The Gospel’s Chain Reaction
This morning, Pastor Mark will be preaching part 2 in our fall sermon series, “The Glory of Grace: Living in the Power of the Gospel.” Today’s message, titled “The Gospel’s Chain Reaction,” will dive into Romans 10 and explore how God’s grace is spread through the simple yet powerful act of hearing and sharing the Gospel. We invite you to open your heart as we worship together and learn more about the amazing grace that transforms lives.

Can I Get a Witness?
Just as a star witness can decide a court case, followers of Jesus are called to testify to the light he brings to our lives. Our “Illuminate” Christmas series continues today with Pastor Mark’s message, “Can I Get a Witness?” Turning again to John 1, we will examine the powerful testimony of a man named John and hear a challenge for testifying to others about the Light Jesus can bring into their lives.
Greater Things Are Coming
It can be hard to imagine, but Jesus said his followers would do “even greater things” than he had been doing. As we think deeply about Jesus’ words from John 14, Pastor Mark will unpack the practical ways the Lord is leading Hillcrest into “Greater Things” in part 1 of a 2-part mini-series on God’s vision for Hillcrest, “Greater Things Are Coming.” Communion will be observed during today’s service. Please prepare your elements to participate from home.
Jesus Is for Everybody
The United States has the largest Christian population in the world, but did Jesus just come for Americans? If not, then why don’t more people in nations like Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, or Pakistan follow Jesus? In his message “Jesus Is for Everybody” Pastor Mark will explore Jesus’ answer to these questions (and more) in part 8 of our series, Jesus Stories with Luke.
