SERIES: WHY? - Behind What We Do At Epic

MESSAGE: WHY KIDS RUN FREE
TEXT: Matthew 19:13-15; Matthew 18:1-5
SYNOPSIS: In this series, we examine 10 common elements of our life as Epic and explain the thinking and theology behind them. Some of these practices are uncommon in other churches and can even be a mystery to our own congregation. Not only do we want to shed some light on why we do what we do, but invite the appreciation and embracing of who we are. This week we ask the question, "Why do we let kids run free during our worship gatherings?" The answer lies in the way Jesus honored and valued children, and equated welcoming them to welcoming him.

SERIES: WHY? - Behind What We Do At Epic
MESSAGE: WHY WE'RE NOT "HOLY" HOLY.
TEXT: Mark 7:17-20
SYNOPSIS: In this series, we examine 10 common elements of our life as Epic and explain the thinking and theology behind them. Some of these practices are uncommon in other churches and can even be a mystery to our own congregation. Not only do we want to shed some light on why we do what we do, but invite the appreciation and embracing of who we are. This week we are going to talk about holiness: what it is, and why our pursuit does not look like some of the traditional ways the evangelical world has pursued it.

SERIES: WHY? - Behind What We Do At Epic

MESSAGE: WHY WE HAVE BASKETS
TEXT: Matthew 25:14-30
SYNOPSIS: In this series, we examine 10 common elements of our life as Epic and explain the thinking and theology behind them. Some of these practices are uncommon in other churches and can even be a mystery to our own congregation. Not only do we want to shed some light on why we do what we do, but invite the appreciation and embracing of who we are. This week we look at the reason we pass baskets for offering. Christians often underestimate the connection between money and spirituality, between life with God and the way money has the power to shape us toward competing ends. What do our baskets represent at Epic? What do they say about our community and what we believe?
