To Know and Introduce Him Part II with Pastor Mike: 

This week Pastor Mike emphasizes the goal of our faith is to truly know God. This relationship is far greater than any religious achievements, as Paul states in Philippians 3:4-8, 10, where he considers everything else as loss compared to knowing Christ. Unlike human tendencies to admire outward fancy and grandeur, God values simplicity and obedience. The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17) and God's direct interaction with Israel (Exodus 20:18-21) reveal that He desires reverence, not spectacle. Furthermore, God uses ordinary people to accomplish His purposes—people like Noah, Abraham, Moses, Gideon, Ruth, Esther, Mary, and the shepherds. As 1 Corinthians 1:26-29 affirms, God chooses the weak and lowly to carry out His divine plan, demonstrating that true greatness in faith comes through humility and trust in Him.

Love is the Greatest with Pastor Mike: 

Pastor Mike emphasizes that love is the foundation of our faith. Jesus commanded us to love one another (John 13:34-35), reflecting God’s greatest example—giving His Son for us (John 3:16) and Christ dying for us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8). Love is more than words; it’s action (1 Corinthians 13:1-8, 13). Without it, even the greatest sacrifices mean nothing. So, how will you reflect God's love today? Love isn’t just for a holiday—it’s a lifestyle. Every day is an opportunity to share Christ’s love.

To Know and Introduce Him Part I with Pastor Mike: As Christians, the focus of our faith is not on striving to meet a checklist of duties but on deepening our relationship with God. The Christian life is not something we have to do; it’s a privilege we get to embrace (1 John 5:3).
