Not all Christians are disciples. Do you only attend church on Christmas and Easter? Do you attend most Sundays, but are not involved at all? Are you serving using your gifts and in a connect group? Or are you all in, totally committed to following God, and this church is home? Twenty percent of the people do eighty percent of the work. Which one of these categories are you in right now?
We all know that feeling of being in love, and we all know the feeling of being on fire for God. Awe ignites the flame, devotion keeps the flame burning, and gathering makes the flame grow. Let's burn bright and shine our lights!
Happy 4-year anniversary to the Waikiki Beach Gathering! These first four years have been amazing and this is just the beginning! This is your church and Jesus' church, His purpose is our purpose, and He is the main thing!

Apostle Paul is a great example of how we share our story. We share our story anywhere we go by making connections, sharing how we encountered Jesus, and how we were back then compared to how we are now. We all have a story, don’t be afraid to share it. And be bold sharing Jesus without fear.
It starts with love, aligning our hearts, then moving through action. This is how missions becomes a lifestyle.
Jesus is our brand and He will heal our land. You are a brand ambassador for Jesus and God uses you to restore other people’s relationships with Him.
So many people who leave the church have never heard the simple gospel in the first place and so many people are scared to come to church because they think they will be judged. In order to reach people who have never been reached before we have to do things that have never been done before. We can do anything short of sin to reach people who do not know Jesus. Mercy triumphs over judgment. Let's use our freedom in Christ to set people free through Christ!
To love at all is to be vulnerable. When we share our weakness, we show God's love. This is the vision of the Waikiki Beach Gathering.

Temptation is an invitation from sin sent by the evil one. We ask our God to protect us and be our provision against temptations. A prayer life, reading God’s word daily, and having accountability fights temptation. Do not trade your walk with God for temporary satisfactions, needs, and pleasures.
Why do we pray for forgiveness? Forgiven people are called to forgive. Let’s walk in peace with God and let his love flow through us.

God wants to be intimate with you. Prayer is personal and simple. Let's stop speaking Christianese. God knows what you need.
What do you want that belongs to someone else? Sometimes we are so focused on wishing for what we don't have that we don't embrace the unlimited resources we already have. Contentment is only found in Jesus Christ.
Jesus died because of a false testimony. Liar liar plants for hire. Jesus is truth, the Word is truth, and the Spirit is truth. Who the Son sets free, is free indeed!
Looting is not loving, and you have not cuz you ask not. It is better to give than to receive. Let's say yes and you will be blessed!

Racism is alive and racism is evil. But our God is alive and our God is good! Let's do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.
