Apple, Windows PC, and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Computers, smart phones, and tablet devices have changed the world forever. They offer conveniences many wonder how we ever lived without. But with those conveniences come plenty of headaches as well. I am a Mac (Apple) guy. But I haven’t always been. I used Windows-based PC’s for a long time. There was, at least at […]
Centennial Celebration!
Anacortes Christian Church is reaching near and far and inviting former members and ministers to come and share in a special time of celebrating 100 years of service to Anacortes and beyond. Many lives have been impacted by the contributions of those who have participated in our history. We want to invite all to come […]
Extreme is not so Extreme
This Sunday our Pastor John Douglas gave a challenging and thought-provoking message entitled “Extreme Unity.” This was the fourth message in ACC’s current “iWitness” series, based on the book of Acts. If you missed Sunday’s message, I would strongly encourage you to listen to it HERE. In the message, John makes several crucial points. First, […]
Rethinking Christmas
The story of Christ’s birth is a story of promise, hope, and a revolutionary love. So, what happened? What was once a time to celebrate the birth of a savior has somehow turned into a season of stress, traffic jams, and shopping lists. And when it’s all over, many of us are left with presents […]

Responding to the Call: ACC Sets it’s Course for our Children
Last Fall ACC clearly defined our mission to make discipleRs. We made it clear that the goal in everything we do would be to raise up disciples who will raise up more disciples. The win is not simply to get someone in the door or get them saved. No, the goal includes that, but is […]
“Jericho Walk” Day 1
In the past weeks of ACC’s “God’s Redemptive Story” series, a common theme has jumped out at us: Giants in the land. God told the Israelites, “I’ve given you this land…” But when the people saw the fortified cities and the giants, they were afraid – afraid enough to question God. 40 years later, God […]
Engaging with God’s Story
“Story” is a buzz-word in today’s culture. Why? I’m sure there are a number of reasons, but chief among them is the fact that for the most part, any claim to knowing truth is met with skepticism and distrust. In the past, a preacher could communicate truth from the pulpit and expect it to be […]
Encountering the Miraculous
Anthony and his family have been a part of our church for years. Now in his late 20’s, Anthony is one of those individuals that continually reminds us that having special needs often results in a surprising amount of love and joy that is unexpectedly experienced on behalf of those he interacts with. Anthony adds […]
