Pastor Nate brings the message, "The Character of a Gospel Witness” from 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12. One of the greatest blessings that God gives us is the privilege of sharing the Gospel with non-Christians. It's a joyful moment knowing that God is very specifically using that moment for His glory. As we long to practice evangelism more and more, Paul shows us four important lessons for being a Gospel Witness.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Life-Changing" Part 2 from 1 Thessalonians 1:4-10. In the opening chapter of 1 Thessalonians we are seeing the power of the Gospel in the lives of believers. Salvation does bring about change. And, as a church we want to be that change for the glory of God and for encouragement and witness to those around us.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Life-Defining" from 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5. This message begins a new sermon series in 1 Thessalonians where the opening verses present defining marks of God's salvation in our lives. When we come to believe the Gospel, God empowers us to live changed lives that please and glorify Him.
Tom Siefert brings the message, "The Triumph of God" from Colossians 2:13-15. In our world where it appears evil is in control, we need to keep our focus on God, remembering He is the triumphant ruler over all things. Our hope rests on that truth!
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Have You Forgotten?” from Hosea 12-13. Our memory can be like leaky buckets, and therefore we need regular reminders. In the closing chapters of Hosea we see the prophet calling God's people to return back to the One whom they have forgotten. Does your life demonstrate a pattern of forgetting God? Or remembering Him in all things?
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Redemption and Return” from Hosea 3. James Montgomery Boice called Hosea 3 "the greatest chapter in the Bible because it portrays the greatest story in the Bible." That story is about Christ's love for the church that comes at a great cost. It was our redemption price that Jesus paid, and this is illustrated in Hosea's purchase of a woman who had wandered far from him.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "God Will…” from Hosea 2. The unfaithful spouse is the major scene in Hosea 1-3. It's a sobering picture that God gives to us for the purpose of seeing our sin and unfaithfulness to Him. And yet, as you follow the story, God declares that instead of writing off His bride, He will tenderly bring her back to Himself. Praise the Lord for His forgiveness to us all!
Pastor Nate brings the message, "The Scandal of Our Sin” from Hosea 1:1-2:1. This message begins a new series in the book of Hosea. Chapter 1 starts with a powerful scandal that God uses to help us see our sin against Him. The story closes in 2:1 with the hope of mercy. Hosea is a wonderful book that bleeds with the Gospel.
