Finding Your Place: Using God’s Gifts in the Church by Abidan Shah, PhD
Church is about much more than just coming and sitting in a pew, listening to the message, and then going home. Church is a place to belong; a family to which we are connected. The gifts and abilities that God gives us are meant to be used to serve the body of Christ. There are lots of ways to do that, but not using those gifts makes it difficult to connect and grow in your faith. This weekend, take a step in finding your place here at Clearview!

Double Honor (Article) by Abidan Paul Shah

Partners by Pastor Abidan Shah

Called to the Harvest by Pastor Abidan Shah

As our church continues to grow, we will also have to deal with opposition. The key is to prayerfully organize ourselves and continue the work God has called us to do.
No Benchwarmers by Pastor Abidan Shah
Christianity is more than just a come and sit religion. It is a call to do go and serve. We are saved to serve. Many Christians feel as if something is missing in their Christian walk. They search high and low for some secret formula to joy and fulfillment but to no avail. True joy and fulfillment can only be found in allowing the Holy Spirit to find a place for us to serve in God’s Kingdom.
