In a follow-up to last week’s service on grace, Eric Kramer looks at the other side of the coin: faith/grace without works is dead. Grace (God at work) compels us and empowers us to do good works that were created for us to do.

On March 18, 2007 we had a small luncheon for those that are new to and/or interested in deepening their relationship with Beyond.

In this week’s teaching from Matthew 3, Art Morris explores our beliefs about baptism, what it meant in those days and the powerful impact that it still has for believers today. There is a short video clip from Nacho Libre making the point that baptism doesn’t save, it just shows — shows the world where you stand with Christ — watch it on YouTube here.

In our final teaching of our Directions series, Tim Howard calls us to our first communion as we look Upward to God and celebrate his love for us through Jesus. Tech Note: our annoying hum makes a return appearance for the first several minutes (I know, we’re working on it).
