Worship Defined

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:25:00 GMT

Our main vision at GCC is to instill in every person a lifestyle of worship. But what exactly is worship? What does it look like, and where does it come from in our lives. Dive into Chronicles with us this week as we explore the definition of worship.

Christ: Full of Grace and Truth

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 19:17:00 GMT

This week we explore who Christ is through the experiences of John the Baptist. Sometimes we approach Jesus with the wrong attitude of worship, questioning what he can do for us, rather than knowing who He is.

The Domino Effect: Sharing Grace - Bobby Marcum and Michael Rogers

Mon, 9 Nov 2009 18:57:00 GMT

The Domino Effect: Sharing Faith - Bobby Marcum and Michael Rogers

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 23:34:00 GMT

The Domino Effect - Joe Rollins

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:45:00 GMT

Ananias followed God's command and obeyed. His simple obedience led to the transformation of Saul into Paul, the writer of most of the New Testament. His writings and ministry led to the explosion of the Church into the world, and it's still changing lives today. This Domino Effect can and does happen today. Who's touch in your life led you to Jesus? Who can you be "Ananias" to in your life? Join us as Joe Rollins teaches out of Acts.

Head2Heart2Life: Conclusion

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:17:00 GMT

Whew! We have come to the end of our study of Ephesians and the end of the Head2Heart2Life series. This week we take a step back and look at the story of God in our lives. As our sword, the story of God is eternal, and we can reach others with it. Join us as we illustrate this through worship, prayer, and teaching.

Head2Heart2Life: Transform Your Life - Week 6

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 21:03:00 GMT

Mon, 5 Oct 2009 16:39:00 GMT

Head2Heart2Life: Transform Your Life - Week 4

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:45:00 GMT

Wed, 9 Sep 2009 23:30:00 GMT

Head2Heart2Life: Reform Your Heart - Week 5

Tue, 1 Sep 2009 22:11:00 GMT

This week as we learn to reform our hearts, we look at the analogy of a table. One of the most difficult sections of the book of Ephesians is where Paul tells the church to submit to one another. More than just within a marriage, we are to submit to one another in the church. But what does that look like? How can we do this the way God intended. Join us as we explore.

Tue, 9 Jun 2009 18:48:00 GMT

We reach verse 4 of the 23rd Psalm this week, discovering what it means to walk "through the valley of the shadow of death." God takes us where we need to go, leading us like the good Shepherd. In His path we'll find what it is we need from Him.

No Invitation Necessary - Michael Rogers

Tue, 28 Apr 2009 16:55:00 GMT

Newly hired senior minister Michael Rogers shares with us the second message from Luke 7: 36-50. We, like the woman who washed Jesus' feet should be willing to be servants of Christ with our all. And unlike the pharisee who looked down upon this woman, Jesus offers himself to all, no invitation necessary.

By Invitation Only - Michael Rogers

Tue, 21 Apr 2009 19:03:00 GMT

Our current pastoral candidate, Michael Rogers, shares his first message with GCC this week. Using the story in Luke, Michael outlines how Jesus responded to the woman who washed his feet with her hair. Some of us have much to be forgiven for, while others of us feel we have little debt to pay. May we never forget that Jesus died for our every debt, and that each one of us shares the same invitation to Christ.

Why You Should Entrust Your Life To Jesus Today - Ross Brodfuehrer

Mon, 13 Apr 2009 18:16:00 GMT

So many things can occupy the "throne" of our lives. We allow them to take the head position, dictating our every decision. In this Easter message, Ross argues why Jesus should be in this position in your life.

NOTE: There was a video in the message that contained no spoken words, only a music track with text. The audio has been included, but to experience the video completely, view it here.

