Celebrating Kids! Christian
Education Sunday
We all love our kids! We also love the kids as they fill our church hallways with activity, laughter and life. We celebrate that today. When God talks about children His heart is full of the same joy. But He goes further in the depth of HIs love than we can imagine. He looks out over the generations and uses words like heritage, faithfulness and forever to describe his children. Today we look into God's heart for the ages and for our kids.

Jesus The Resurrection and the Life! - The 7th of John's 7
signs - John 11 (Part 2)
The seventh sign of the Gospel of John is the most powerful, the most public, the most impactful and the most profound of all the signs given by Jesus. John reveals three motives of Jesus in telling of this compelling event. Two of them, His love for those who follow Him and the glory of God being revealed in the circumstances of life, we discussed last week. The third motive is actually the foundation for all the signs.

The Lord of Life - The 7th of John's 7
signs - John 11 (Part 1)
Here it is - the capstone of the 7
Signs of John's gospel - the raising of Lazarus from the dead. The Apostle
Paul writes "The last enemy that will be abolished is death." As we turn
to John 11 and peer into this event, we see Jesus turning toward the last sign,
the power over death and the power of resurrection.

The Bread of Life - Jesus the Light of the World!
- John 9 (Part 1)
You didn't seek it out. YOur circumstances just led you to this place. In so many ways, you were just living your life. Then Jesus came by. Everything changed in a moment. Like the blind man in John 9, vision is made clear and bright. But the world doesn't get it. Even family refuses to see the work of God. And there you are...stuck in the middle, left to decipher the work of God in this lonely yet glorious and brilliant place.

Embracing the Mystery - The Perfection of Christ
Fully God and fully man. At the core of our Christmas celebration is the amazing truth that the God of all creation has set aside his glory and taken on human flesh. He did it in a white-hot pursuit of you! God is so amazing in his love for us that He sent His son Jesus, to restore us to the love of the Father. Looking at Jesus we see who God is and we also see what it means to be fully human. Today we look at the first half of the equation - the all encompassing glory of God.

God's Economy and The Blessings of Generosity
In his second letter to the church in the city of Corinth, the Apostle Paul addressed the issue of giving and generosity. The church had made a commitment to take a special offering for the church in Jerusalem. In his instructions to the church, we can take away timeless truths about how to give as well as the work of God that takes place in the context of generosity.

Giving to God from the First Portion
The familiar text of Malachi 3:8-10 speaks of bringing the 'tithes and offerings' to the Lord. What is the difference between a tithe and an offering? Does this truth apply to New Testament believers? Any discussion of generosity needs to include a stop at the topic of how God calls us to give in worship.

Exemplifyng the Gospel
Bottom line? God is glorified in our midst when people hear the gospel, turn toward Jesus and allow Him to transform their lives. When that happens, lives are established in Christ and the gospel. How are lives transformed by the Holy Spirit in the midst of community? Here are 4 dynamics involved in that spiritual transformation.

Mission of the Church
What is the mission of the church? A seemingly simple question that draws out any number of responses. Evangelize? Teach? Feed the hungry? Worship? Here at Valley, we have a rich history and strong value of being a missional church, focusing on sharing the gospel with the world around us. What are the implications of our vision to ‘give away’ the Truth of Jesus Christ?
9-20-2009
Foundation of Truth
At the core of our mission statement is the truth of Jesus Christ. Here at Valley, God’s Word is the foundation for all that we do, teach and strive. This message looks at the precious gospel of Christ and why it is the power of God.

Revelation 22:6-21
The study of prophecy, as we have seen, is an amazing panorama of God's Truth, future events and man's relationship to God. It is not however, simply a study of future things. It is meant to have a real impact on the way we worship, perceive God and live out life daily. It is fitting to ask ourselves, after the Imminent Horizons series, "How do I live in light of these great truths?"

We're Not Home Yet
Jesus said that He has gone to prepare a place for us. The Apostle Paul tells us that we can not imagine all that God has in store for us. The Apostle John was given a vivid picture of heaven and told to write it down so that others can catch a glimpse of it. Heaven is a place and a concept with many definitions today. The Bible doesn't give us every detail of what we can expect in heaven, but neither is it silent on the topic. Today, we explore the fascinating future that God has planned for His family!
