Every Nation Logan - Sunday Services

Owned

Join us at Logan as we continue our current series, Owned.  This week we are joined by Pastor Taulu Schuster from Every Nation Christian Church Southside (New Zealand) discussing how we build strong foundations as followers of Christ. If you don’t learn to build an honest foundation in God you can fall into the trap of compromising your walk for christ. Solid foundations bring longevity.  What foundations do you currently have that you have chosen to live out in your journey in Jesus? 

And they offered great sacrifices that day and rejoiced, for God had made them rejoice with great joy; the women and children also rejoiced. And the joy of Jerusalem was heard far away. - Nehemiah 12:43 (ESV)

Owned - Building The Builders

Join us at Logan as we continue with our current series, Owned.  This week Pastor Henry talks to us about how we can lead by example.  Leaders must set the patterns through their lives if they want to invite others  along for the journey.  When we decide to take ownership of our lives, we can take responsibility of a different lifestyle. Do you own what God has called you to do?  How are you building your life and what are you focusing on?  How different would our lives be if we lived with a healthy fear of God?

Now the leaders of the people lived in Jerusalem. And the rest of the people cast lots to bring one out of ten to live in Jerusalem the holy city, while nine out of ten^[a] remained in the other towns. And the people blessed all the men who willingly offered to live in Jerusalem. - Nehemiah 11:1-2 (ESV)

On The Job - Generosity

Join us at Logan as we continue our current series, On The Job.  This week Pastor Henry shows us examples of generosity and how we should live in light of this. How generous are you with the blessings God has provided you? Generosity is not just about money but is more to do with the condition of our heart. The generous heart of God wants us to bless those around us and give generously.

This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.  Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. - John 15:12-13 (ESV)

On The Job - Friend Request From Jesus

Join us as we continue our current series, On The Job.  This week Pastor Henry talks to us about Biblical friendships.  Are you a friend of Jesus?  How are you at loving others? Have you experienced the love of Christ in your own life so you can love others? Do you see value in the friendships around you?  What if we changed our perspective of friendship and the way we approach making friends? What if we built friendships the way Jesus modelled it?

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. - John 15:12-13 (ESV)

On The Job - In The Gritty Is The Integrity

Join us at Logan as we start our new series, On The Job.  This week Pastor Henry teaches us to be good stewards to what God has called us in the jobs we do. Our job is not just a pay check or putting a roof over your head but is a calling from God given specifically to you. Who are you when no one is looking?  Where are you when it comes to carrying the burdens of your life?

But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Behold, because of me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my charge. He is not greater in this house than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?” - Genesis 39:8-9 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - The Grey Areas

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything. Have you had difficulties deciding what is right and wrong? This week Henry Peterson encourages us to seek God’s word to determine His will in the grey areas.  Are you willing to let go of everything that causes you to stumble and ask the Holy Spirit how you can honour God in the situations you are faced with?

For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. - Romans 14:7-8 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - Unrighteousness

Join us at Every Nation Logan as we continue with our new series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Fetuna Lee helps us to not only recognise and appreciate the blessings but also the blesser.  God wants you to have a blessed life.  That is God’s heart for you.  The righteousness of God is accounted to us when we believe in Jesus Christ.  Will you turn in every area of your life to worship the One who has never given up on you?

For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. - Romans 1:21 (ESV)

This Is Us - The Ambassadors Life

Join us at Every Nation Logan as we continue with our current series, This Is Us.  This week Henry talks to us about our church value outreach.  What does this look like to be an ambassador and reach out to others in the community?  Are you purposeful with how you position yourself in the community?  Where are you going to make contact with other people?  If you are a believer in Christ then you have been called to be an ambassador of Christ.

 Immediately they left their nets and followed him.  And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them. Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him. - Matthew 4:20-22 (ESV)

Awesome God - Jehovah Shalom (The Lord is Peace)

Join us as we continue our new series about the characteristics of our Awesome God.  This week Henry Peterson discusses our Lord of Peace, Jehovah Shalom.  The peace of God in our lives can calm our inner turmoil and will enable us to obey God with courage, even in fearful and uncertain times.  In those moments God wants to see us have peace in all that we are going through.  Regardless of our flaws, God can still use each and every one of us for His Kingdom.

Now the angel of the Lord came and sat under the terebinth at Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress to hide it from the Midianites. And the angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him, “The Lord is with you, O mighty man of valor.” – Judges 6: 11-12 (ESV)

The Lord's Prayer - When God Leads

Join us at Every Nation Logan as we continue our current series, The Lord's Prayer.  This week Henry advises what can happen when we trust God and allow Him to lead us where He needs us to be.  The goal of the enemy is to deceive us and bring doubt, so we need God’s protection against temptation and evil.  When God leads, it's always the right way.  It may not necessarily be the shortest way, but it's the best way for us.  

And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” - Matthew 4:3-4 (ESV)