Will The Real Jesus Please Stand Up? - Ross Brodfuehrer

Mon, 6 Apr 2009 21:08:00 GMT

Ross Brodfuehrer joins us again for the Easter season. In this Palm Sunday message Ross confronts again the concept of our mental image of Jesus. The image that we have of Jesus often reflects how we live our Christian lives. Though it may contain truth, if there are parts of our picture of Christ that are lacking, we leave room for Satan to work in our minds.

The Bystanders: Transformed by the Cross - David Baird

Thu, 2 Apr 2009 15:50:00 GMT

In the last of his series, David Baird shares with us yet another perspective of the cross of Jesus from those who witnessed it. This time we learn of the transforming power of the cross as experienced by those who discovered it as bystanders.

*Note: This message contained a video of a musical performance entitled "Could You Be Messiah to Me?" from Southeast Christian Church's Easter pageant. The audio from this video is not included in this podcast.

The Disciples: Distressed by the Cross - David Baird

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 21:47:00 GMT

David Baird joins us again, this time outlining the reaction of the Disciples to the cross of Jesus. The Disciples scattered like sheep when faced with the reality of what the cross meant. How will we respond when faced with the cross?

The Soldiers: Unmoved by the Cross - David Baird

Mon, 16 Mar 2009 18:59:00 GMT

Note: This message contained a video with no spoken English text that depicted scenes from Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." This has been edited out of this audio-only recording.

Nearly 2000 years separate us from Jesus' death on the cross, and consequently we can become numb to the reality of it. David Baird joins us this week beginning a series outlining different reactions to the cross of Jesus. May we not be like the soldiers that crucified Jesus, unmoved by the cross.

Faith Perspectives - Joe Rollins

Wed, 11 Mar 2009 20:33:00 GMT

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:49:00 GMT

This week we learn a few ways to begin to live in the Spirit and not the other two.

3 Ways to Live: Week 1 - Ross Brodfuehrer

Wed, 18 Feb 2009 23:20:00 GMT

Press On - Mike Tolle

Tue, 6 Jan 2009 18:20:00 GMT

It's in our time of hardship that we have the opportunity to show God to the world. If we take the example of Paul and learn to press on, we can be a tremendous influence on those around us.

180: week 3

180: week 2

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 15:24:00 GMT

We learned last week that repentance is a foundational spiritual principal. This week we focus on the act of personal repentance. Many of us think we've repented once, and now it's taken care of. But we find that it goes much deeper than that, and that we are to be in a constant state of repentance. Join pastor Chad Doerr as he discusses turning away, or doing a "180," from those things of which God has convicted your heart.

180: week 1

Tue, 19 Aug 2008 18:41:00 GMT

Shift

Wed, 4 Jun 2008 20:34:00 GMT

Departing from our Holy Spirit series, this week we discuss an important topic. There are many things that can creep into our lives and our church that hinder us from doing what God calls us to do.

The Holy Spirit: week 5

Tue, 27 May 2008 17:00:00 GMT

The Holy Spirit guides us and calls us to do or not do many things. Do we listen? There is a constant battle going on that is between our desires and the desires of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit: week 4

Mon, 19 May 2008 21:14:00 GMT

The Holy Spirit: week 3

Mon, 5 May 2008 21:57:00 GMT

The Holy Spirit: week 2

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 21:51:00 GMT

This week we continue to explore the person of the Holy Spirit. We see by studying the Acts of the Apostles that when they were filled with the Holy Spirit, the received an inhuman boldness. May we also possess such supernatural boldness through the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit: week 1

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 19:41:00 GMT

Jonah: We Are Jonah

Mon, 10 Sep 2007 19:44:00 GMT

Join us as Chad Doerr begins a new series that will take us through the book of Jonah.

The book of Jonah is more than a story about a prophet who runs from God, gets thrown off a boat and spend three days in the belly of a great fish. It's a story about sin and disobedience and spiritual arrogance and running from God's will. And yet it's also a story about second chances and turning back to God and His amazing grace.

So yes, the book of Jonah carries the name of an Old Testament prophet but you need to understand that this story is about you. We are Jonah!
