Relevant Church
In the first installment of the “I Love My Church” series, Lead Pastor, Joel Cauley shows us that our church is truly a place to belong. The world can feel dark, calloused, and unforgiving. You may feel as if you’re doing this life alone; but you’re not. Church should be more than just a place to go on Sunday mornings. At Relevant Church we are a community, a family, a home, and a tribe. We are a place where God changes lives and people move forward. That’s why we love our church!
Luke 9:23 NIV
Galatians 2:20 NIV
The best phrase to describe the essence of Christianity is:

Matthew 11:20-24 NIV
1. They allowed the supernatural to become ordinary.
2. They allowed what is sacred to become an inconvenience.
3. They allowed their callings and privileges to become obligations.
I think Coke is better than Pepsi…..but Diet Dr Pepper is straight from heaven
Ford is better than Dodge, but both have to bow to Chevy!
I have to have coffee durning the day……
I want to go to Bora Bora one day.
I love my church.
I am a mess. On my own I am powerless over my own ego and my life is unmanageable and I need God.
Left to myself, I will waste my one and only life in stupid ways.
I will damage and neglect relationships. I will make idols of success and my reputation. I will dishonor my sexuality.
I will use words, which I’m supposed to use for God, to deceive people.
I will use people for my own advancement when I’m supposed to serve the church. I will serve myself instead of serving others - instead of serving you.
Greed will rule my wallet. Resentment will fill my heart in a nanosecond.
Pride will govern my choices. and selfishness will dominate my life.
Left to myself, I will spend a pathetic existence trying to polish my outer image and hide so no one can see what an egocentric sinner I am on the inside.
If successful in my will, I will go to the grave a respectable fraud.
I’m a mess and I need God…….and all the people said ME TOO
The only way to fully embrace “ME TOO” is by fully embracing “Its Not About Me!”
