EGC Messages

This morning Pastor Jared shared a special message about our personal and corporate response to the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation.

As we open a new study in the Gospel of Mark, Pastor Jim will help us understand how “The Gospel of God” (Mark 1:14) includes both the Good News that God is reconciling people to Himself through the substitutionary death of Jesus, and the Good News of how God is going to renew and remake the whole world through Christ. Join us this Sunday and discover the beauty of what life was made for.

This weekend we hosted Andre van Zyl. Andre is a native of South Africa and has been active in ministry around the world since July 1980. Andre leads and is involved with several leadership networks in the United States and abroad, and strongly believes in an Alliance of Kingdom Leaders to bring in the End Time Harvest.

This week, Pastor Jared spoke on prayer and how prayer forms each of us. Our individual prayer life can guide us into deeper relationship with God and the people we come in contact with everyday.

We are continuing our Seculosity series this week. Pastor Jared is going to talk about the idea of "Jesusland", and how coming to church can become a religion and cloud our relationship with Jesus.

Let's talk politics. Did you know we can love and disagree with our neighbor at the same time? This Sunday we will continue our Seculosity series as Pastor Jared speaks about politics and how we interact with others. Our society looks to how others view the world, even looking to politicians for answers. As Christians, we need to find our identity and our story in Christ and not be defined by others around us. Come expecting as Pastor Jared unpacks what this means for us in our daily lives.

Join us as Pastor Greg helps us see how technology can shape the way we see the world. He will be continuing our series on Seculosity and talking with us about technology. How do you relate to the tech in your life, and what wisdom does the Word of God offer each of us in this area? It's going to be an "enlightening" experience, you won't want to miss.

Join us as Pastor Jim helps us see how even Romance and Relationships can become a religion as we look to others to tell us we are “enough.” Come and discover where you can find your One True Love.

Welcome 2020! While it’s clear that institutionalized Religion in our Country is declining, it does not mean that Americans are done with religion. Americans may be throwing off the various forms of “capital-R Religion,” but they are filling the void with “small-r religion” or “replacement religion,” grounded in everything from Politics to Parenting, Work, Technology, Food, and Romance; things we traditionally view as “secular.” Almost everyone treats something as a religion. For example, are you an Android or Apple person? Most likely this question immediately invokes a response in your family. Join us this Sunday as Pastor Jared helps us see how busyness can drive us crazy, as we look to “what we do” to tell us we are “enough.”

We are concluding our Advent series together. We will be taking time to look forward to the return of Christ, enjoying time in worship, and celebrating the Lord’s Supper as a family before the start of a new year

Joy to the World, the Savior reigns! Let men their songs employ While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains Repeat the sounding joy Repeat the sounding joy As we celebrate joy this Advent Season, Pastor Jim is going to share about centering our hearts on the Kingdom of God. Righteousness, peace, and JOY can be realized in each of our lives through our living union with Jesus Christ.

As we continue to explore the significance of Advent during this Christmas season, Nathan Sanders will be speaking about the Love that was given during Advent. The love of God is one of the most important truths in all of Christianity, but it’s more than just a truth we can know—the love of God is meant to be something we experience! As followers of Jesus, we are being transformed from the inside out by the power of his love!

This Sunday we continued to explore the significance of Advent during this Christmas season, Pastor Jim  addressed the cry within each of our hearts for PEACE and helping us rest and rejoice in the comings of Jesus, The Prince of Peace! The true meaning of PEACE will be unfolded as we recognize that the Kingdom Jesus inaugurated in his first coming will be fully consummated when he comes again!

We are exploring the significance of Advent during this Christmas season. Advent is a time where we re-live the expectation of Jesus coming as a baby and look forward to his coming again. Jesus entered a world that was desperate for hope and became this for us. This week Pastor Greg will be speaking about Hope in this second week of our Advent series.

Isaiah 52:7 states, "How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness." This week Pastor Jared will be beginning our Advent series and will explain what Advent is and how God comes in the darkness as a light to the world.

Daniel Newton is an inspiring leader and teacher out of Redding, CA who is the founder and overseer of Grace Place. His ministry team for Grace Place is marked by the prophetic, healing, and a teaching gift that focuses on who you are in Christ by grace through the finished work of the cross.

We have enjoyed sharing our Grow devotional with you and reading through Acts together. The next season we walk into on Mission with God is going to be amazing. We are so glad we are able to do it together. This week we have special guest speaker Pastor Mike Cavanaugh with us. Join us this Sunday as we celebrate 30 years of Elim Gospel Church.

As we have been going through this series we have learned how the mission of God applies to each of the campuses and how we are working with God to advance the kingdom of God. This week, Pastor Jared will be walking us through how we are living in Acts 29 times and will be speaking about finding ourselves in the story of God.

This Sunday, Pastor Jared spoke about the church plant in Ephesus, in Acts 19. Each of us has started our relationship with Christ at different points in our lives. Sometimes, without knowing it, we start living vicariously through others faith and lose what it means to our own. Faith is personal and God wants you to have your own story to live out and share with others.

This Sunday, Pastor Jim will speak about the church plant in Phillipi, in Acts 16. Paul and Silas travel to Philippi and learn important principles of God's guidance. Psalm 46:1 says, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Join us as we move into more understanding of our position as God's children in peace as His grace and wisdom guide us through our difficulties.
