The message title is "Finding Hope for Depression" from Psalm 42:1-5. With many friends and family members experiencing the effects of melancholy and depression, we will be hearing a sermon dealing with Biblical helps for this type of suffering.
Psalms
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Create in Me a Clean Heart” from Psalm 51. In our third message concerning repentance we will look at the Biblical response to sin found in Psalm 5.
Amos
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Seek God and Live” from the book of Amos. This week we will turn to the book of Amos and do a fly-over of it in one sermon. Like last week (Joel), the theme of repentance once again comes to the surface. What does it look like to practice regular repentance? And, where do I even start? We'll explore those questions this Sunday.
Joel
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Rend Your Heart, Not Your Garments” from Joel. We're taking a break from 1 Corinthians until after the holidays and starting a short series in the minor prophets. This week our sermon will cover the book of Joel where God calls us to practice repentance at the core of who we are: the heart.
1 Corinthians
Pastor Nate brings the message, "A Powerful Weakness” from 1 Corinthians 4:9-21. The first section of Paul's letter comes to a close with a climactic statement that the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power. In other words, the measure of a person's walk with God is not determined by what he says but by the power of God at work in his life.
1 Corinthians
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Servants and Stewards" from 1 Corinthians 4:1-5. In our study of 1 Corinthians, we've seen that there have been weird loyalties in the church to leaders like Paul, Apollos, and Peter. Certainly not helpful to the unity of God's people, then or now! As he closes out this first section of the letter, Paul shows us what leaders in the church are to be: servants of Christ and stewards of God. But then, doesn't that sound like the role for all Christians?
