A Church After God’s Own Heart

Going all in on Jesus

A Church After God’s Own Heart: Hope’s 2024 Sermon Series Theme

Ten sermon series over 12 months that challenge each one of us individually as Christians, and collectively as a church, to consider how we might draw closer to God and discover the purpose of life this side of heaven. This year, join us as we focus in on the four “G’s” – GatherGrowGroup and Give – and live out God’s calling for us both individually and as a church family!

A Church After God's Own Heart 2024 Theme

GATHER

“For the Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’” – Matthew 4:10

It’s God’s heart for us to worship!
Don’t miss the amazing opportunity for weekly worship together with a church community! Join us for worship each Sunday morning at 9:30 am at the Robert A. Lee Community Recreation Center.

GROW

You must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever!” 2 Peter 3:18-19

It’s God’s heart for us to grow in faith!
As disciples of Jesus, we are called to move from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity. And, we have many ways for you to do that at Hope Iowa City! Learn more about the available classes and programs we offer by visiting our calendar!

GROUP

“All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer.” Acts 2:42

It’s God’s heart for us to do life together!
We aren’t wired up to do life alone. Spiritual growth best happens in small groups, which is why we encourage everyone to find their community and get in a group! Learn more about opportunities for groups in Iowa City here.

GIVE

“You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. ‘For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.’” 2 Corinthians 9:7

It’s God’s heart for us to give of our time and treasures!
We encourage you to pray about where God might be calling you to give – whether by volunteering at Hope Iowa City, going on a mission trip, or by giving financially to support Hope’s mission!
