TEACHING

Sermon Series: The Church | SUMMARY: The Church is God’s plan to change the world—and there is no backup plan. From the blueprint to the bride, from the body to the bold mission, Scripture gives us a bigger vision of what it means to belong. The message? The church isn’t a building you attend; it’s a people you become. Together, we are called, chosen, and sent—living stones with a beautiful future and a big welcome for the world.

Oct. 12: A Blueprint:  What if church isn’t what you think?  When most people hear “church,” they think of a building, a service, or a Sunday routine. But what if we’ve been missing it?  For the next six weeks, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the Bible’s most powerful—and most misunderstood—truths: what the church really is, and why it matters for your life.  This Sunday we start at the beginning, with the blueprint. Before you can understand the church’s mission, you have to see God’s design. And once you glimpse it, you’ll realize—this was His plan for you all along.

Join us in-Person at 9:00am (acapella) or 11:15AM (instrumental) or Livestream at YouTube.com/Clearcreekcoc or clearcreek.online.church.
