Acts 2:37-41 The turn of a calendar year provides us with an opportunity to take inventory of our lives, evaluate, imagine, strategize, and plan. We often do this as individuals, making resolutions; or as companies, establishing goals. But this is something we’d like to do as a church family this year! This first Sunday of […]
1 Thessalonians 5:12-13/2 Timothy 3:16-4:5 We’re so thankful for God’s kindness to Christ’s Covenant Church in giving us Marc Goodwin as our new Lead Pastor. Join us as Pastor Ken Mellinger, the director of our region in the Sovereign Grace family of churches, brings a challenge to Pastor Marc as he “officially” begins his new […]
Nehemiah 11 & 12 God does extraordinary things with ordinary people, doesn’t he? In Nehemiah’s day, Jerusalem would not have been a glamorous place to live. Moving there would have been like moving to a bombed-out city. Yet many of the returnees to Judea did just that. Ordinary people moved to Jerusalem because that was […]
Nehemiah 10 Many of us struggle to make commitments, whether it’s commitment to an employer, a diet, or a significant other. We may feel tempted to think of commitment in negative terms, as if we’re “closing doors,” “boxing ourselves in,” or “eliminating options.” But, as we will see in Nehemiah 10, when it comes to […]

Nehemiah 3 Are there parts of the Bible that you sometimes find boring? We’re hesitant to admit it – it sounds sacrilegious – but there are parts of the Bible that we would just as soon skip over, aren’t there? Is Nehemiah 3 like that for you? It seems like a bunch of names that […]
Ephesians We’re excited to introduce our new church mission statement this week! As a church, we believe God calls us to “glorify Him by growing together in Christ as a caring community of disciple makers.” That may sound like a straightforward statement, but it’s packed with great truths and challenges for us. So come learn […]
Truth Versus Love Would you rather be part of a church marked by truth or part of a church marked by love? In our current culture, most people – even Christians – would say that we have to choose, that truth and love are somehow oppositional. Well, this Sunday at Christ’s Covenant Church we’ll be […]
Right Behavior & Right Belief in Our Church Timothy is one of those guys who lurks in the background of the New Testament. His name appears in so many different places – as part of the narrative in Acts, one who delivered letters for Paul, or even as a co-author of sorts. But two of […]
Our Mission Ahead Tomorrow marks the beginning of a new year, which, for many of us, is a time of reflection. We look back over the past year to evaluate our lives, and we look to the future with resolve to make positive changes for the days ahead. This Sunday, we as a church would like […]
