Are you a member at Ingleside yet? If not, I hope you will make plans now to be in our adult membership class on Sunday, February 6, at 4:00 p.m. (the class for children and students is at 12:15 p.m.). Here are five good reasons to take this important step.
First, membership—both the word and the concept—is biblical. 1 Corinthians 12:27 says: “Now you are the body of Christ, and individually members of it” (ESV). God expects those who follow Christ to be members of his...

I’m looking forward to seeing you this Sunday, January 9, as we resume our normal Sunday schedule of worship, Bible study classes, and Next-Gen programming.
Scripture makes clear that we need to be together for in-person, face-to-face fellowship and encouragement in the body of Christ (cf. Hebrews 10:24-25).
So, as the New Year begins, renew your commitment to every-week worship and small group participation!

Scripture is clear: God is honored, and we benefit when we gather with other believers to worship (cf. Hebrews 10:24-25).

Church membership is biblical. As the Apostle Paul wrote to the church at Corinth: “Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it” (1 Corinthians 12:27, ESV; cf. Romans 12:4-5).
Membership is a way of saying: “I’m committed to Jesus and to his body, the church. You can count on me to use my gifts for the good of others in this church family. I will worship, grow, serve, give, and go with the gospel alongside others in this church family. I’m...

Jesus gave us our marching orders. He said, “Go and make disciples” (Matthew 28:19, ESV).
That’s why at our church we often say, “Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the glory of God.”
It means that we have a “growth bias” when it comes to disciple- making. We want to make disciples -- as many as we can and as mature as we can.
By God’s grace, the disciples we are committed to making . . .
