BEST QUOTE OF THE ASSEMBLY…

“We need to party with a purpose!”
David Kline, Executive Board
 

MESSAGE HIGHLIGHTS:

ROD SCHELLENBERG
 

Discussion question: “Should Christians be known in their neighbourhoods as those who have the best parties?”
 
Theology of enjoyment

  • God has blessed us with good things to celebrate, so celebrate them!
  • We were created to enjoy AND share God’s good things.
  • The kingdom of God includes celebration and enjoyment of God’s goodness as a part of its story.
     
    “Some people party to forget, Christians celebrate to remember…to remember the goodness of God.”
     

MESSAGE HIGHLIGHTS:

MATT EWERT

“The church is to be the voice that says to our dark broken world: “Look up!  Look to Jesus!”  Unless people ‘look up’ they will remain lost.  We should be shouting the name of Jesus from the rooftops – declaring the exalted Christ.”
 
When we look up to Jesus on the cross, we see both curse and grace – evil and good – death and life. 
 
Above all the good things the church can be doing in the world, paramount is telling people to look at the cross
