Meeting Needs / Sharing Christ is a perspective on how an individual and more importantly, a church, views its purpose and ministry in the world. Based on the principles set forth in the book by Donald Atkinson and Charles Roesel, this series of messages challenges the church to get outside the protectives walls of the church and actively touch lives personally at their point of need  - because the need is genuine - and then use that experience as an opportunity to introduce that person to Jesus. Follow the progress of these six sermons that invite believers to join God and other believers in Meeting Needs and Sharing Christ.
This series of sermons is an indepth look at a portion of the Sermon On The Mount known as the Beatitudes. These have been referred to as the principles that reflect the behavior of those who follow Christ as believers. Jesus does not make casual suggestions but rather presents strict demands on those who would follow Him - "No Spin." Using the contemporary news program - The O'Reilly Factor - this series looks at how to live an uncompromising life in a compromising world.
Everyone has stress in life . . . in fact stress is an evidence of life. But the problem is how we respond to stress. Using the most well known and beloved Psalm 23, this series looks at how David learned to handle the stress of life by trusting in The Lord as his Shepherd. The principles he learned to live by are just as valid for us today. We too can develop a trusting relationship with Jesus as our Shepherd and live a less stressful life.
Ever feel like you are at a dead end in life . . . or even at a fork in the road with the need to take a different direction from the one you now travel? But which way? Looking at the life of Solomon through the book of Ecclesiastes, we focus on the 'roads' he took and where they led him . . . and the conclusions he formed. Through this series we learn how to find God's direction that leads to a life of meaning and purpose.
Using this variation on the title from a popular television series this series of messages reveal God's strategy for developing healthy families in a broken world. Desperate Households is a series about life, love and marriage; going beneath the surface to consider the struggles that every married couple faces…with life, relationships, everyday struggles, communication, sex and raising kids.
LOST is one of the most popular television programs ever. Finding themselves alone on an unknown island the people must begin to relate to each other and learn what is really important in life. This series is about purpose. God has a plan for each of us. We do not get to determine our circumstances but only how we will live for God . . . whatever the circumstances . . . wherever He places us.
NEW LIGHT / NEW HOPE is the name of the Preaching Ministry of Pastor Carlos Peterson. The series seen here as well as others are available through DVDs or CDs by contacting Christ Community Church by phone or email.
The  story of Easter is well known to most people. What is less well known or understood is why the events unfolded as they did - and just as importantly - what these events mean to us who live two-thousand beyond them. The death and resurrection of Jesus were not accidents, nor were they simply, chaoic events beyond anyone's control. through it all God had a plan. He still does. It's all about that "Third Day."
A 'motto' is an expression of what one believes. Our church motto is 'Changing Lives on Purpose.' This series explores that belief by helping you learn how to become a person of influence by living your life on purpose. The Scrptural basis comes from Matthew 5:13-16. . . to be 'salt' and 'light.' God challenges us become intentional in our mission to disciple the world, by 'Changing Lives On Purpose.'
What do you struggle with in life? Relationships? Children? Marriage? Money or the lack of it? Job . . . Career . . . Layoffs . . . Downsizing? Or maybe your struggles are much more intense: Truth . . . Authority . . . Purity . . . Integrity . . . or Personal Peace and Contentment. Life is a struggle. And sometimes we can feel as if we are left to handle our struggles alone. But that is not true. The Bible reveals God's involvement in every area of our lives, even, or especially in our struggles. In the Ten Commandments God addresses the greatest struggles we encounter in life. This series will focus on how God helps you overcome the 10 Greatest Struggles Of Your life
