connecting our modern Christmas traditions with the first ChristmasBy Pine Tree Church of Christ

Today, Pine Tree celebrated its 60th anniversary as a church plant. This sermon explores how to define reality for a church, an exercise in descriptive theology. To do so, we look at external markers (attendance numbers through time & contribution) and internal markers (1 Peter 3:3-4 & 4:8-11).By Pine Tree Church of Christ

1 Peter 2:4-10 FOUNDATION: Is Jesus your cornerstone, or is He just your capstone? IDENTITY: Are you feeling out-of-place (rejected) and tempted to just blend in? Do you need to be reminded that you are chosen by God? PURPOSE: Are you embracing your role, as a functioning member of this church, to be priests in this community?…

1 Peter 1:3-12By Pine Tree Church of Christ

Peter refers to the Christians in Northwest Asia as "exiles" multiple times (or "strangers," "foreigners," "aliens," or even older translations "sojourners."). Why does Peter call them this, what significance did it have then? How might this apply to us today in the twenty-first century? 1 Peter 1:1; 17; 2:11-12; 5:13…

This lesson begins a new study on 1 Peter. We compare Peter's spiritual maturity journey from what we see of Peter in the Gospels compared to what he writes in this letter. Take that and then compare it to your own journey, how have you matured in your faith the last few years? Are you growing? Staying the same? Stagnant? Regressing?…

We've explored core discipleship all year long. You can't talk about core discipleship without a lesson on the core commands, or as we often call it, the greatest commands. It's exciting to narrow the focus and say, "love God and love people." It sounds great! But, how do we live this out? The focus of this lesson is the practical side of how we li…

Apostles Creed - "I Believe in the Forgiveness of Sins" Luke 7:36-50By Pine Tree Church of Christ

The Apostles Creed words it, "communion of the saints." It's interesting that the idea of "fellowshipping" with Christ's people is important enough to our faith that it made it in to the original core beliefs. In this lesson, I share a brief version of my own "Theology of Fellowship."By Pine Tree Church of Christ

Apostles Creed He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, buried, and descended to the realm of the dead... Who was Pilate and how did he make it into the Apostles Creed? What does it mean "he descended into hell" (or "descended to the dead") What do we know about Roman crucifixions? What is Cruciform Discipleship, this invitation that …
