“Surrender – Submission, Humility, Sacrifice”
This is the conclusion of a short series on the subject of surrender. It draws our three aspects that are key components of surrender and issues that we need to take seriously in each of our lives. Each area demands personal reflection and asking God where we might do better or how might we live these things out better in our lives. We know you will be encouraged by the truth of God’s Word and challenged from it to take…
“Surrender: A Place of Peace”
We are bombarded every day with many concerns. Finances seem to often be an issue in a world that is telling us to buy, buy, buy with money we don’t have. The health of our loved ones, neighbors, and friends fails. Then we have the daily pressures of our jobs and family and so on and so on and so on. Worry, anxiety, fear all plague us at least at one point or another in our lives. The Apostle Paul…
“Surrendering Divided Affections”
God calls us to love Him. If you are honest with yourself though, that love for Him can be distracted and divided by our love for the world and the things that it contains. The Apostle John addresses this all too common issue in his first epistle. Take some time to listen to this second part of the SURRENDER series as we continue to as the question – “Would I give this up because God has something better for me?”
“Surrender: God Has Something Better for You”
This is the start of our new summer series on SURRENDER. Throughout we will keep coming back to the key question – “Would I give this up because God has something better for me?”. That is a tough question that we need to be honest in answering. Our prayer is that as we go through this that God would open our hearts and minds and reveal to us the things in our lives that really we need to surrender to Him.…
“A Formula for Running”
I am not a runner, but I have observed running enough to know that every person has a specific formula to help them achieve greater and greater success. The Christian life is compared in the Scriptures to a race that we are to run. Hebrews 12:1-3 lays out the formula for us as Christian runners to achieve success in our race of faith.
“New Creation in Christ”
The work of Christ has made salvation available to all who will come in faith. Those that do respond have an amazing work done in them. The Apostle Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:17 that we are “new creations” in Christ. This short verse is an encouragement and call to action in many respects if we look at it in depth.
“Four Focuses on Jesus”
Join us as we look through each gospel and how the various writers present a different aspect about Jesus. As they do, you’ll find their message gives us hope, encourages our hearts, and calls us to action as believers.
“The Mark of a Disciple of Christ – LOVE”
This continues what we talked about a few weeks ago concerning the love that the Apostle Paul speaks of in 1 Corinthians 13.
“What Is Love?”
Interesting question, right? People have been trying to answer that question for a long time and haven’t always been able to define it very well. Well, someone has already for us. The answer to that question has been around for centuries. And we find the answer in 1 Corinthians 13 where the Apostle Paul spells out for us what love looks like and by doing so answer the question for us–what is love? We trust you’ll be encouraged by this…
“What Happens When We Die”
There seems to be a lot of confusion today about what actually happens when we die. Every where you turn someone seems to have a different answer. Turning to the truth of God’s Word though, we find the answer to the questions so many have. Take a few moments to listen to this sermon on the next important piece of Scripture to put in your toolbox.
“Calling All Believers to Change”
Last week we looked at the first of the two commands we find in Romans 12:2 – “Don’t be conformed”. This week, we look at the positive command given by Paul – “BE TRANSFORMED”. This answers our question: how do we change if we are told not to be conformed to the world? Take a few minutes to listen to this sermon. Our prayer is that you will be encouraged and challenged by the truth of God’s word as we review…
“Sugar Cookies & Springerle”
Odd name for a sermon title focused on Romans 12:1-2, right? You’ll catch on to where we’re headed though with the title by taking some time to listen to this sermon as we continue our series on the Toolbox of Important Scriptures. **Sorry we had to take the audio file down temporarily because it didn’t record correctly. We will investigate and hopefully have it back up soon.
