Music

We maintain a few shared playlists on Apple Music & Spotify. They serve two purposes: To allow you to learn songs before we sing them, and to listen to a wider array of songs that we have sung corporately for the life of Good News.

Financial Support

The stewardship of our finances is a tremendous—and often overlooked—area of our lives where we can faithfully proclaim the gospel. Giving strengthens our devotion to Christ and frees us to live open-handedly with the gifts God gives us. We trust in Him and His provision instead of our perceived self-sufficiency. As people of faith, we give faithfully and generously.

Give Your Money

Volunteer

Just as we can donate from our finances, we can also donate our time. In this way you can help serve people inside, and outside, the church body. We have many ways in which you can serve:

Ways To Give Your Time

  • Greeting people (new & old)
  • Coffee Corner Setup & Service
  • Lawn maintenance & care
  • Teaching Bible Lessons to kids
  • Watching babies, so the mother & father can attend the service
  • etc...

Romans 16 is an unusual chapter in the bible in that it is mostly a long list of names. Most of verses 1- 15, and then again from verse 21-23, there is a constant cataloging of people often followed by descriptions of them.

What About Children Being Baptized And Taking Communion?

October 20, 2018
by Isaac Johnson

As believers in Jesus Christ, we realize that we are constantly called to grow; and constantly called to be more and more like Jesus by way of a process that we call sanctification. The more we grow, the more we desire for others to grow in the knowledge of Jesus; in the hope that they become Christians. And for parents, that desire is especially strong for their children.

The timing of this article is admittedly awful. In one sense, answering this question in January could be the least helpful time to do it. My apologies, but I honestly didn't think about addressing this topic until now. And now that it's in my head and heart, I don't want to wait for 10 or 11 months, and then try to remember to bring it up at the end of 2019.
Shame Is Underrated

Shame Is Underrated

It seems to me that lately I've heard a lot of gobbledygook from Christians about the topic of "guilt and shame" and I wanted to write an article to help us makes sense of these things.
