Vision Sunday 2026
What does it truly mean to be part of a church family? This powerful message takes us on a journey from Psalm 108's call to steadfast praise into the heart of Acts 2, where we discover that the church was never designed to be a crowd we attend, but a family we belong to. We're challenged to move beyond transactional Sunday attendance into relational daily life together. The early church modeled something revolutionary: they devoted themselves to teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer—not just in temple courts, but in their homes, sharing meals with glad and sincere hearts. This wasn't religious obligation; it was life intertwined. As we explore the transition from 'Lakeside Church of God' to 'Lakeside Family Church,' we're reminded that nobody should have to do life alone. The introduction of LFC Groups—whether centered on Bible study, golf outings, crafts, or playdates—invites us into circles of authentic relationship where worship happens in rows but life happens in circles. When we intentionally build these connections, praying over one another, sharing struggles and victories, and bringing our unchurched friends into genuine community, the Lord adds to our number daily those who are being saved. This is the Acts 2 model alive today: doing everything in the name of Jesus, turning ordinary activities into sacred opportunities for discipleship and evangelism.
