To Serve Man

Strangers in a Strange Land

Easter celebrates Jesus' resurrection, his victory over death, and our invitation to new life. But in a world where there's no such thing as a free lunch, how can we trust that God really wants best for us? A classic Twilight Zone episode and a Ke$ha song help us see exactly why the resurrection proves God is good and worthy of our trust!

From Series: "Strangers in a Strange Land"

Great Science Fiction offers visions of a utopian future where humans have achieved peace and prosperity through progress. But Jesus' resurrection challenges the assumption that humans can save ourselves. In this series, we'll examine some of the most famous sci-fi visions of the future against the image of the Church we find in 1 Peter and see how the Spirit at work in us is the true hope of the world.

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!
