CITYLIGHTS

|| Timothy Bayne ||  God has been committed to the development of a Garden city in partnership with His people since the dawn of time. And since the dawn of time, mankind has been plagued with an innate temptation to go against those plans. Join us as we journey from the First Day of Creation to Jesus' Last Supper with His disciples, only to see that God has only ever been merciful, gracious, kind, and above all, good.

|| Chris Armfield || Does your life bear a distinction between sacred and secular things? If so, where did you arrive at this perspective? It's possible that your thinking may be more influenced by Greek philosophy than the Scriptures. 

|| Chris Armfield || The way that you see yourself is a microcosm of your understanding of how God sees you. For heaven and earth to meet in your life microcosmically, your beliefs must line up with God's macrocosmic reality. 

|| Chris Armfield || When the people of God understand the purpose of God both personally and corporately, and take His purpose seriously, heaven will unstoppably saturate the earth. 

|| Oliver Wong || Life is shorter than we think and more significant that we know. Are you living your life on accident or on purpose? What will you be remembered by? Are you living for what matters most to you? Two pivotal conversations with Jesus openely point us in the direction of our purpose here on earth. Today, Jesus is calling us to a focused and undistracted life, to live for what matters most. 

|| Chris Armfield || In this message, we discover that during seasons of silence God is still working. 

|| Chris Armfield || In this message we uncover the many ways that God has spoken throughout history and is speaking today.

|| Chris Armfield ||  In this message, we raise the sign posts of partnering with God while we're here on earth. As the church, we are partners who extend the wisdom and beauty of heaven here on earth.  This message is also the spiritual launching of the swamp rabbit property in Greenville, South Carolina.

|| Chris Armfield ||  In this message, we unearth and explore what the word "greater" meant each time it was used in the Gospel of John.

|| Chris Armfield || In culture, if we don't know something, the human tendency is to remain quiet and to try and make sure that no one else knows that you don't know something. In the kingdom of God, not knowing something and asking questions about it serves as a sign that you know who and whose you are. 

|| Chris Armfield || In the presence of earthly trouble Jesus offers people the present tense reality of His Father's eternal influence in their lives.

|| Oliver Wong || In the Upper Room Jesus was not only announcing his death, but also the death of the Old Covenant Law. Under the law God's people could draw near but never draw close to the Father. What does it mean to live in relationship with the Father and not religion? What does it mean to live in the intimate living room of God?

|| Oliver Wong || At his final meal on earth, Jesus sat down with his closest friends along with his betrayer. In this intimate exchange we see come to see just how Jesus responds to his enemies. 

|| Chris Armfield || If standing above the rest of the crowd was rightfully available, and serving was also an opportunity, which would you choose? Jesus was able to be the most influential human in history, and yet he chose to serve in every opportunity that arose. How might understanding the purpose and drive behind Jesus' words and actions affect how we interact with those around us?

|| Oliver Wong || Jesus' public ministry comes to a close with the results Isaiah prophesied years prior: the Light shined in the darkness but the darkness couldn't comprehend it. Jesus performed many signs yet many didn't believe.  In this study we look at what causes us to see Jesus and what causes us to miss him, even when he's standing right in front of us.
