Tonight we continue our 2018 Wednesday Night Summer Series! Our series theme this year is “Summer Travels,” as we study some of the best-known biblical ‘travels’ within the bigger story of God’s work in His world. Tonight’s lesson is shared by David South, preacher with the Woodland Hills (Cordova, TN) Church of Christ, entitled “Stopping in Samaria: Jesus and the Woman at the Well.”
This morning we begin a 3-week study on the Holy Spirit, an important study for our 2018 “Transformed” theme. We start today with the basics: Who is the Holy Spirit? What is His role, and what does the Bible emphasize most about Him? What did Jesus say He would do?
This morning we worship in both English and Spanish, something we do twice a year to remind us of the valuable unity we share in Christ as a bilingual church family. Today’s lesson from Elias explores what Jesus was doing in John 4, and what it teaches us about sharing the gospel in our own lives…
Today is our annual Family Day! This year’s Family Day theme is “Family Transformations,” and in our morning service we are studying what the Bible says about Jesus’ family. The New Testament tells us about an amazing change in Jesus’ brother James and in Jesus’ entire family…what happened, and what can we learn from it?
Tonight we begin a few Sunday nights on some “God Is” passages in the New Testament, reflecting on the nature of God and what it means to our faith. For our first study: let’s explore what are we reminded about God from Jesus’ statement that “God is Spirit…”
It’s our annual “Two Languages, One Faith” Sunday, celebrating our identity as a bilingual church family! Today, Elias and Tim bring short lessons on “Keynotes from Jesus,” concluding the theme of the Spanish-speaking seminar of this weekend. The topics this morning: sin and faith. Let’s consider some words of Jesus worth remembering and reflecting on…
Tonight Derrick Maranto from Aberdeen, MS, reminds us of how Jesus trained His apostles, and challenges us to apply some of those same principles to become disciple-makers ourselves…
Since His life was the most world-changing life ever lived, you would think that the funeral of Jesus would have been a big event. But it was far from big, with only a handful of people present. In fact, it felt like a big step of faith for the two men who helped bury Jesus to even be there. Who were these men, and what do they teach us about our own steps of faith?
Today we celebrate Great Oaks’ 25-year Homecoming! The theme for the weekend is “celebrate.” We studied “Celebrate: Forgiveness” in our Bible classes, a study of Jesus’ parables in Luke chapter 15. Here in our morning sermon, we follow up the Luke 15 study with a look at what the prodigal son came back to. What can “Celebrate: Home” tell us about God and the church?
We have been studying the 4 gospels and the men who wrote them. Tonight, we overview the Gospel of John, written by a man with a special place in Jesus’ life…
