ThornCreek Church
Better Days :: Starting Over with a New Attitude
Have you ever felt like you took a wrong turn, and you're far off from God's original plan for your life? Have you wondered if God hears your prayers? This is a great message series for you! During this series, we will be looking at a time when the Israelites were evicted from their Promise Land and living far away from God's original plan. You will be encouraged that we have a God who never gives up, and is able to make all things new. Invite someone!

TC Kids
ThornCreek Children’s Ministry strives to partner with families to raise children in the way of Jesus. It’s our goal for children to be transformed by the love of God, to grow in their walk with God, surrender their lives to God, and be a light in the world for others to know God in the same way.
Our curriculum takes the kids through the Bible in a year and they are invited into The Big God Story to experience it and discover who God is and how they fit into His plan!
We believe that parents have a huge impact on the faith of their children! Every Monday parents are emailed a Family Bible Study that you can do throughout the week with your kids. We also have a repeating 6-week Spiritual Parenting small group that you can be a part of to learn more about raising your children to know God!
We have classes available each weekend for Infants through 6th grade.All volunteers have passed background checks and we have security procedures in place to create a safe environment for your kids.

Worship Service Info
Did you come with kids? | The teaching time in our Worship Center is designed for adults (Middle School and older). Children, 6th grade and younger, will be much more comfortable in our TC Kids Ministry which is designed just for them! There, your child will engage in age-appropriate teaching, games, music and more. You can check your child in for a TC Kids Ministry classroom at the check-in table located in the Lobby. If needed, the Lobby becomes our Cry Room for parents with infants during service. If you have further questions, please stop by the TC Kids Ministry check-in table in the Lobby today.
Volume | If you find the music too loud, please visit the Welcome Table for ear plugs. Ear plugs are also available at the Worship Center doors.
Prayer Requests | Prayer requests can be submitted via https://thorncreek.church/prayer-request. The TC Prayer Team would love to pray for your requests during the week. There are also TC Prayer Team members available to pray with you after service at the front of the Worship Center.
Distractions | To allow you and those around you to be more fully engaged in today’s service, please refrain from leaving the Worship Center during service. Also, please turn off or mute all cell phones and other mobile devices. Please use the Lobby area for any necessary conversations.

Your truest home has nothing to do with your location or circumstances. Your truest home has everything to do with the presence of Jesus Christ making His home in your heart.
“Adversity is not simply a tool. It is God’s most effective tool for the advancement of our spiritual lives. The circumstances and events that we see as setbacks are oftentimes the very things that launch us into periods of intense spiritual growth.”

- Dwight L. Moody

2. Let God’s word sink into your heart.
“We come to the kingdom of God through exile, through allowing our kingdom to be torn down. We become able to live as servants in the Jesus Way as we understand that our own kingdoms are now torn down. Then Jesus comes to help us enter into another kingdom: his Kingdom of the Heavens.”
- Dallas Willard

3. Pray daily for God to do a miracle.
“Nothing paralyzes our lives like the attitude that things can never change. We need to remind ourselves that God can change things. Outlook determines outcome.”
