Vineyard DNA June 29, 2025 John Elmer, Founding Pastor “The Original Story” 1. Great things are born in a hunger for God. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Mark 10:47-48 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33 2. As we cry out to Jesus, he engages u...

I Believe June 22, 2025 Chris Honess, Lead Pastor So What?!? 1. Jesus died for our sins. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 1 Corinthians 15:3 2. He was raised to new life. That he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appears to Cephas, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most...

I Believe June 15, 2025 Chris Honess, Lead Pastor One Spirit The spirit of fear brings division. Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.” Acts 15:5 The Holy Spirit brings unity. It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: Acts 15:28 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me...

Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 1. Pray a lot! They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers. Acts 1:14 If you then, though y...

I Believe Here Comes the Judge May 11, 2025 John Elmer, Founding Pastor For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, 2 Corinthians 5:10a Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgement. Hebrews 9:27 1. We lose hope if there isn’t a judgment day.

Hebrews 2:18 B. to give meaning to our suffering. Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. Colossians 1:24 He was crucified, died and was buried … A. to rescue us from ...

I Believe Christianity is Christ May 4, 2025 Chris Honess, Lead Pastor Christianity is more than a concept. 1. It’s a person. At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. Mark 1:9 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)

I Believe What it Means to Believe April 20, 2025 Chris Honess, Lead Pastor We live in an age of doubt. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.” John 20:25 Jesus meets us in our doubt. A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and...

Come, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him; after all, he is our brother, our own flesh and blood.” His brothers agreed. Genesis 37:26-27 2.

The Gospel According to Joseph “The Pits” March 23, 2025 Chris Honess, Lead Pastor No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Hebrews 12:11 God is orchestrating our character formation. Joseph’s master took him and put him in prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were confined. But while Joseph was there in the prison, the LORD was with him; Genesis 39:20-21 How God forms...
