TODAY’S SERMON
Learning Contentment | Titus O’Bryant
Contentment is one of those difficult to define qualities that’s even more challenging to put into practice and actually experience. Growing in this quality is a continual process that can’t be rushed. Whether you are very aware of your discontent or feel mostly contented right now, all of us have room to grow in this part of our character. How would you define contentment and how can we live a contented life?

WE’RE CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF INFLUENCE!

Join us in celebrating what God has done!

Over the past 35 years, LifePoint Church has influenced countless people to find and follow Jesus. From our very beginning in 1987, we’ve desired to be a church that spreads God’s love to the world. Since then, we’ve seen thousands of stories written –  thousands of lives transformed by the message of grace. And you have been part of that – thank you!

Expanding Our Influence

As we look back and celebrate the way God has used our influence over the past 35 years, we also look forward, asking Him to multiply our influence into the future. During the month of October, we are looking to expand our influence as a church family. We’ll be inviting each person to commit to one or more small, simple ways to do that – PRAY for our church, INVITE someone to come with you, GIVE financially, or VOLUNTEER to serve. Missed a week? It’s not too late to join in!

DEVOTIONALS AND ARTICLES

STORIES OF INFLUENCE

As we recognize LifePoint’s 35th anniversary, we are celebrating the ripple effect of more than three decades of influence in and through the people of LifePoint. We highlighted five different families and inviduals who have made an impact through their influence. This week, our final story features Harry & Debbie Perrine, who have been part of LifePoint since the very beginning!

DEVOTIONAL SERIES

Why do we celebrate milestones in our spiritual journey or in our families? Our writing team has been exploring the various reasons we celebrate – from baptism to child dedication, from communion to celebrations of life and even family gatherings.  Each of these occasions and milestones can become an act of worship when we look at them with fresh eyes.
