When is the last conversation you had?  Did you talk about the weather, sports, or the news?  So often our conversations are so surface level!  Most of my conversations start with, “How are you?” and one of us answers, “fine.”  Our conversations rarely go deeper than that.

Yet, what if God wanted us to go deeper?  What if God wanted our conversations to connect with the Things that Matter most?  We are called to speak about the things we are passionate about and the deep things in life.  Join us Sunday as we ask how we can make our conversations deeper and more meaningful. See you Sunday!

Time is just gets away from us.  We want to spend time with family, but we also want to put in extra time at work.  We want to have time with God, but we also want time with our spouse.  We want alone time, but we also need time with our friends.  So many things pull on our time and often we let the loudest voices, rather than the most important ones, win the day.  What takes up time for you that you don’t need?  Where is there waste in your life?  Join us Sunday as we dig into Time and how to use it for the Things that Matter.  See you Sunday!

What resolutions are you adopting for the new year?  How will those change your life?  What are the Things that Matter Most in your life?  Or another way to say it is what are the top priorities in your life?  These are the things that we use our money, our time, our imagination, and concentration on.  They are the things that drive us. This Sunday is the first week in a new sermon series on the Things that Matter.  We will talk about the ways we order our priories and the way we often let the world dictate what is important to us, rather than dictating to the world what is important.  I hope you will join us Sunday at 11 as we kick off the new year!

This Christmas Ignite wants to give Jesus a Birthday gift!  We want to make Christmas more than just presents, parties, and decorations.  We want Christmas to be about the things Jesus cared about. So this year we are trying to raise $1000 for Children’s First Counseling.

This is an amazing organization that seeks to provide help for low income families that have suffered trauma.  They help by providing low cost or sometimes free counseling to kids in need.  Therapy has changed the lives of so many people in our congregation and we hope that this is a simple way we can give back. To give CLICK HERE and select Ignite as the fund for your gift.  100% of your gift will go to Children’s First Counseling!  Thank you and Merry Christmas!

Christmas is almost here and I can hardly wait!  This Friday we celebrate Christmas with an exciting time of worship with our family at CCM and I hope you will join us.  Friday night we dig into the Christmas story, but we also have worship on Sunday.  This Sunday we dig into the story of what happened after the manger?  Those next few weeks what was God doing and how was Jesus at work even then?  Join us Sunday to hear more.   What an exciting week this promises to be!

Mary is such an interesting person!  She has been revered by some like a deity, and ignored by others.  Yet, this time of year we cannot forget her story.  She was Sent an Angel!  Why did God choose her for this most important task?  Why was she unique?  Join us Sunday as we dig into her story and the why of the very first follower of Jesus.

Grace and Peace,
