...One Another

Nearly sixty times in the New Testament we are given instruction about how to treat 'one another.' In this series we'll focus on the 'one another' passages we find in the book of Romans. Together we'll look at how we can live with and love one another and build with God an even more incredible and loving fellowship in our church.

Called

One of the greatest gifts God gives us is His church. So what is the church? What is it supposed to be? How do we find God and live our faith through the gift of His church? Join us as we seek to Grow Closer and find our place in God's church by looking at the birth of the early church in the book of Acts.

At the Table...

We celebrate the Lord's Supper once a month at Bellewood. What does it mean when we do celebrate it? Who is with us at that table? Throughout 2017 we'll look at the gathering at that table as we look at Going Deeper, Growing Closer, Reaching Further.

Last Words

A lot may be known or understood about someone from hearing their last words. What was important to them, who mattered to them is often emphasized in those final moments. As Easter approaches, we will explore Jesus' final words from the cross. In those words we will discover some of the most wonderful truths about our Savior.

He Loved Us First

Everyone has their own opinion and their own plan and their own practice on how to really get closer to our God. After all, that should be the core of our very life and very being. But is there just one way? No. But looking into Scripture will give us the place to start. Let's look together at 1 John and see how loving what God loves can draw us closer to our Father.

A Greater Christmas

Parties - Decorations - Drinking - Cookies - Shopping, Shopping, Shopping! - Is this what makes a good Christmas? A great Christmas? Well, let's not settle for good or great. Let's look together how to have A Greater Christmas that can only be found in Jesus.

Thanksgiving 2016

Well, we know we're supposed to be thankful this time of year. But how? What is the 'secret' to truly being thankful to God this Thanksgiving? Join us as we seek to have a thankful heart this holiday season.

Baptism Service

Celebrating God's gift of batism with our friends of The Neighborhood Church and Pastor Ronnie Wyatt.

Election 2016

And it's that time again. How do citizens of God's Kingdom live and vote as citizens of our nation. Let's look to Psalm 146 for one way to navigate this time in our history.

Better Together

Peanut butter and jelly. Popcorn and movies. Milke and cookies. Some things are just better together. Well, that's true of church as well. God put us together for a reason. He created us and knows that we do so much more and so much better when we're working together. Let's explore how we are so much better together in His church.

CRASH

It's not quiet. It's not peaceful. It's not safe. It's a collision when the King brings God's kingdom to meet the kingdom of earth. Mark tells the story in the Gospel of how our King brings His Kingdom of life and hope to all of us.

SUBMERGED - VBS

Going beneath the surface to explore how God sees us and how He calls us to see others.

FEARLESS

At many times and in many ways, fear can get in the way of what God wants for us. But the call isn't to be fearless in the face of the world; that can be dangerous. But to obe who God wants us to be, we must fear less. Join us as we look at some Old Testament characters and see how God helped them fear less so they might be who He called them to be.

CRASH

It's not quiet. It's not peaceful. It's not safe. It's a collision when the King brings God's kingdom to meet the kingdom of earth. Mark tells the story in the Gospel of how our King brings His Kingdom of life and hope to all of us.

NEW YEAR 2016

Every time we close out the year and prepare for another, it seems like we have to think through, measure, and evaluate how well the last year went and what we have to fix for the next year. So many times if feels like we just never accomplished what we thought we should. Every year HAS to be better than the last. But is that how God looks at things? Let's explore that together and we look forward to a new year.

GOOD NEWS GREAT JOY

There is just so much to do this time of year. Organize parties, go shopping, bake cookies, invite relatives, volunteer for helping agencies, or work really hard at avoiding all of this. Either way, this time of year keeps us busy and can overwhelm us. And sometimes church is no safe haven - we fill all the time of this season with special services and practices and projects. So let's stop together for a moment and....just breathe. Let's slow down and look again at the Christmas story, boiling it all down to four words; four words spoken by an angel on that first Christmas. Let's relax and hear again the GOOD NEWS of GREAT JOY.

Thanksgiving 2015

Were you ever forced to say 'thank you' when you were a kid. How much did you mean it when you finally gave in and said it? Right, not much real gratitude there. So why do we try to guilt people into giving thanks each year at this time. What does real thanksgiving mean and how can we not just say 'thanks' but truly be thankful. Let's find out together.

SOLID message series

Jesus spoke of a solid foundation on which to build our lives. A book, THE BOOK, but so much more. Join us in our message series, SOLID, as we explore why God gave us the Bible and how to make it the foundation of our lives.

PAUSE message series

Overworked. Overwhelmed. Burned out. We all face this and it might just be because we have forgotten one of God's great gifts - the Sabbath. It's not just a day of going to church or a day of doing nothing. Instead, it is a day to recharge, refresh, and reconnect with God. In this message series we'll look at how we can reclaim God's Sabbath for our lives today.

Through the Flood
message series

The animals marching two by two. The giant boat. A beautiful rainbow. The story of Noah and the flood has become little more than the inspiration for cute nursery decorating ideas. But the story holds so much more. Join us as we find pain, grace, and hope in the story of Noah in our Through the Flood message series.

Saved and Serving
message series

As complicated as life's questions might be, it is possible to simplify who we are and why we are here when we look to God. Join us as we find those simple (but not easy) answers in our message miniseries, Saved and Serving.
