The Kingdom Come:  The Gospel of Matthew

Led by Bill Holston                                                     Meets in the Fellowship Café 

Israel is occupied by an oppressive Roman government and the people are looking for a deliverer, someone to bring about the kingdom.  Revolutionaries shout for a revolt.  Others make deals with the Romans, and the religious leaders load the people down with rules.

 

Onto the scene, God’s anointed brings the message of the Kingdom of God through the one we’ve come to call Jesus Christ.  The Gospel of Matthew contains the clear and life changing teachings of the Messiah.  Join us as we study this remarkable book.

yardstick: measuring ministry

“Everything’s bigger in Texas!”, they say, and that couldn’t be more true when it comes to churches. With less than 8% of the population, we’ve got 13% of the nation’s megachurches. Ask attenders about the size of their church and the average answer is 1170—even though half of all churches in America have less than 75! Think about some typical ways of measuring success in business and it’s mostly all about the numbers. So what about churches? Can you measure the success of ministry by the number of butts on the benches or bucks in the budget? A lot of people do. I’ve even caught myself being taken in by the lure of “the bottom line”. This week we want to apply the lessons of chip 2.0 to churches and ask ourselves, “How does God measure a ministry? What yardstick will he use to decide if our church, Fellowship Arapaho, is successful in his eyes?”
