Who We Are

St. Joe Church of Christ is here to CONNECT people with God and each other, to provide an atmosphere where we can GROW our faith in God, and to SERVE one another in the name of Christ.

What We Believe

1. St. Joe Church of Christ is a congregation that recognizes the Bible as God’s inspired and authoritative word (2 Timothy 3:16).

2. We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s only son and that He is literally God in the flesh; becoming a man after already existing as God in Heaven (John 1:1,14; Philippians 2:6-11; Colossians 1:17).

3. We believe that Jesus died on the cross, on purpose, so that He might be the perfect sacrifice for our sins (Romans 5:1-8).

4. We believe that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after He was crucified. His resurrection demonstrated His power over death and validated His words and ministry (1 Corinthians 15:3-7).

5. We believe that Jesus will return some day to take us to be with Him in Heaven, and that He will reign with absolute power and authority (Matthew 24:36-44, 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17).

6. We believe that a person needs to accept Jesus Christ to be saved from sin and to go to Heaven (John 3:16; 14:6).

7. We believe the way to be saved is found in the Bible. It says that a person must hear and believe that Jesus is God’s Son (Romans 10:14); they must understand that they have fallen short of God’s Glory by sinning against God (Romans 3:23); they must realize that they cannot make it to heaven on their own merits: it is by God’s grace that we are given the opportunity to be saved (Ephesians 2:8,9; Romans 6:23); they must confess their belief in Christ and be willing to place their trust in Him (Romans 10:11); they must be baptized (immersion) into Christ for the forgiveness of their sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38; Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:3-7).

8. We believe the Holy Spirit indwells true believers and acts as a Counselor, Comforter, Teacher, Developer of spiritual fruits and Giver of spiritual gifts (John 14:25,26; Galatians 5:22,23; I Corinthians 12:4-6; Ephesians 4:11-13).

9. We believe the church is God’s people (Matthew 16:18), consisting of those who are saved in Christ. The church is to give glory to God in worship (Ephesians 5:19,20); to evangelize (Matthew 28:19); and to teach the believers how to bring glory and honor to Jesus in their lifestyles (Ephesians 4:5), recognizing Him as Head of the church (Ephesians 5:23).

We know that is a lot to take in, so just

Come & See!

The Church on the Move

By: Donny Goff

Series: Past Sermons

In this series we will be looking at The Church. From the “Infant” Church, established in Acts 2. Many churches carrying the name of Christ, can sink into the mindset of thinking that church is all about us; that our life together as a congregation is all about getting my needs met, my spiritual itch scratched. I think it must be heartbreaking to our Savior. The Church was giving a Destination. Jesus directed all believers to GO. “And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” But how? Join us as we find out. #stjoecofc #ComeAndSee #Destination2021 #TheChurch Check out our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/StJoeChurchofChrist

Acts: Peter’s Sermon

By: Donny Goff
Series: Past Sermons
Two weeks ago, we looked at the beginning of Acts 2, where we had seen God do an amazing, jaw-dropping event! The people had just seen Jesus, perfect and magnificent, ascend to Heaven to be seated at the right hand of God. Followed by tongues of fire and the gift of the Holy Spirit! How do you follow that up? What happened next? Peter stands up and reminds them of who it was that crucified Him. How did the crowd respond? Join us as we find out! #stjoecofc #ComeAndSee #Destination2021 #TheBookofActs

Acts: Pentecost & Tongues

By: Donny Goff
Series: Past Sermons
Pentecost. A big “Churchie” word. We know it was a day, but did you know it was a day of festival? A day of celebration for the Jews? To find the answers we must dig into God’s word and see what happened on the this day that scripture was fulfilled? #stjoecofc #ComeAndSee #Destination2021 #TheBookofActs

Acts: Matthias

This section of Acts is generally looked over, summarized or all together just skipped. People will reference it, but I have not really heard much on the scriptures we are going to look at today. Last week we started our study through the book of Acts. Jesus gives His followers some final instructions. To go and wait in Jerusalem until they receive the Holy Spirit. So what happened when the disciples returned to Jerusalem?

Chaos To Christmas: Mary & Joseph

By: Donny Goff
Series: Past Sermons
Christmas is supposed to be celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. This same baby will later die on a cross, and then be resurrected by God the Father in a miraculous way, fulfilling prophecy and providing the way of salvation. Not one of many ways, but the ONLY way of salvation. It is given to all of us, but you have to accept the terms of His way of salvation. Giving each of us a choice if Jesus Christ becomes our savior. He is savior of the world, but does He become your savior? Join us as we journey from Chaos to Christmas. #stjoecofc #ComeAndSee #BeIntentionalin2020 #ChaostoChristmas #MaryandJoseph Check out our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/StJoeChurchofChrist

GIVE

Our God is a God of abundance and He loves to give. He sacrificed willingly on the cross and then invited us into fullness of life. As His children, we are called to imitate Him. Our generosity in giving is a demonstration of God’s character and a response to what He has done for us.
