Four Marks of a Gospel-Centred Spirit-Empowered Community on Mission

The first church rapidly grew to more than 3,000 people, yet the quality and depth of its community was remarkable.
 
A gospel-centred, Spirit-empowered community on mission is characterised by Four Marks:
Devoted
Awe-Inspired
Generous
Growing
Is such church possible today? We believe it is. Join us.

The Coming Kingdom

St. Luke describes all that Jesus began to do and teach in the first volume of his work - the Gospel of Luke.
 
But the second volume begins with the anticipation of what Jesus continues to do as his kingdom comes.
 
In this introductory message, we learn
the Kingdom comes by the Word
the Kingdom comes in the Spirit
the Kingdom comes through the people

How to Get in to the Christmas Spirit

For Christmas to be more than a sentimental event, we need to be clear:
That Christmas happened
 
Why Christmas happened
 
Only then can we really get in to the Christmas spirit!
 
This message ends with a challenge to respond to Christmas by identifying with one of the characters of the nativity narrative: Magi, Herod or Mary.

Prayer // Approach

How should we come to God in prayer? What should our attitude or stance be?
 
The Bible paints a stirring picture of prayer. In the New Testament we see five facets as we approach prayer:
Boldness
Devotion
Persistent
Faith-filled
Earnest
 
The sermon ends with a vision of what could happen if we grasp the New Testament model of prayer and use it as part of the community on mission at Foundation Church Belfast.

Prayer // Invitation

Prayer begins with an invitation to come to God and receive from him.
 
Jesus said, 'Whoever is thirsty, come to me and I will give them living water.'
 
In this message we examine Jesus' life-changing offer and ask how we might receive this living water that quenches our deepest longings.

Resurrection Life: Lovers and Haters

Following on from one of Jesus' most amazing miracles - raising Lazarus from death - Mary gives Jesus an exquisite display of public honour and devotion. She pours costly ointment on Jesus' feet so that the whole house was filled with the fragrance.
 
However, Judas, looking on, thought this was a spectacular waste of money. As we delve deeper, we realise that Judas was in it for himself. He didn't really care about the poor, he was just using religious words as a cover for his own greed.
 
When we see Jesus as 'the Resurrection and the Life' (John 11:25) we either approach him with devotion and thanks, or we recoil in pride. In this message, we examine our options having encountered Jesus, and take steps forward in faith.
