    Return To Your First Love | Pastor Brian Cromer - Queen City Church | 06.2.2024

    This message challenges us to return to our 'first love' - the passion and devotion we had when we first came to faith in Jesus. Using the words of Jesus to the church in Ephesus in Revelation 2, we are reminded how easy it is to lose our zeal over time, going through religious motions while our hearts drift away from true intimacy with God. The solution Jesus gives is to remember how far God has brought us, repent of anything drawing us away from Him, and redo the spiritual practices that kept us close to God at first. Ultimately, returning to our first love is vital not just for our own souls, but for the spiritual vitality and influence of the entire church. When we rekindle the fire of our faith, revival becomes possible.

    Following Jesus in an Election Year // How Jesus Engaged With Politics | Jordan Smucker | 05.26.2024

    Today’s teaching delves into Jesus' revolutionary approach to politics, highlighting his ambiguous yet profound response when questioned about his allegiance. We learn that while Jesus acknowledged the necessity of engaging with earthly authorities, he emphasized that our ultimate devotion belongs to God alone. The teaching encourages us to seek a balance between participating in the political process and recognizing that true transformation comes from within, through a heart changed by Christ.

    Following Jesus in an Election Year // Politics, Jesus, & Formation | Jordan Smucker | 05.19.2024

    We are reminded that as followers of Christ, our ultimate goal should be to love like Jesus, even amidst the divisiveness and challenges of an election year. While we may hold different political views, our shared faith in Christ should unite us and shape our interactions with others. By recognizing that both anger and fear are often used as political tools, we can instead choose to anchor ourselves in the confidence and peace that comes from trusting in God's sovereignty. We are encouraged to stay aware of how our politics are shaping us spiritually and actively seek to be formed in the image of Christ, using our political involvement as a means to demonstrate His love to the world. 

     

    "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self-discipline."  2 Timothy 1:7

    Revisiting Love | Jordan Smucker | 05.12.2024

    As we ponder the nature of love, we recognize its transformative power - not just on hallmark occasions, but woven into the fabric of our everyday existence. Reflecting on Jesus' example of sacrificial love, we challenge ourselves to mirror that selflessness in our actions. This message is an invitation to embrace the fullness of love and to understand how deeply you've been loved can profoundly shape how you extend love to others. Join us as we explore these thoughts, leaving you inspired to find serenity in love's embrace and empowerment in its practice. 

     

    "So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples." John 13:34-35

    On The Table // The Problem of Evil | Jordan Smucker | 05.05.2024

    Wrapping up our "On the Table" series, we explore the radical teachings of Paul in Romans 12, where we confront the enigma of overcoming malice with kindness; that holding onto unity and Jesus' exemplary life's work becomes ever more apparent. Learn how the simple, yet profound act of kindness can ignite a moral awakening, and how we, as a community, can rise above societal and political divides to reflect the light of justice and reconciliation.

     

    Romans 12:21 "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

    On The Table // God’s Vision For Sexuality - Part 2 | Jordan Smucker | 04.28.2024

    Explore the multifaceted nature of love through the lens of the Greek language, where four distinct words paint a complex picture of this fundamental human emotion. We steer the conversation towards understanding how a society's quest for eros, or romantic love, can overshadow the more enduring agape love demonstrated by Jesus. With insights from psychiatrist Miriam Grossman, we acknowledge the often-overlooked emotional repercussions of casual relationships. Listen as we confront the challenge of aligning our modern views with a life-affirming Christian approach to intimacy and connection.
