Imago Dei Community

Description: As Kingdom Citizens, we are called to be agents of healing in the world. At the close of an election that has shown us how severely divided we are as a nation, God’s people have work to do. We must not lose sight of each other’s humanity—no matter how different our views and experiences—and practice loving each other with sincerity, honor, goodness, and devotion. Pastor Rick McKinley continues our series. 

Pastor Rick McKinley explores the book of Acts for insight about the relationship Jesus and the Apostles had to political power. As Kingdom Citizens, we continue to write this story by orienting our lives around Jesus and His reign.

The way we behave in the public square communicates who we are and what we believe to those around us. Do we act as if we are God-shaped and belong to Him? In this Sunday’s powerful and practical sermon, Pastor Michelle Jones explores what Scripture tells us about how we should speak, debate, win and lose as we engage others with different views and experiences.

Pastor Rick McKinley begins a new series that delves into the theology of the Kingdom of God. Our God calls us to be citizens of this Kingdom, a people redeemed by the power of Christ’s blood, a family that belongs to one another. What is this Kingdom of God, and what difference does it make as we engage the world we live in today?
