The Preeminence of Jesus in the Church

Published: Sept. 9, 2012, 10 a.m.

b'This week we\'re beginning a new series called "This Is Church." Its going to be a fantastic opportunity to remind us of the great privilege we have to be the Church of Jesus. I pray that we can renew our clarity of mission and purpose. I pray that we will leave this series, confident of who we are in Christ, and what we need to accomplish together. This Sunday, there is really only One place to begin. We need to answer the question, who is the focal point of the church? For whom does the church exist? Here\'s one last thought. Throughout the series, our Life Groups will be taking a break from their normal studies and working through discussion questions that are designed to flesh out the subject of each week\'s sermon. If you\'re not in a Life Group, I encourage you to visit with Pastor Jeff. You don\'t want to miss this key component of God\'s vision for His Church.'
