Are you living with purpose? Do you feel fulfilled in life?

Are you ready to embrace the incredible mission that God created for you? Are you ready to live the incredible, fulfilling life that God has for you? It is found in Acts 9 and it is very exciting that God allows us to be part of it. We must move FORWARD with a mission!

Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - John 13:33-35 (John 3:16; 13:33-35; 15:13; 1 John 1:6-7; 3:1; 4:8-9 & 12; 1 Corinthians 13:4 & 8; Romans 5:8; Galatians 5:22-23; Hebrews 10:24-25)
If someone had to describe you, what would they say?
We are often described by the dominant characteristics that stand out about us. Our identity comes from what we do or how we act and live.
In John 13, Jesus was preparing to leave the disciples and He was giving them some last instructions. Jesus was teaching the disciples about their identity. He was speaking to them as the family of God and what they represented. Jesus commanded them that the world would know that they were His by the love they lived out towards each other. Not just any love, but God’s love!
This love would change the world if the world could experience it through us! Do you live out God’s love? Are you ready to embrace the identity that God has called us to live? We must move Forward with the love of God!

On a daily basis we face extreme spiritual warfare. We experience this through marriage conflict, depression, division and constant resistance as we try to move forward through life.
While Jesus was training the disciples, He described His plan that would push back the powers of darkness. He called them to part of something that Satan would have no power to overcome.
The good news is that we are also called to this same plan. We can live victorious when we embrace this amazing plan to move forward with the power of God. Do you know what it is? Discover what that plan is as the church.
