Sermon_nextstepNext Step

Most people, when asked, would agree that they long to be a part of something bigger than themselves. It's the reason we join organizations and teams. We love to feel the sense of ownership and community with others around us. And we want our lives to have true purpose and direction.

In the message Next Step, Ed Young shares the vision for Fellowship Church. He walks though the tenants that Fellowship holds true. And he reminds us all that when we join God's vision, life will never be the same. Because when we become part of the local church, purpose and direction are just the beginning.

Mike Johnson, FC Kids Pastor, recently did a great post called "Volunteering - Do it for (Your) Kids" that is definitely worth checking out.

Senior Pastor Ed Young, Executive Pastor Preston Mitchell and Children's Pastor Mike Johnson also take a look at why having a strong Children's Ministry is a necessity in the Leadership Uncensored talk, Children's Ministry - Who Needs It?
