough to reach
The deepest part of me
Your love, uncontainable your love
Fear I used to know can’t stop me anymore
'Cause I found your love
When I feel alone I have a place to go
'Cause I found your love
Great was the debt of sin
Grace bought me back again
Now I am rising up, won by the Savior’s love
[ CHORUS ]
Nothing, no, nothing contains your love
Nothing, no, nothing can change your love
[ x4 ]
[ CHORUS x2 ]
SONG | "All Because of Jesus"
Expand
Giver of every breath I breathe
Author of all eternity
Giver of every perfect thing, to You be the glory
Maker of heaven and of earth
No one can comprehend Your worth
King over all the universe, to You be the glory
And I'm alive because I'm alive in You
And it's all because of Jesus I'm alive
It's all because the blood of Jesus Christ That covers me and
Raised this dead man's life
It's all because of Jesus I’m alive
[ repeat all ]
Every sunrise sings Your praise
The universe cries out Your praise
I'm singing freedom all my days
Now that I'm alive
[ CHORUS x2 ]
SONG | "I Will Rise"
Expand
There's a peace I've come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say, “It is well”
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead
I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow no more pain
I will rise on eagle's wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise, I will rise
There's a day that's drawing near
When this darkness breaks to light
And the shadows disappear
And my faith shall be my eyes
[ CHORUS: “Jesus has…” ]
And I hear the voice of many angels sing
“Worthy is the Lamb”
And I hear the cry of every longing heart
“Worthy is the Lamb”
[ x2 ]
Worthy is the Lamb
[ CHORUS: “I will rise…” ]
Main Point 1:
THE SON OF GOD AND HIS CONNECTION TO EARTH AND MANKIND

1. Creating the earth - Genesis 1:1; John 1:1-3
2. Walking with man in the cool of the day - Genesis 3
3. Killing the lamb to cover Adam and Eve - Genesis 3
4. Appearing to Abraham - Genesis 18
5. Wrestling with Jacob - Genesis 32
6. Appearing to Moses in the bush - Exodus 3 (the Angel of the Lord)
7. As the Pillar of Fire - Exodus 13
8. As the Rock in the wanderings - Numbers 20
9. As the Captain with the sword - Joshua 5
10. As another in the fire - Daniel 3

There are also predictions throughout the Old Testament about His first coming. He finally arrives in Bethlehem and lives 33 years on the earth. He is crucified, buried, and rises again. After the resurrection, He makes at least 13 appearances over a 40 day period to disciples and others, including 500 at one time. He then leaves the earth but promises to return.

Then, just as the Old Testament predicted His first coming, the New Testament predicts his return for the rapture of the church. It prophecies that, after 7 years of tribulation, He will then return to the earth and set up His kingdom on the earth for 1000 years in which He will be again on the earth. After that, there is a new heaven and new earth.

Main Point 2:
THE RAPTURE

Jesus said 3 times that He would return in John 14.
Luke says it in Acts 1.
Paul says it in Philippians 3:20.
The author of Hebrews says it in Hebrews 9 and 10.
James says it in James 5.
Peter says it in 1st Peter 4 and 5.
John says it in 1st John 2 and 3.

1st Thessalonians is an entire book on this theme.
Main Point 3:
THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE RETURN OF THE LORD


Main Point 4:
THE FIVE CROWNS

1. The Imperishable Crown
What happens after the crowning?
Action Items

1. Do you need to give your life to Christ today?

2. Do you need to confess you are wasting your life and recommit to being His follower?

3. What has He made you aware of today?
