"....One Another"


Don't miss out on our latest series, "...One Another". Faith without action is useless. Does it sound harsh to you? Come find out what Jesus says when it comes how to love, serve and encourage one another.

The Christian life is activated when we put the "...One Another" passages into practice.


Why "...One Another"?
  1. Remember, We Are Better Together!

  2. Faith Without Action is Useless.

  3. Pratice Makes Perfect.

We are to "Love...One Another" - Deeply, With Devotion and with Honor, Kindness & Compassion. Want to hear it? - Listen online at http://tinyurl.com/5zlent

Monday Night Reflections

So here I am blogging on a Monday night! Normally this is my family day - and there was some family time today! However - we are about to go on vacation so Monday and Tuesday will be work days this week!

A couple things I'm reflecting on tonight!
  • Last week was crazy - we did a facility agreement with Legacy Traditional School to host their jr. high for a few weeks until their site is ready. Lots of moving. Lots of work but a win-win!
  • Sunday was the start of a landmark series for us, "...One Another"
  • "Love...One Another" - week one - Wow! God really took me by surprise - insight about commands in a "Don't tell me what to do" world and revelation that if we really do the work of the Father while we are here - eterenity is just a continuation of what we've already learned.
  • I keep falling more in love with Jesus and he keeps stretching me in ways I didn't know I could stretch.
  • Seasons of a church are challenging but I love it!
  • Perry Noble http://www.perrynoble.com you challenge me to blog more - how do you do that? I love that you blog 5 times a week and you speak your mind! It really is time that we stop being so politically and religiously correct and say what needs to be said!

More to come! - with love Pastor Scott

Oasis - Sunday Night Reflections

Wow! Another week has come and gone! Tonight I'm reflecting on the day that just was....

The refections and thoughts are random and here they flow:
  • Oasis - what an incredible team you are - we love you!
  • Today I saw part of our future as Josh Grubbs spoke in our services! He is passionate and rightly divides the word of God!
  • Josh - you are an incredible sport to develop a life application msg from a movie entitled "Thunderpants"
  • Vision lunch was smaller than the past months but always love this time - so personal and rewarding to share our story and the passion God has breathed into this church!
  • Hydrate youth and Submerge (4th & 5th) started back tonight and what a start! - yeah God
  • A 3rd service is on the way - so will it be Saturday? A 3rd on Sunday AM? - we'd love to hear your feedback.
  • Saturday svc means we need more volunteers - are we ready to take this on?
  • So - as a finale for "At the Kids Movies" - we are doing "Cars" - spread the word and invite your friends - it's gonna be an awesome way to end a very thought provoking series
  • 2 Diamondbacks games this week! One with Johnny and one with family and new friends from Oasis - we had an awesome time!
  • Gotta love Olympics!

It's now after 9 PM and on Sunday night that mean shut-down and relax! Soon to be zzzzzzz!

Be blessed and have an awesome week! - Pastor Scott
