Hey Christ Church,

I was so richly blessed seeing a few pictures and hearing a few testimonies for our first discipleship group gathering on Tuesday evening. What a precious gift these living room moments are going to be for our body! I strongly believe God’s going to use YOU as the church to do exactly what we have been hearing from Ephesians, to lovingly build this body up in love and to serve each other’s progress in Christ, who is our head and our treasure. What an incredible calling to participate in salvation together!

Nothing Sweeter

Christ Church Kids

It’s hard to describe how excited I am about this upcoming Sunday and the launch of Christ Church Kids! It brought tears to my eyes as I remembered Paul’s eagerness to serve the Philippians’ progress and joy in the faith, because I have seen that same heart at work in you as you serve our children. Few things are sweeter than that.


For now, we plan to have the younger class (8 months- 2 yr) each week and the older class (3-7 yr) every 1st & 3rd Sunday. If you have children participating, please come a little earlier to get a security tag before the service. And please join in praying for God to pour out His grace through this ministry, asking that all they hear would take deep root in their little hearts and minds and would bear lasting fruit in the years to come.

Pastor Bart on Philippians

God intends to do God size things as we open Philippians each week. And certainly, there is no greater miracle in the human soul than to experience genuine joy in the person and work and presence of Jesus Christ. That’s the greatest miracle that there is for a human soul — to rejoice in the person and work and presence of Jesus.
That’s the “Joy in Jesus.”


I ask you to be praying that the Holy Spirit would make Jesus more glorious in our eyes, that our bond together as those who are bound together in him would only deepen and strengthen and that our witness to an outside world that we belong to Jesus Christ would only be emboldened.

Our Thanks to Pastor Bart

How much better assurance can we, as believers, have than to be reminded of the joy we have in Jesus — even as we live through these tumultuous times of both worldwide and national crisis?


This sermon series on Philippians is the perfect, assuring antidote for these unusually challenging times.


Thank you for being a pastor who loves to preach the joys contained in the Word along with the guidance and assurances of Jesus Christ.

A Message From Pastor Bart

 I loved getting to open up Philippians last Sunday! What a treasure this book’s going to be!

 I mentioned on Sunday three prayer requests that I’d love for us to be praying for this series and said I’d get those out via email. So, here were the specific requests!

 Please pray that the Holy Spirit would be making Jesus more glorious in our eyes, that our bond with one another would only deepen in Him and that our witness would be emboldened. Driving to church each Sunday is a great time to be lifting those things up for our gatherings.

 Also, please continue to pray for our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. My heart is burdened for them these past few days. Hebrews 13:3 says, “Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.” And we want to be heeding that for Christians who are now suffering and dying for their faith in Jesus.

 Prayer always makes a difference, but there are moments when we feel just how crucial that is. So, thank you for being a church that loves to pray.
