Celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Acts 2:22-24
Abraham Cremeens
April 4, 2021
Fifty days after Jesus rose from the dead, the Apostle Peter stood before a crowd and proclaimed the gospel. It was Pentecost and the Holy Spirit had just poured out on the church. Amid that miracle, Peter took the opportunity to point the crowd to the living Christ, Jesus of Nazareth, who came to do what only God could do. He offered victory over sin and over death itself to all who would trust in him.

In the first Genesis series, we looked at God's promise to Abraham which was carried on through Isaac and Jacob. Jacob went on to have twelve sons and now we pick back up the history of God's redemptive work in the world. We will see that God works in and through the worst of circumstances to bring about the best of his plan for us.
The incarnation shows Christ on the initiative, born to set his people free from their sins. Nothing was in his way then and nothing is in his way now. We have Christ the King and he literally is Christmas. In this series, we will look at specific responses to Jesus in an attemp to align accordingly and be transformed through the Spirit.
Many think there is no place for lament and doubts in the Christian life. But Scripture says otherwise and proves that raw and honest prayer is a healthy Christian practice. Habakkuk teaches that, while you cannot demand a reason for your pain, you can expect a redemption.
God made people as the pinnacle of his entire creation. He created humanity in his image so that they would be his representatives in the world and steward it in his likeness. This reality should impact the way we view the various issues covered in this series: human value, ethnicity, gender, and singleness/marriage.
If we are to follow Jesus and follow him effectively, then we are faced with two questions that are of utmost importance. Who is Jesus? and What is a disciple? We'll answer these questions as we go through the Gospel of Mark, so that we can be equipped to be true disciples.
We are called to be the church. But what does that entail? In this series, we'll explore some of the hallmarks of church life and redefine what that should look like. We're not redefining in terms of coming up with what we want that to look like, but we're seeking to return to a biblical definition and practice for our church family.
This world pulls us in many different directions, often disguised as "Christian" teaching. The call of Christ is to abide in him. As believers navigate what it is to follow Jesus in the midst of a world in darkness, John writes to arms us with truth and encourage us to be a light as Jesus is light; love as God is love; and to fellowship in the common life we have in Jesus.
Life requires U-Turns. Some big and some small. The book of Jonah is full of them. We're all walking on a path that is the wrong way, but by his grace, God turns us around 180 degrees on a path towards him. In light of this, in the book of Jonah we'll be focusing on four themes; the nature of God, the response of people, the mission of God, and the person of Christ.
God has a purpose for this world that he designed before time began. God called Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob into that plan and gave them promises to hold onto as they took steps of faith in active obedience. We also fit into God’s purpose as we walk by faith to wherever he takes us. Ultimately all of our stories point to the glory of God as he fulfills his plan in this world.
Children are a heritage from the Lord (Psalm 127:3). Whether they join us through birth or through adoption, the arrival of a new child into our family calls for celebration, thanksgiving, and a renewal of our commitment to train future generations to hope in God (Psalm 78:4-7). Toward this end, Kossuth holds a "Growing Families" Sunday each year focusing on the importance of family discipleship.
