House of Living Stones: Part 3

Jim Crouch

If you ever done even minor home improvement, you’ve probably had to deal with building codes.    At the most basic level, building codes ensure houses are built to safely withstand all the environmental world has to throw at it.  Code typically dictates the material specifications and structural requirements…both very crucial when you think about earthquakes, hurricanes and our recent 3 feet of snow.

Its much the same with the spiritual house Peter talks about. The spiritual house must also weather all this world has to throw at it.  In chapter 1, Peter presents certain ways of life (building codes, if you will) that create structural integrity and stronger bonds with one another, and ultimately, stronger bond to The Foundation.

Listen in as Stan highlights these 5 dispositions and hear how we can use them to build a stronger house fixed securely to The Foundation.

House Of Living Stones: Part 2

Jim Crouch

“The wise man built his house upon the rock…the foolish man built his house upon the sand.  The rains came down and the floods came up…”  Which house was still standing in the end?

Peter discusses a similar idea in I Peter.  Peter continues his metaphor of us, as part of the church, being rocks used to build a spiritual house.  This spiritual house is set upon the Living Rock, the firm foundation.  A foundation that holds strong through the worst of storms.  As the building blocks of that house, the more contact we have with the Living Rock, the more immovable we become.

Listen in as Stan digs deeper into how we cement ourselves to the Living Rock, and how the cracks and blemishes actually strengthen the bond to the Foundation.

Pathways’ Ski Trip!

Stan Graham

The Pathways’ community is headed to Ski Liberty on Saturday, February 27th. We’re leaving from our Granary Road facility at 3:00 PM and will be skiing from 5-10 PM.

Skiing, snow-boarding and snow-tubing – we’re doing it all. So this is an event for the whole family (anyone can tube – you just have to be able to lie down!).

See you on the slopes!

Pathways’ Business Meeting

Stan Graham

We don’t do it very often because, well… we just don’t like business meetings. But every once in a while we have to have one. Sunday, February 28th is the day. The meeting will take place immediately following our regular Sunday morning service – and if tradition holds – it won’t last long.

So, come on out, find out what’s happening, and pitch in to make our community better. We need you – really, we do. See you Sunday!

House of Living Stones: Part 1

Jim Crouch

In this message, Stan kicks of a new series entitled House of Living Stones. This series is a walk through the book of Peter.

In his book, Peter uses the idea that the church is house of living stones. And, if we as a the Church are going to reach the margins of society, and those pushed away by the institutional Church or never interested in the Church…this  House of Living Stones metaphor is an ideal way to demonstrate Jesus’ power, love, grace and mercy in the world. Listen in as Stan explores I Peter 1.

Hanley’s Fitness

Stan Graham

Physical exercise is valuable, but spiritual exercise is even more valuable:
It promises rewards both in this life and the next.
- 1 Timothy 4:8

Pathways is partnering with Hanley’s Fitness to spread the Good News about Jesus. Every Saturday evening at 5PM Hanley’s makes their gym available for free to anyone who wants to come. They follow the open gym time with a Bible study aimed at answering real questions and meeting real needs. It’s a great opportunity to share what Jesus has done (and is doing) in your life.

Hanley’s is also offering what I consider to be the best health club value in the area. New members can join for just $299.99 a year. That’s $0.83 a day! You can find out more about the gym at their website: Hanley’s.

Hanley’s is located at 121 Industry Lane in Forest Hill. Their phone number is 410.836.0770. Tell them Pathways sent you!
