In the second installment of images of the church found in the New Testament, we come upon the bride of Christ. This phrase is used a lot, but how often do we really look into what it means? While we are servants and laborers to Christ, he is also chosen to call the universal church …
Third conviction concerning worship by the iconic Rick Warren: 3. There is no correct style of worship. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 12: “There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.“ God gives us only …
We started a new series today at North Side called “Original Blues.” So many people are dealing with depression, sadness, grief, fear, or other emotions that cripple them. The Psalms are beautiful examples of how godly people dealt with honest emotions. We worshipped to the following songs today: Blessed Be Your Name – Matt Redman …
I’m working on a doctorate degree which means I have to write a whole bunch and read even more. I looked back over some of the stuff and I’ve written, and I think it might be helpful to our church to read. So I’m going to take some selections from some of the papers I …
Switchfoot’s CD, “Beautiful Letdown,” is still one of my favorite CDs of all time. It’s not often that you want to listen to a CD all the way through and rethink your life in the process. So many of Jon Foreman’s lyrics are crying out for people to live for more than what they are …

The phrase – “all we have left to do now is pray” – is one of the worst sayings in the life of a Christian. Tonight we talked at Fusion about how that shows the smallness of our depiction of God if we honestly believe that prayer is a last resort after we have done …
Today, we finished up our Satisfaction series at North Side. What a great way to begin 2008! The last four weeks, we have shown some of the areas from Solomon’s life recorded in the Book of Ecclesiastes where he tried to find satisfaction but could never find any. As we read through the book as …
2. You don’t need a building to worship God. For 15 years we didn’t have a building of our own. But I guarantee we did a lot of worshipping during that time. The Bible says, “The God who made the world and all things in it, since he is Lord of heaven and earth, does …
