Chestnut Ridge Church
Beyond - Part 4
Over the past 30 years, God has accomplished amazing things through Chestnut Ridge Church, but what might He want to accomplish in the days ahead? What opportunities do we have to impact this city, state or nation for Christ? Beyond is a new and visionary series, examining the challenges and opportunities we have before us. We'll talk about where we feel God is leading us as a church and what part each of us may be able to play. The key verse for Beyond is Ephesians 3:20-21: "...to Him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us—to Him be glory..." It's time to go beyond where we've been...to become more.

Beyond - Part 4 [October 29, 2017] Tim Haring

We don't realize we are to "put God on display" with our lives




[Shalom] means completeness,” “soundness,” “well-being.” …It may mean material prosperity or physical safety. But also it may mean “spiritual well- being.”
–Foulkes
[Shalom is] total well-being, prosperity, and security associated with God’s presence among his people.[1]
