Are you new to Christ Community? We’d love to meet you. Please join Pastors Randy Lovelace and Greg Davis immediately following worship in the front lobby.

On Easter Sunday we gather to celebrate that, through his sacrificial death, Jesus conquered sin and death. The divine proof that Jesus accomplished this is his resurrection from the dead—the foundation of our faith. Expect this service to be loud, full of light, and include lots of declarations of "Christ is risen, he is risen indeed!"

Details
We will offer two identical services at 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m.
Both services will be livestreamed
No Communion will be served
Nursery and preschool childcare will be available for both services
Kids are encouraged and welcome in both services

Join us for a Celebration Hour at 10-10:50 a.m.
We’ll have cookies, a Kids Resurrection Cross, Flowering Cross, Family Photo Ops, and Church Family fellowship.

This worship service remembers the darkest day of Holy Week—the arrest, trial, crucifixion, death, and burial of Jesus. In this service, we re-hear and rejoice in the story of these events as told in one of the Gospels. We also sing songs that magnify the reality of Jesus’ death, when he, the King and Passover Lamb, was willingly sacrificed to bring us the peace of God’s forgiveness.

All senior adults are invited to a lunch & learn featuring special guest speaker Papa Joe Bradford.

Born in a small country town west of Nashville, Papa Joe Bradford grew up in great poverty with his grandmother, mother and sister. 

As the years passed, his life became increasingly turbulent – experiencing the entrapment of poverty, imprisonment for computer hacking and a volital kidney disease. 

The Lord would later use these very struggles, to develop in him a heart for the poor and oppressed.

Papa Joe and his wife, Denise, founded a non-profit organization, Elijah’s Heart  whose mission is to show love and bring aid to underprivileged children and their families. 

In what started as a small gesture of love to neighborhood children, Papa Joe and Denise have developed a ministry providing children with basic necessities, academic tutoring, and emotional support. 

Papa Joe’s life is the inspiration behind the 2012 five-star feature-length film, Unconditional. Papa Joe has also released an autobiography, A Walk of Love, which takes readers on his personal journey towards finding his true purpose in life. 

In addition Papa Joe is an inspired teacher and loves the Word of God.

Join us for what promises to be an inspirational time.
