System Failure

We live in a culture ruled by fear. Everyone – especially those in charge – want us to be afraid because our fear gives them control. When is fear healthy? When does it become an idol? God’s promises to Israel offer us hope in a fearful world. We can trust the God who promises to be with us and not let fear order our steps.

From Series: "System Failure"

We often treat sin as personal moral failings but Sin has an institutional component too. What institutions in our culture form us to be sinful? And how can the Church act as a counter-institution that forms us to be holy?

This year, Beavercreek Church of the Nazarene turns 60 years old. Over the last 60 years, we’ve made Jesus famous in our community by Bridging Church to Neighborhood. As Jesus has for us, we’ve gone into our neighborhoods, taking Jesus’ love with us and showing our community in tangible, practical ways that Jesus loves them.

Now it’s time to take the Next Right Step. What will Beavercreek Nazarene look like in the next 60 years? What kind of church will we become? For the month of September, we explore our new vision, imagining together how it will shape our announcement of the Jesus’ Good News in Beavercreek, Ohio. We want to become the Church that connects and engages the unchurched in our neighborhoods.
What does that look like? Join us as we dream together!
