Welcome
Thank you for visiting the site of Living Message Church. We are a Non-denominational, Bible Based, Family Focused and Community Centered Body of Believers. Feel free to browse our sight, listen to some of our messages and read our vision that explains the focus, faith and culture of our church.
Living Message Church is about People and not Politics. To often Church politics make people feel left out, unwanted and unconnected. We embrace the Importance of Family, the Relevance of God's Word and the Fact that God has a Purpose for every life. Living Message Church is unified, yet diverse. Utilizing the different cultural backgrounds, diverse talents and vast expressions to assimilate and deliver the word of the living God. We are not a White Church, we are not a Black Church; we are a multi-cultural church who embraces the diversity of God's people. We hope to see you at Living Message and if our church home is not for you, we will gladly assist you with finding one that suites you and your family.
A Church Without Membership?
We have no membership at Living Message Church, we have Family. Why? When I moved to Florida from New York all of my memberships came to an end. The memberships at my gym, shopping centers and any social clubs were ended because I changed locations. In today’s world the Church has become so caught up in membership, that if someone changes location (leaves to go to another Church) they are no longer members. Relationships end because their membership is over. Even though I moved away from home, regardless of where I went, my family never changed even though my memberships did.
When you join a Church and you leave to attend somewhere else, you are normally released as a member so the communication and relationship has ended. It ended because you were not viewed as family; you were viewed as a member. The four walls of the Church created membership, the will and power of God created Family. Come Out and Meet the Family!
Community Focus
As the Church, we feel that our primary responsibility is to reach and assist the very thing Christ died, rose and will return again for, “People”. Living Message Church is active in the community assuring that we lend a hand to people in need. Through our Find, Feed and Restore ministry, we actively find and meet the immediate need of individuals while working to restore them physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially to the abundant life that Christ has in store for them.
In the Bible, a stone was used as a testament of an action or event. A group of stones would be a reminder of something that happened, a miracle or work of God (Joshua Chapter 4). The Bible says we are Living Stones (1 Peter 2:5). If we are living stones, then we are living testaments, or living stories of God's work, or a Living Message. Our greatest sermon and most powerful dissertation will not be done from a pulpit, but from one life impacting another. Preaching about helping is a spoken message, putting the message into action is a Living Message.
