The call of Jesus is a radical, wonderful thing. In it God brings to life those who were dead. These folks, living between the first coming of Jesus and his second coming, now move toward a cosmic vision – to live and die for the glory of God. God is moving us into a walk-by-faith mission that holds Jesus as our only hope, highest value and closest friend. If you’re in the Winona area we would love to have you walk with us.

CBC Strategy – Worship God, Care for each other, Reach out (1/31/2010) Once we know why we’re here and what we are to do, we should naturally ask how we should do what we are to do. The Bible has instruction for this too. With a transparent focus on worship (responding to God as we should), caring for each other, and reaching others with the gospel, disciples will be created and matured. (read more)
CBC Mission pt 2 – Our Call to Make Disciples (1/24/2010) Last week we talked about what a disciple is. This week we look at the call to make disciples. This includes everything from evangelism to maturity in Christ. Our call to make disciples connects well to the abortion issue (this being sanctity of life Sunday) in that ultimately the answer to the sin problem is not laws, it is Christ. (read more)
CBC Mission pt 1 – Make Disciples pt (1/17/2010) Underneath our vision – to bring glory to God – we are tasked to do something that brings glory to God – this is our mission. Our mission is to make disciples. We, as a local fellowship, are to be about making disciples. This week we’ll look at what a disciple is – how a disciple looks. It’s important that we know this so have a vision for the task. (read more)
CBC Vision (1/10/2010) It is very important to know where we are going as a local fellowship. God’s vision for Community Bible Church is much bigger than we might think. If we are to connect with God’s vision for us it will be because God works and not because we can do it with our natural abilities. God’s vision for his people is a breathtaking one. More of Jesus and less of ourselves. More faith and less sight. (read more)
Pray or Lose Heart (1/3/2010)
Scripture speaks much about prayer. And what a great way to start the new year – in prayer. Luke makes a very bold statement about prayer that should create prayer. If we don’t pray we will lose heart – we will not be faith-filled. Let’s together pray more in the coming year that we might see God work and thus give him great glory. (read more)
