Ideally, there should be no distinction between a Christian and a disciple of Christ, but in our culture there often is. Building on this unfortunate distinction, we'll explore why inspiring more Christians to become disciples of Christ is one of our church's top priorities.
In Exodus 18, Jethro, Moses's father-in-law. gives him some much needed advice. Which Moses wisely heeds. This week we'll explore how Jethro's ancient advice still speaks to us today, and why embracing our limitations is essential to our flourishing.
This week Wade will follow the thread of "Covenant" through the Scriptures. Understanding the way the ancient covenants worked not not only helps us better understand the Biblical story, but also why being in relationship with a covenant-making God is such good news.
Our Guest Speaker Summer Series continues, with a well known "Guest Speaker", our Next Steps Minister Wes Rasbury focus on celebrating the stories of members of Greenville Oaks.
We continue the summer speaker series with Guest Speaker: Mike Cope.
Executive Minister Matt Mazza discusses various ministries of Greenville Oaks and mission trip that is taking place this summer.
We begin our Greenville Oaks Summer Speaker Series with guest speaker Jonathan Storment from Pleasant Valley Church of Christ in Little Rock, AR with a message called "Greater Than Solomon".
In Jonah 4, we finally learn the reason for Jonah's initial flight from God. Turns out he wasn’t afraid of what the Ninevites might to do him. He was, instead, afraid of what God might do for the Ninevites.
The story of Jonah has been described as a work of comedy or ironic satire. Jonah 3 contains a few comically absurd details. Out of the absurdity comes some very good news about God.
What would you pray if you were stuck in the belly of a great fish? The answer seems obvious, right? Which is why Jonah's prayer is so surprising.
Just about everyone can tell you the story of Jonah is about a man who gets swallowed by a fish. While the fish makes for a great VBS skit, it's not the most important part of the story. If anything, the fish has distracted us from the deeper message of Jonah. A message which makes Jonah one of the most subversive books in the Bible.
Wade focuses on the elements within society that are contributing toward diminished mental health. How do we fight these factors?
Of all the many different factors impacting our mental health, our patterns and habits of thought is one of the most important. This is why it is essential, though not always easy, to think about the way we think.
Student Minister Zach Silva speaks to the Senior Class of 2024, encouraging them as they step into their next big season of life. He also presents ways that the church community can help support them as they move forward.
One way God helps us through our mental health challenges is by giving our lives a sense of meaning and purpose, which are not only essential to good mental health, but also to persevering through hard times.
Conversations about mental health can easily veer into extremes. One extreme, sometimes heard in Christian circles, is that mental health is exclusively a spiritual issue. Another extreme, often in response to the first, is that mental health is exclusively a biological or medical issue. This week we’ll attempt to navigate between these two extremes by considering what it means to be embodied souls.
If the saying, “Unclarified expectations are premeditated disappointments,” is true, then it is vitally important to clarify our expectations of what it means to be followers of Jesus who experience all sorts of challenges, including mental health challenges, on our journey through life.
Join us for the first message in our new series on mental health. In this series, Wade will push back against the myth that being a Christian protects us from or provides an instant cure for mental health problems. He’ll focus, instead, on ways our Christian faith supports us when we experience mental health challenges.
The Gospel of Mark ends with a surprise. No, not the resurrection of Jesus, but rather the way the women at the empty tomb respond to it.
Ancient kings typically established their kingdoms by defeating their enemies, not by letting their enemies defeat them. What kind of king is Jesus? And what difference does it make in our lives?
