Welcome to Seed Church
“Unless a seed falls to the ground and dies, it remains by itself… alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest. Anyone who loves his life, loses it. But anyone who despises his life in this world, will keep it all the way until eternity.”
2000 years ago, Jesus said these words. Then, he embodied them. He was God, yet He lived his short life, not to propel himself to greatness, but to serve others. He gave his life to save ours.
The secret of true living is found in a paradox. If you choose to hold on to the control of your life, to find purpose in yourself and your own interests, your choice guarantees you will lose your life when you die. If you choose to give up control of your life now to God, to find purpose in God and in His interests, your choice guarantees you will keep your life after death.
Seed Church invites you to lose control.
Jesus: The True Emperor
A Series through the book of Colossians
The Colossian church lived in a tension of competing cultural and religious voices that created confusion in how they were to think and live. The letter to the Colossians presents the basic principles and teachings of Christianity, while at the same time presenting a counter philosophy to opposing world views. Although there were many cultural influences on the church through local folk culture and synchretized religion, the philosophy of Rome was the greatest backdrop to the letter’s apologetic.
Christianity is an alternative kingdom to Roman Imperialism, economic control and all other secular systems of power and manipulation. Christ, not Caesar, is the true Emperor. Christians are to submit to the family of Christ, not to the paternia familia of Rome with its class system and abuses. The Christian gets its orders from above, not from Rome or any other earthly kingdom.
Advent Conspiracy
Celebrate Advent Conspiracy with Seed Community Church this Christmas Season, as we partner with Friends of Kuloshe to raise $20,000 to buy land for an orphanage in Tanzania.
What is Advent Conspiracy? It is idea that began in 2006 with five pastors who decided to make Christmas a revolutionary event by encouraging their faith communities to Worship Fully, Spend Less, Give More and Love All.
The idea has grown into a world-wide movement which our church joined in 2010 by raising $15,000 to drill a well in Tanzania. This year we hope to raise even more money to do meaningful work in Jesus’ name by spending less and giving more this Christmas to help those in need.
