Risen Church

A Gospel-centered church in Cypress, TX.
Making Disciples. Because He Lives.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

When we behold the work of Christ in the gospel, we are freed from both minimizing our sin and allowing our sin to crush us. We can see our sin for what it is and know that no matter how great, God’s mercy is greater still.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

We must become fluent in the language of the gospel, constantly proclaiming the truth to our hearts in all circumstances.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

Because Christ is our shepherd, we lack nothing. His provision for his sheep, both in what he gives and in what he withholds, is loving and perfect.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

The favor of God on us in Christ is a shield against all of life’s evil. When the Creator Himself delights in you, everything else fades in comparison.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

We want to plant churches because Jesus is the risen Lord of all creation and he is worthy to be worshiped by all!

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

The more your mind and heart are set on the next life, the more you will be able to press on in this one.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

Jesus is a master counselor. He knows exactly what each person needs.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

In a world full of cynicism, the people of God are meant to be known for their rejoicing and reasonableness.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

“How am I being discipled?” is an important question, but we mustn’t forget to also ask ourselves, “How am I making disciples?”

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

In a distraction-filled world, it is all too easy to find ways to avoid our sorrow rather than to let it shape and form us like God intends.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

Just as treasuring Jesus above all else will bring order to our lives, treasuring anything else more than him will bring chaos.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

As our love for God empowers our love for our neighbors, our love of neighbor will in turn shape our love for God.

[Risen Church @risenchurchtx]

Your identity and ultimate reality are not defined by the earthly kingdom that you are a citizen of temporarily; they are defined by the heavenly kingdom that you are a citizen of eternally.

On June 19, 1865, Gen. Gordon Granger announced Order No. 3 to the state of Texas. This marked the end of institutionalized slavery in the United States, and the ideals of freedom and justice that our country was founded on were now officially recognized for all its citizens.

Jesus says that if we embody the life and character of the Beatitudes, we will inevitably face opposition from the world. But he promises that the future joy of the Kingdom makes it all worth it.

Why do we resist peacemaking? Because we are focused on ourselves. The gospel not only shows us what true peacemaking looks like but also sets us free to do it.

Listen to this week's teaching on peacemaking in the Risen app or on our sermon podcast.
