Devotion


Let's look at two of the reasons that made the First Church so compelling?

1. They committed to authentic community. 

We are designed to be in relationship.

The church is where you can experience relationships the way they were meant to be.

They “devoted” themselves.. The church is where you can be loved & accepted.

2. They gave God wholehearted worship.  

Do we show our appreciation for athletes more than we do God?

Romans 12:1-2 (proper worship is being a living sacrifice) Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.


The church is where God gets the glory He deserves.

Be wise today and always - give God all your devotion.
