Deeper in Relationships

From June 2021 to August 2022 we will go deeper in relationships with people outside and inside the church body to intentionally share the grace and love of Jesus Christ with them and to grow together as his disciples.

The Gospels are full of stories of Jesus intentionally engaging those inside and outside the family of God. We want to know and obey the words of Jesus and we also want to emulate his lifestyle. We will be a people who are willing to get out of our comfort zone and make building relationships a higher priority in our everyday lives. We know that in our post-Christian culture it is a poor strategy to sit back and wait for people to attend our worship services. We challenge every person at New Life to meet, talk to, get to know, and go deeper with at least 1 person within our church family and 1 person outside our church family each month!

In the coming months you can anticipate sermons about reaching out to others with the love of Christ, evangelism training taking place in Life Groups, continued times of prayer, and an overall focus on building relationships with people in the six counties all around us.

CERTAINLY YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT JESUS BEFORE, BUT WHO IS HE REALLY?

Monday nights in the month of January we are going discover who the true Jesus is. You will be fascinated to learn that Jesus broke the status quo of his day and time and was wildly different than most people’s expectations. Whether you have been in church a long time or have never been before, you are invited to join us beginning Monday, January 10 to DISCOVER THE REAL JESUS!

Family Movie Night

Saturday, January 22 | 6:30pm

One of the most popular books of all time is John Bunyan’s Pilgrim's Progress. This powerful allegory, written while he was in prison for his faith, has been reanimated into 21st century graphics. This movie will be a great opportunity for your entire family to attend and watch as “Christian” takes the most important journey of his life. All of our New Life families are invited to bring your whole family to this event, and invite some friends. There will be popcorn, snacks, and the opportunity to win a copy of Pilgrim's Progress at the event.

God of Freedom

Women’s Bible Study

Tuesday mornings at 5:45am, beginning Feb 1

Every book of the Bible tells us what is true about God. In Genesis we see Him as Creator and Covenant Maker. In Exodus we see Him as our strong Deliverer who sets us free from sin and death.

In this 10-session study of Exodus 19–40, journey through the story of how God shepherds His newly-liberated children into an understanding of what their freedom means: lives consecrated for service to God and to one another. Revisit familiar scenes of the giving of the Ten Commandments, the idolatrous worship of a golden calf, and of the intricate details of the tabernacle. And with fresh perspective, ask what these stories teach God's children today about how to live as those set free.

In every page of the Bible, learn to see Christ through the stories of His people. And discover how the God who created you and made a covenant with you will deliver you from death to life, for His name and renown.

Call the church office (886-1977) or email Sherry (sherryd@newlifeefree.org) if you would like us to order a workbook for you.
