EXPERIENCING THE FUTURE OF THE KINGDOM IN THE REALITIES OF TODAY.
“If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.” C.S. Lewis
Here at Vineyard Church of Cedar Rapids, we believe that the ultimate journey in this life is to passionately pursue God and His in-breaking Kingdom. Unfortunately, in most of what we call church life, our journey toward God can so easily be reduced to dutifully following religious rules and regulations. Yet in the amazing life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth, we discover the possibility of a life that is filled with Holy-Spirit breathed expectancy, joy and wonder, even when mingled with sorrow and suffering.
We believe it is in this day-to-day experiential journey with God, where we can discover both an increase of joy and wonder, and an ever-increasing awareness of who we truly are. It’s in the midst of this hunger and thirst for closer relationship with God, where we find ourselves asking one another..."Have you experienced God today?"
