What We Are About -- We are all about personally and relationally knowing God better as He has revealed Himself in all the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation and most ultimately and perfectly in the person of Jesus the Christ who has inaugurated the kingdom of God in His life, death, resurrection and the sending of His Spirit and who is Himself the fulfillment and epitome of all that God has promised. We rely on the necessary help of the Holy Spirit and seek to live in such a way that God would be glorified by our words and deeds as we seek to help others to know Him as He is.

 

What Inspired Our Name   

Here are some of the Scriptures behind our name. 

"Therefore thus says the Lord God, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, A costly cornerstone for the foundation, firmly placed. He who believes in it will not be disturbed." Isaiah 28:16

 

"And coming to Him as to a living stone which has been rejected by men, but is choice and precious in the sight of God, you also as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ." 1 Peter 2:4-5

 

"So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit." Ephesians 2:19-22

 

Our hope is that our congregation would be a harbor for many who would find here a place to be equipped and sent out, prepared and provisioned to accomplish God's purposes.

 

What we are up to right now?  In 2023 we have two main points of focus:

  1. Revelation on Resurrection -- We are rejoining a previous series we did not finish during COVID considering the important topic of Resurrection. Join us.
  2. Devotions 2024+ -- This year and beyond we are standing on the broad shoulders of scholars who have gone ahead of us to help us see the grand storyline of the Bible, The Story. When it comes to interpretation, my seminary professors drove into me that "context is king." The whole story of the Bible is the context of each passage in the Bible. Knowing this story gives us the necessary context to hold in our minds as we pursue the truth of each part of the Bible. These devotions have as their goal establishing a working knowledge of The Story, so that we can rightly understand all the Scripture and ultimately know, represent and glorify God. 

Join us and join in our interactive Sunday morning discussions seeking to build each other up in Christ. How? Email Johnny@stoneharborchurch.org and we'll make sure you are invited to our online gatherings.
