SUNDAYS AT 9:00 & 10:30 AM“UNTIL CHRIST IS FORMED IN YOU!”

GALATIANS 4:19

Jesus never called people to become church members, converts, or even Christians. He called them to be changed into his likeness. Though that transformation into Christlikeness begins at salvation, it is brought into increasing fullness in the simple but intentional journey of discipleship. That’s what Jesus is calling his followers to: a journey of simple but intentional discipleship. He wants us to grow! He invites us to become practitioners of his life, full apprentices in His ministry, fully devoted to His Word and so thoroughly saturated in His Presence that we act, think and live as Jesus would if He were living in our place. For those who make that journey, He promises the incomparable delight of being transformed into His likeness—and, of being used as His agents of transformation in this world. That is The Journey for Portland Christian Center in 2019. And you’re invited.

TODAY'S GUEST SPEAKER ALLEN J. HUTHAllen J. Huth has a deep passion and commitment to the Bible. Allen is the Founder and President of the Ezra Project. The Ezra Project’s mission is to re-connect God’s people to God’s Word, encouraging believers to daily engage with the Bible.

GARY SIMONS GUEST SPEAKER ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 6Gary Simons serves as the Executive Director of an international ministry of church revitalization based in Taiwan which includes teaching and training pastors, leaders, and ministry teams. Gary has been serving as a international instructor and trainer for Walk Thru the Bible Ministries for over 20 years.

He and his wife Belle, son Aiden, and daughter Jasmine reside in Taiwan where in addition to the international countries, they are serving to revitalize the Chinese church in the Far East.
