"Connect. Grow. SERVE."
Text: Ephesians 4:1-6, 11-16
The last of a three-part series, we explore what it means to use the right tools in the hands of the right person for the right job. The elements of service are so tightly woven into the fabric of the Christian faith that it's essential for every believer to be utilizing their gifts and talents in service to the Master. To do anything less is to miss out on all that He has for you. Pastor Jon concludes the message by exploring the relationship between the three core values that we've been discussing: Connect. Grow. Serve.
Pastor Jon Twitchell brings weekly biblically-based sermons to the Cape Elizabeth (Maine) Church of the Nazarene. You're invited to listen in through this podcast. Get more information at www.capenazarene.org.

Connect. GROW. Serve - June 9, 2013
"Connect. GROW. Serve"
Text: 2 Peter 1:3-8
If we are truly connected to God, then it stands to reason that we will grow. But Peter indicates that we can't simply sit back and expect this growth to occur, but that we must "make every effort" to add to our faith. We also realize that we don't reach a point of "arrival" but that we have these things in "increasing measure." All of this for the purpose of being effective and productive in the Kingdom of God.

"CONNECT. Grow. Serve."
Text: Romans 5:6-11
What is "The Church"? The first in a three-week series, we explore our core values and mission.
