ThornCreek Church

It's Not All About Me :: It's Bigger Than Me

Beginning in October, ThornCreek Church will start a new Message Series titled, "It's (not) all about me." We will spend eight (8) weeks looking at what it means to be great in the eyes of God! It's a new attitude that's distinctly different from this world! God wants His love to be in you! THEN...We will climatically finish the series by partnering with Food For Hope and feed 5,000+ people! We will feed needy families in 15 public schools, 4 apartment complexes owned by the Colorado Coalition of the Homeless, and love on the homeless in Downtown Denver.

TC Kids (Birth - 5th Grade)

ThornCreek Kids Ministry strives to walk alongside and equip parents to be spiritual leaders in their children’s lives. Our hope and prayer is that with a strong faith foundation, kids will make the decision to continue growing as Christians, and become Christ-like disciples. Our age-level classes allow us to reach children at their developmental level, so that by God’s grace they will be able to comprehend to the best of their ability, the topics we are covering in church! All Ministry Partners (over the age of 18) have passed background checks, and all Bridge Team members (6th-12th graders) are supervised by adults.

TC Students (6th - 12th Grade)

ThornCreek Student Ministries mission is to create a safe place for students to encounter Jesus, ask questions, process struggles and to experience the love of God while ultimately integrating them into the body and mission of Jesus Christ. WEEKLY PROGRAMS ENCOUNTER | Wednesday 6:30pm-8:00pm This is our midweek Youth Group service. At Encounter, we have food, games, deep Bible study, student led worship and small groups. We believe that we are better when we are together. SOUL FUEL | Sunday 9:00am Service This is our Sunday Morning Bible Study. During the 9am service, students meet in the main worship center for worship, then all students walk over to the youth room for their class. We encourage all students in 6-12th grades to join us on Sunday mornings.

Ephesians 3:20

“Something is wrong when our lives make sense to unbelievers.”- Francis Chan, Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God

“God is looking for people through whom He could the impossible, what a pity we only attempt things we can do on our own.”- A.W. Tozer

Exodus 3:1-6

Doing great things for God starts with “Here I am”.

Exodus 4:10

Judges 6:12-16

God looks past your weakness and sees you in Him.

1 Chronicles 14:2

It’s not about you.

“Those who say yes to God’s call don’t walk the walk perfectly – not by a long shot. But because they say yes to God, they learn and grow even from their failures. And they become part of His actions to redeem the world.” John Ortberg

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”- Theodore Roosevelt

Matthew 14:28-29

You have to get out of the boat.

“There is always a call. God asks an ordinary person to engage in an act of extraordinary trust, that of getting out of the boat.”John Ortberg

“I have come to the place in my life that, if the assignment I sense God is giving me is something that I know I can handle, I know it is probably not from God. The kind of assignments God gives in the Bible are always God-sized. They are always beyond what people can do, because He wants to demonstrate His nature, His strength, His provision, and His kindness to His people and to a watching world. This is the only way the world will come to know Him.” Henry Blackaby
