Defending Jesus

ever felt stupid when questioned about your faith?

ever wondered how dependable the bible really is?

maybe Jesus was just a crazy man who thought He was God?

what if a bunch of people just got together & made up christianity?

is Hell a real place?

Gender 101

Hey Parents!

We’ve begun an exciting new series this month called Gender 101. Our goal is to lay out the basics of our gender differences and discover our identities and who God alone says we are as young men and women. During January, we’ll be shuffling around our male and female staff members so each Unplugged Small Group has a mix of both. Within these groups we’ll be discussing important questions and issues regarding  the opposite sex and how we approach them as real men and women of God.

I’d like to encourage you as parents to engage with your teen(s) often this month about what they’re hearing and learning in FlipSide so you can be on the same page about this crucial topic. If you have any questions about what we discuss in our groups this month, feel free to contact me (Pastor Matthew) at 910-602-5300 ext. 105 or shoot me an email at matthew@rockwilmington.com. I welcome your prayers as well as your feedback on this topic as you certainly play the MOST important role in your teens life

FS in the Holidays

He’s IN you.

When we pray to God and read about God, we tend to see Him as a far off being who journeys through the galaxies to our rescue. It’s this same perspective that keeps us from realizing the power we can have in our lives as Believers. As long as we see God from a distance we’ll never experience the power of God IN us! Join us at FlipSide LIVE this Wednesday, December 1 from 7-9pm as we kick off the Christmas season right! We’ll be giving away some stockings full of early Christmas gifts, Hot Chocolate, and Lots of festive music! Don’t forget to bring your friends, see ya there!!

Warship

We’re starting a new series in FlipSide LIVE on November 3rd called ‘Warship.’ One of the greatest weapons a follower of Christ has is their ability to worship anywhere anytime. This ability is not unlike Guerilla Warfare, where the enemy can be taken off guard at any point in time. Join us Wednesday, November 3rd, 7-9p, as we tap into the often unused power of true worship and discover how it can quickly change the way we live.

 

FlipSide OUTSIDE!

We’ve been cookin’ up something new for FlipSide this year and it’s just about ready to come out of the oven! It’s called FlipSide OUTSIDE and it’s about taking the truth of the Gospel outside of the walls of the church.

FlipSide will be meeting at a new location on the last Wednesday of each month beginning in September 2010. Our mission is to serve our community in creative ways that simply demonstrate the love of Jesus. Each months location will be announced at the beginning of the month via Facebook, Twitter, FS LIVE, the Parent Blog & FlipSide.net. Each teen will be asked to bring a minimum of $5 to contribute to whatever that months project may be.

We can’t wait to see what God does in Wilmington & our teens as we become even more active in our faith! If you have creative serving ideas or would like to join us, contact me at: matthew@rockwilmington.com
