TUESDAY TALK - March 10, 2015

We are in the middle of a 6 week series focused on building the core "Teams" of the Bloomington-Normal campus. Previously, we had discussed the core "Building Blocks" which are the heart of our new campus, but these teams are the implementations of that vision.

Reminder of the Building Blocks
1 - Culture of Invitation
2 - Community of Hope
3 - Continue Jesus' Ministry
4 - Commitment to Excellence
5- Carriers of the Gospel of Grace

TEAMS
1) Connect
2) Family
3) Kingdom
4) GROUPS

• 1Thessalonians 5:11 …encourage one another & build one another up, just as you are doing.
• Philippians 2:1 …if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.
• Hebrews 10:24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
