New Series Begins Sunday

A few weeks back a message series idea began to stir in me surrounding racism and the church.  As I studied, I found that throughout the church’s Biblical history the issue is larger than just race…the church is divided over culture, social status, economics, and much more.  In other words, the prejudice of church people goes beyond racism.

Why is the Kingdom so divided when God placed the members in His Church just the way he wanted?  Why do church people elevate themselves and put others down?

A new series begins Sunday by asking “What do you bring to the table?”  Some things you bring to the table–or the Kingdom of God–is awesome and showcases the grand variety God enjoys.  But with great diversity, there is a great temptation for favoritism and partiality.  Those dangerous attitudes have no place at the table.

 

TC welcomes Byron Sellers

This weekend at Team Church (April 22nd)  we have a special guest.  Let me introduce you to Mr. Byron Sellers who has recently been on missions in the Dominican Republic providing wheelchairs to the poor and disabled.   He works with Joni & Friends, the ministry of Joni Eareckson Tada.  You can see some photos from the Dominican Republic here on Joni’s website.

Byron recently preached to the inmates at Kershaw Correctional, where I chaplain.  Here are just a couple of minutes of his testimony becoming paralyzed at 14 years old, and how he knows that God is working through his disability.

This Sunday, please welcome Mr. Byron Sellers to Team Church.
