This Sunday, David Chan preached on how gratitude is greater than grumbling! Gratitude is not dependent on our circumstances but rather grounded on Jesus and the finished work of the cross. We can grow in joy and the power of the Spirit as we lean into gratitude.
At C3 NYC's staff meeting, Pastor Josh Kelsey continued our series in Revelations, diving into the letter to the persecuted church in Smyrna. Jesus is the First and the Last, the Alpha and the Omega. He is not just Creator, but He is eternal—meaning He is faithful to complete the good work He began in you!
Conviction flows from connection. This Sunday, Pastor Filmore preached on the compromised church of Pergamum in Revelation 2—and how we can learn awareness, conviction and repentance that will reconnect us to a full life of freedom. When we create margin to be abide in His word and with the Holy Spirit, we'll be a church that lives with conviction, a city on a hill that testifies to God's glory and grace.
At C3 NYC's staff meeting, Pastor Josh shares a message on rekindling and returning to our first love. Teaching from the letters to the churches in Revelations, we can learn to rekindle our holiness, truth, authentic faith and purpose!
In this message Pastor Josh reminds us of the importance of coming back to our first love, and keeping our desire for him above all other desires. When we see him truly in all He has done for us, the only proper response is to love Him with all our hearts.
Generosity is trusting God with what’s already His. This Generosity Sunday, Pastor Filmore preached on contribution over consumption, teaching from the building of the temple in Exodus. The vision of God is always outworked through the generosity, gifts and giving of His people.
This Sunday, lead pastor Josh Kelsey preached on having a single vision from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 6. It can be easy to call Jesus King but not allow Him to rule our finances, so as we kick off our Vision Week, we’ll see that God has given us vision for that see beyond the short-term and seeks first the Kingdom!
