Join us at 3pm in The Refinery to watch the Superbowl on the Big Screen! The Deli will be serving Hot Dogs, Wings, Chili, Nachos, Mozarella Sticks and much more for a great price!

If you don't like football, come for the conversation and commercials.

STAY FOR THE WORSHIP SERVICE. There will be only ONE FUEL worship service this Sunday that will begin 30 minutes after the game ends. Awesome Music plus Pastor Johnny Baker will be re-teaching the weekend message LIVE!

Bring FAMILY & FRIENDS! We're going to have a great time!

The idea is to create a central place where were we can reach out to one another within the Saddleback Church family. You are welcome to post your items for sale and items you need, rooms for rent and looking to rent a room, professional services offered and sought.

In Scripture, shortly after people said “yes” to Jesus, they were baptized and identified with a community of Christ followers. Baptism is an outward act of an inward transformation that has taken place through having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

If you or someone you know would like to be baptized, please email Pastor Chris at chrisr@saddleback.com

If you haven't taken Leadership Training 1 (LT1) yet, Pastor Chris will be team teaching it this Sunday night 6-8pm in The Refinery Gym. There is no charge.

This class is for those of you that are interested in improving your small group or finding more out about small groups. There will also be a time following the class to ask questions and get answers.

Our survey results are flying in fast, and so far the number class desired from our FUEL friends is Spiritual Foundations with an overwhelming 60% response! Many of those wanted to see a class happen on Wednesday nights. So here's my speedy reply. If you are interested in attending the below class, email me ahead of time so I can connect you to a Host. We will have a FUEL Table for FUEL friends to sit together. Some are planning to grab coffee/food/dessert after the class. This is a great opportunity to grow and connect!

Teachings on 11 core truths that are essential to our Christian faith and will help us develop a biblical perspective of God, the world and our relationships. Foundations has helped change the lives of thousands of people.

When: Begins Wednesday, January 27 from 6:30-8:30pm
Where: The Refinery Gym
Cost: $25 for the 22 part study guide or $10 class fee if you already have the study guide
Schedule: The class is 24 weeks. We'll meet pretty much every week, taking a couple weeks off for Easter and in June. We will end sometime in August.

My suggestion is that you join us whenever you can, even if you can't attend all of the classes. We'll be teaching this class every year, probably in three smaller blocks/sessions, so that you can make up classes that you miss. We'll also have DVDs available for you to check out to catch up on any class that you miss.

I highly recommend this solid study that Pastor Matt McGill will be teaching.

Make 2010 YOUR BEST YEAR EVER of spiritual growth and relational connection!
Pastor Chris

Help prepare and enable people at Saddleback to bring comfort and hope to others in crisis following local and global disasters. We seek to comfort the hurting, give hope to the hopeless and to move the survivors from relief to development with care and compassion.

2 Corinthians 8:12, “Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.”

Notice the attitude, “give it eagerly.”

Notice the amount, “give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.”

The Radical Giver knows that God is much more interested in WHY you give what you give and HOW you give it than the amount you give. The Radical Giver knows that God does not need your time and God does not need your money. The Radical Giver knows that God does not need anything that you've got to give. The Radical Giver knows that what God wants is your heart, your attitude.

It's not about amount. It's about attitude.

If you’d like to give God your time as a FUEL Volunteer, email ChrisR@saddleback.com to discover the many opportunities available. If you’d like to give financially, Click Here or drop an envelope in one of our offering pails during Sunday night worship service.

Praying that we’ll be radical givers in 2010!
Pastor Chris
