Orange Brought Me Inspiration
Someone told me a while back that ministry is one of the loneliest careers. At the time, I am sure I had no idea what that person was talking about. I mean, I was surrounded with peers in Bible college who were studying and doing ministry, and it was some of the best times in my life. … Continue reading Orange Brought Me Inspiration
Thanks Orange for Connecting Our Church’s Ministries
Last year, as you probably know, was our church's first time heading to the Orange Conference. One thing that I want to thank Orange for is connecting our church's ministries.

Thinking Back on Orange 2010 – College Ministry Breakout
Chuck Bomar led a breakout workshop last year based on ministry to college-age people.

Are You Sharing Your Story?
This past Sunday, we taught about discovering who you are in Youth Group. As we discover who God made us, we begin to discover God, and we begin to step in rhythm to this overarching story. We read about the story of the "women at the well" from John 4. The women did not want … Continue reading Are You Sharing Your Story?
Excited About RCC’s First Elders
On January 16, 2011, Rockingham Christian Church made a big step forward in commissioning our first elders! This completes the process from us being a new church that depended on others to a church who completely supports itself internally. That's so cool. God seems to be moving and working in our growing church. Why does … Continue reading Excited About RCC’s First Elders
