Connecting

The final command of Jesus to those who desire to follow him was to go. To the ends of the earth. To be his witnesses. Simple, right?

Sometimes the simplest things can be the hardest things to do.

As Christ’s witnesses, empowered by the Spirit, we are to follow the example of our Lord and go. He hasn’t asked for our good intentions. He has asked for our whole lives, surrendered to him and his purposes, and to go and be his people for his sake in the world.

Our work is a continuation of his work. To go and to share all possible truth with all possible people in all possible ways. Connecting the whole gospel to the whole world with our whole strength.

“And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere.” (Acts 1:8)

(re)building

What would happen if the people of God were fully committed to the work of God in the world? What would happen if when we prayed, “Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done,” we meant it with sincerity of heart? What if we laid aside our own dreams, desires, and ambitions and allowed God to replace them with his own?

To answer these questions, we will be looking to the book of Nehemiah. We will catch a glimpse of what it looks like when God’s vision and burden becomes our own, what it looks like when people come together for a cause bigger than themselves, and what will happen when church culture is exchanged for Kingdom culture.

When God is at work, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished. (re)building will be examining the limitless potential for God’s kingdom when the power of His word is coupled with the enthusiasm of committed individuals.

EMC Welcomes Jeff Wortman and Family

Jeff Wortman and family have recently joined the fellowship and ministry team of Elizabeth City Evangelical Methodist Church. After 10 years of ministry at Potomac Baptist Church in Sterling, VA, Jeff, his wife, Chelsea, and their three young boys took a leap of faith and followed the Lord’s leading to uproot their family to come be a part of EMC. Jeff’s first day on staff as the Minister of Music & Worship was Tuesday, August 15 and we are excited to see all the Lord is going to produce for his Kingdom through Jeff’s ministry.

To learn more about Jeff, please visit his bio page from the Ministry Team section of this website. Click here to send Jeff an email welcoming him to EMC!
