The Place Where Harlem and Washington Heights Come Together! Sunday service on Zoom.
The Place Where Harlem and Washington Heights Come Together! Sunday service on Zoom.
As we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King's birthday, many continue to pigeonhole and misquote him, especially concerning his famous "I Have A Dream" speech. Dr. King spoke of much more than "content of character" during that speech.
How many have read or listened to Dr. King's "Paul's Letter To American Christians?" We invite you to listen to it. You will see why those who misquote Dr. King will not use this sermon to support their actions, which go directly against the teachings of Jesus.
Today (June 4, 2023), our Rev. Chapman was the guest preacher at Grace Congregational Church of Harlem! He, as always, delivered a powerful lesson on grace and truth through Jesus. The title of today's service was "Fill Er' Up!" As grace and truth through Jesus are in abundance, then yes, fill er' and every one of us up!
See John 1:1-17 and Exodus 34: 1-6.

Consider this - Let us view our faith like a ship in the water.
Without an anchor, a ship will slowly drift away from its current position and toward possible danger, such as striking land and sinking to the bottom of a body of water.
We need an anchor to maintain our position in faith. What is that anchor? Glad you asked!
Listening to Jesus and his Word is our anchor. To maintain the strength of our anchors, we must do a few things. Examples are going to Bible study, fellowship with others, reading the Bible, and trying to live as Jesus desires us to.
Be careful, for some people deliver a word full of false teachings and not from Jesus. God has numerous ways to speak to us; however, avoid anyone claiming to have a direct line to Jesus or that Jesus sanctions people's illegal actions or political movements.
When you see pictures of pastors laying "healing hands" upon people like Mayor Adams and Donald Trump, you view glaring portraits of folks who have drifted away from Jesus and are not anchored in the Word. No matter how some attempt to twist the Word of God, the Lord does not support immorality and criminal activity.
God is at work exposing the cruelty, lies, crimes, and absurdity of movements like MAGA. Do not despair, for these things must occur.
We must remain anchored in the harbor provided by God's Word and know one thing—no matter the stormy seas churning around us, God is in control!
Please join us for our next service on Sunday, October 13, 2024, at 11 AM. For the link, please email us at info@northchurchnyc.org.

“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.

What is wrong with Mayor Adams? Why is he willing to take away one of our most precious resources, our libraries? We can go on and on about how these spaces benefit all of our population, but the six-day library service is about to disappear thanks to the latest proposed budget. Again, we ask Mayor Adams to do better! Please read about it here.
What is the new thing that God seeks to do with AND through you in 2024?
