Church, Why Bother? sermon 4 & 5

We wrapped up the series this past week and I cannot believe I am headed into my 2nd series or messages already. It seems like only yesterday we arrived in Burlington...time flies!

I will start by saying message 5 was all about our statement of faith and practice at Burlington Community Church. From this, we hope to draw some into the next steps of baptism and church membership. This will now take place in the Life Group system we established as we move on to the next series of messages, EPIC.

Sermon 4 was all about the Power of the Church. This message was very basic but very pointed. We can do nothing in the church that God has not designed and given us the power and ability to do. From His resurrection power to the power of His Word, we have and always will have a direct line to the infinite power of God.

After looking at the Power of God, we can see His power displayed through the gathering of His people in worship, our prayers and power to spread the Gospel. God wants to reveal His power and it is through His people that He works and demonstrates it.

My prayer is that Burlington Community Church will never stray from the power of an almighty God!
