On of our Values as a church here at LifeChurch is ‘Relevance’. I know that’s a dirty word to some, especially those who think that in order to be relevant you need to compromise. I don’t think so! My desire is to teach/ preach the word of God without compromise. We just need to be able to relate to people’s situation, and environment. It is vital that we the church seek to communicate truth in ways that they will be able to listen, hear and understand. We need to be Relevant not Religious.
Over the next 6 months we will be teaching/ preaching on some issues we believe are relevant not only to our congregation but also to our community here in Manurewa and South Auckland.
Here are some of the themes. We are yet to finalise the Series titles.
1. The Supernatural: Angels, demons, evil, spirit world, horoscope, miraculous etc….
2. Sex: Opposite Sex, Pornography, Relationships,
3. God: Who, where, when, how etc….
4: Death: Abortions, stillborn, life after death..etc…..
I asked the church the other day during church to txt me their questions. and issues they need answers to. Over the next 6 months we will bring answers from the Word of God to those questions and issues!
I think that’s being relevant!
Lastly, on a Vision Statement #8 we say:
“We see a Church a with a clear and bold biblical message that changes lives. A message that is relevant to every situation of our lives. A message that brings restoration and healings in every relationship”.
Our Goal is Changed Lives!!
