What are your views when it comes to 1st Corinthians 5:9-11 and how it deals with someone living sexually immoral/ a homosexual lifestyle?
Is it wrong to hang out with a homosexual if they have shut out God entirely? Continue reading ‘“I Want Your Sex” Questions and Responses Pt. 3′
I have been struggling with same sex attractions since I was about 13. I have tried dating guys (I am female), but have severe panic attacks that random things set off. I was attacked by an older male when I was 11 years. Although I got away, I blame this instance for this. Continue reading ‘“I Want Your Sex” Questions and Responses Pt. 2′
We received many questions following the “I Want Your Sex: Giving Our Sexuality to God” series that we were not able to answer during the 5 week of the series. We took all the questions submitted, deleted the duplicates, and consolidated the questions that were very similar (or would be answered the same), and are now posting the responses. Continue reading ‘Responses to your questions from the series “I Want Your Sex.”’
WOW! During our open Q&A night following the series, “I Want Your Sex: Giving Our Sexuality to God,” we received an enormous amount of questions via text messaging. I just wanted to update everyone and let you know that we are currently going through all the questions, consolidating those that are redundant, and hope to start posting answers by early next week.
Grace be with you,

This week at Access (01-07-10)
Jesus told the disciples that if they left family, friends, home and possessions that they would receive 100 times as many in this life. Many evangelical leaders have tried to use this scripture to give weight to the prosperity movement that “guarantees” God’s blessing on one’s bank account if they give to a certain ministry. But is that what Jesus was referring to?
This week at Access we’ll be looking at this text and discussing what exactly Jesus is addressing. What’s interesting is that it has nothing to do with money, but everything to with the church. See you Thursday.
Grace and Peace,

Everyone has a story. Stories are the media that we use to communicate our lives to others. This week at Access I will be sharing a piece of my own story. From divorce, to a suicide, to drugs and alcohol to fuel my emptiness, all my life I had known about Jesus but never knew Him until I met Him lying on a water-bed completely overwhelmed with life and ready to give up.
I wonder how many people that we know are in that very same place. Overwhelmed and ready to give up. Going through life knowing about Christ, but never actually knowing Him. Maybe this person is you?
I want to invite you out to Access this week as we’ll be discussing the difference between knowing or Knowing. This is the perfect time to invite a friend or loved one to Access who needs to encounter the risen Christ.
Grace and Peace,
Brent
It has been confirmed, Donut Time 09 will begin Wednesday Sept 16th @ 9am at Marge’s Donut Den. Everyone is welcome to attend. This is going to be an on-going gathering on Wednesday mornings solely as a chance for many of us to connect. There will be no bible study but just good quality fellowship. And as I have always said, Americans like nothing better to talk over than food… and what’s better than a chocalate covered donut… mmmmm…. plus, donuts are cheap since you can get both a donut and drink for under $2.
Marge’s is located @
1751 28th St SW
Wyoming, MI 49519-2595
(616) 532-7413
See you at donut time!
b. (I’ll be the guy with the stack of donuts in front of him).
Due to the bad weather we will be having our end of summer cookout at ResLife instead of Lamar Park. Please come to the church and we will still be having tons of food, games, volleyball, and a movie. It’s a great time to connect, join some food, and build relationships.
See you tonight @ 7pm.
