Every Sunday, we gather corporately to sing together. But have you ever wondered why? What does God uniquely intend for his people to accomplish or gain as we gather together each week to worship Him through song?...
Many people have an impulse these days to rise up and do something about what’s happening in the world. But often, we are unaware what we can or should do about a given issue. Few of us are actually in a position to change something or make a difference on global, social issues, but we know intuitively that doesn’t mean we should just sit back and do nothing. So what should we do? What can we do?...
We are not the first generation to feel very strongly and passionately about our issues. But it sure seems that the political and cultural climate of our day has created an atmosphere of intense “convictions” over things that should engender far more discussion than the knee-jerk cancellations that are the new normal.

When we do that, unity will be preserved and the gospel will enjoy a place at the center of Christian fellowship, where it belongs....
Perhaps like many of you, I swallowed hard and felt sick to my stomach a few times yesterday as I learned that the benchmark price for crude oil fell below zero for the first time in history. As I scanned the news feeds and listened to news media, a common word was used…”Unprecedented…Unprecedented…Unprecedented”.

Keep ReadingWe believe God calls us to go to our neighborhoods and to the nations to make disciples. One of the ways we can play a part in reaching the nations is by partnering with those in the field who are already laboring among unreached people groups and in hard to reach places. This past November, a team of 11 men and women representing 4 SG churches went to Kathmandu, Nepal. O...
