FREEDOM SESSION

  The end of September might sound like a long way off, but it will be here before you know it! And with it, will be Freedom Session -  a 20 week, intensive healing-discipleship journey that uncovers the roots of pain in our lives and invites Jesus Christ to heal those areas of our hearts. Freedom Session deals with real issues…pornography, broken marriages, sexual woundedness and abuse, depression, anger, fear and addiction. Beneath these symptoms, you will find a wounded and empty heart, looking for hope and meaning. As Jesus begins to heal the heart, the unhealthy and destructive ways we used to escape the pain in our lives become less and less attractive. Shame loses its grip on our lives and the lies that controlled us are replaced by God’s truth. More details (i.e. [...]

CONFESSING SIN TO YOUR SPOUSE

Confession is scary. For both parties. No one wants to confess their sin, but when done well, it leads to deeper trust and love. In the first Parkside Roundtable, Clint sits down with Tom & Sharlene Brooks to start a conversation on what confession in marriage looks like. Tom is a counselor. Sharlene is a cop. They’ve been through the ups and downs of marriage and have learned a few things along the way that will be a help to every listener. We’re praying that the fruit of this recording would be healthier marriages and homes. Would you join us in praying for those that listen and for our own hearts, that we would have the courage to live in the light and experience the beauty of living life in light of the cross.

HERE HE COMES!

Date: February 5, 2017 Text: Rev. 19:11-21 Speaker: Isaac Dagneau We were snowed in on this Sunday, but Isaac was able to Facebook Live the sermon. Here is the audio recording. Revelation 19:11-21 speaks of the moment we generally call “The Second Coming.” John (the writer of Revelation) sees “heaven opened” and the mighty Lamb riding a white horse down to earth to judge the nations and unite with His bride. For Christians today, this text provides hope for a bright future, and encouragement in knowing that every wrong will be made right.

PACK THE BOX PACKED THE HOUSE

A bunch of generous people came out to yesterday's "Pack the Box!" event. Kids and adults organized, sorted and packed 67 shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. Thank you for your generosity, Parkside! The boxes were packed with quality gifts and donated postage received from across our whole church family. There are still more boxes to come in from individuals in our church who are packing one or more boxes on their own. The boxes will make their way to children in parts of our world that don't have access to the many things we take for granted. They are a symbol of our love and prayers for them. They are an illustration of the free gift of salvation through the present of Jesus. Please join with us in prayer that many children, families and generations might feel loved by God [...]

RACE PROVED TO BE AMAZING

Parkside's first ever Race for Amazing Charities contained so much good! 12 teams of 2-4 members entered the competition which took them all over town. From jelly belly tasting quizzes to kayaking across Hayward every contestant had a blast. Some threw up when it came time to drink 1L of Perrier. Some found new levels of frustration shooting marshmallow guns. Others simply got lost. The good news was that every team made it back to a delicious taco bar and we raised over $2,000 for the New Beginnings Women's Association (a ministry in Mexico that helps single moms get back on their feet). A bunch of hard working volunteers helped behind the scenes with set-up, hosting stations, and other details. A huge thank you to Maureen, Jessica, and Lynda for planning and organizing this event. Everyone had smiles and is [...]

ECONOMIC VALUE OF A CHURCH

"A study has just been published showing that ten congregations in Toronto contributed a total of $45 million of economic value to the city based on a combined budget of only $10 million. In simple terms, the dollar value of having a church in a community is about 4.5 times its annual budget. The difference is called the “halo effect”, which is due to the church’s contributions to social capital and infrastructure, its programs for individual impact and community development, and other activities which add value."* Read the rest of the article here: https://www.cccc.org/news_blogs/noteworthy/2016/07/15/economic-value-of-a-church/   *An excerpt from "Economic Value of a Church" by Philip Milley.
