​ ESV for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

​ ESV for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

It’s our heart that here a Concord, that you are made to feel “Know, Loved, and that you Belong.”

Scripture tells us:

Text:

We are also a Church where we understand the “radical grace” received through faith in Jesus Christ.

And because of that, it’s our heart here a Concord, that you are made to feel “Know, Loved, and that you Belong.”

No matter where you are on your faith journey: thinking about taking a step, just showed up, not thinking about what you are stepping into; you’re just starting to step; or, you’ve been high stepping with Jesus for a while.

The point is, if that’s you…know this, you don’t have to clean up to come here.

As a matter of fact Scripture echos that:

‌ ESVbut God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

That means you don’t have to get it all figured out before you come.

You don’t have to put on a mask to be accepted here.

You come and we figure it out together…no matter where you are in your spiritual journey.

Whatever season you are in, we know the struggle of this sinful world…but we also know that our God is bigger than our circumstances.

So you don’t have to get it all figured out before you come.

The Big Idea: Throughout time the people of God have tried to limit Him and box Him in, yet He is: infinite, all powerful, righteous, just, and purposeful to meet us where we are in our messy lives.

Also today, we have a FAMILY BUSINESS MEETING!

We know that the business meetings have not traditionally been everyone’s favorite time, so we tried to recognize that and change it up a little because we think it is critically important that our covenant members know and be a part of what is going on at Concord.

So Covenant Members be sure to hang-out, we are going to eat, laugh, cut-up, and have a family talk, where you know what’s going on.

Whats new, the state of where we are as a church, and what is coming down the pipe.

You’ll notice inside the program along with the insert is a connect envelope.

Later on in our service we will worship through a time of offering together; both guest and member.

During our offering portion of worship we will give all of you a moment to fill out the connect envelopes, that also serve as a place you can give any money or financial gift that you would offer to the Lord.

During that time you will have an opportunity to pray over your gift to the Lord as well.

Simply place the Lord’s gift in the envelope; fill out the connect info and during our offering worship, you can place both, the insert and the connect envelope in the offering plate as it passes.

Regardless, we desire to connect with you and help you get plugged in.
