This week in our Heaven on Earth series, guest Pastor Bob Merritt shares practical and biblical wisdom from 47 years of marriage, counseling, and life experience.

What if your family could be a little glimpse of heaven on earth? This week Pastor John begins our Heaven on Earth series, exploring God’s design for marriage, parenting, and family. From Genesis to Corinthians, Scripture shows us that while sin and selfishness bring brokenness, God’s love and patience restore us and transform our homes. Family is the most difficult and most important place to live out your faith.  Marriage and parenting require dying to self and choosing to serve in love.  God’s Spirit gives us humility, patience, and forgiveness to build healthy relationships.  Family is the cocoon where God transforms us from old to new. Discover how inviting God into your family can change your relationships, strengthen your home, and bring His kingdom closer in your everyday life. #HeavenOnEarth   #FaithAndFamily   #MarriageAndParenting   #ConnectionPointeChristianChurch   #FamilyTransformation   NEXT STEPSH

Sometimes what you need most to overcome isn’t more strength, it’s God’s patience. This week, Pastor Ron continues our Victorious series with a powerful look at how God’s patience gives us hope, healing, and a fresh start. From Nehemiah to Romans to the Psalms, we see that while people fail, God’s mercy never does. God’s patience means He doesn’t discard us at our lowest.His mercies begin fresh every morning.His kindness leads us to repentance.And His Spirit teaches us to walk in patience with others. If you’ve felt stuck by weakness, weighed down by failure, or pressed by opposition, discover how God’s patience can reframe your relationship with Him, offer you another day, and transform the way you live. #GodsPatience   #OvercomingWithGrace   #ConnectionPointeChristianChurch   #VictoriousSeries   #FaithAndMercy   NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

Sometimes the greatest opponent we face is ourselves. Sometimes it’s sin, fear, or even death. But no matter how many times people fail, God’s promises never do. This Baptism Weekend, Pastor John continues our Victorious series with a powerful reminder from Nehemiah: when we turn back to God, He restores, redeems, and gives us victory through Jesus Christ. From Romans to 1 Corinthians, we’ll see how the gospel changes hearts, defeats sin, and offers lasting hope.  If you’ve wondered if God still wants you, this message is for you.  And baptism is our response, declaring that Jesus has made us new. Jesus is the only lasting solution to your struggle with sin, fear, and death—and He is ready to change your story.   #BaptismWeekend   #VictoryInJesus   #GodRestores   #ConnectionPointeChristianChurch   #ComeBackToGod     NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next st

What’s the burden you’ve been carrying? And what if Jesus invited you to trade it for something far better?

What happens after the breakthrough? In this week’s message, Pastor John walks through Nehemiah 7–10, revealing how God's people responded after the wall was rebuilt. Instead of falling into comfort or complacency, they chose repentance, worship, and commitment. This message calls us to reorganize our habits, resolve to obey, and stay dependent on God, not just in the crisis, but in the calm that follows. Whether you're in a season of rebuilding, blessing, or recovery, God invites you to align your life with His Word, His house, and His work. Victory isn’t just surviving the storm. It’s staying faithful after it. #Nehemiah #SpiritualVictory #ConnectionPointeChristianChurch #FaithAfterTheCrisis #DailyDependence NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

What do you do when your best efforts are mocked, blocked, or misunderstood? This week, Pastor John teaches from Nehemiah 6, showing how Nehemiah stayed focused on God’s purpose in the face of relentless distractions and critics. When you’re committed to a great project from God, whether it’s rebuilding a relationship, launching a ministry, or deepening your faith, you can expect opposition. But like Nehemiah, you’re not alone. Learn how to recite truth, pray for strength, and get back to work, even when fear, lies, or doubt try to pull you off track. With scriptural encouragement from James, Philippians, Jeremiah, and more, this message will empower you to keep building what God has called you to, no matter what comes against you. #Nehemiah#SpiritualFocus#ConnectionPointeChristianChurch#FaithOverFear#GodsPurpose NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

How does faith get passed from one generation to the next? In this week’s message, Pastor Ron highlights Eunice and Lois—two often-overlooked women whose sincere faith shaped the life of Timothy and helped advance the Gospel.
