Teachers -- God's Gift to the Church
  Rev. Neil Culbertson, Senior Pastor
05-Oct-08 "John the Baptist--Pointing to Jesus"   Pastor Jeff Nelson, Ministry Associate
Preaching Series on the Lives of the Kings
Practical Lessons for those who have been called to be a Kingdom and Royal Priesthood in Christ in our day. This series is aimed at reminding believers that we are presently "seated in the heavenlies with Christ our King" and that in a very important sense we are "co-rulers" under Him, called to extend his kingly influence in our small "kingdoms" and circles of impact. We will consider what strengthens the kingdom and what undermines the kingdom as we study I & II Kings together.
