Pastor Nate brings the message "God’s Gifts for the Journey” from Joshua 1. This message begins a seven part series through the book of Joshua which is a testimony that God is Faithful to His promises. For Israel the journey into the land is one that seems overwhelming, even impossible, but God has given them His Word and His Presence. God's gifts enable His people to endure.
Pastor Stephen brings the message, "God's Authority in the Face of Death." While there are many stories of Christian heroes who have suffered much for the Faith, many of us wouldn't want to voluntarily sign up for a path like theirs. But what happens when God brings unrequested loss into our lives? How do we think about His power, plans, or authority to act when approaching these difficult seasons? In this message we'll see from Ezekiel 24:15-27 how God uses the grief He's placed in our paths to glorify Him and to serve His grand purposes.
Pastor Nate brings the message "Forgiveness from the Heart” from Matthew 18:21-35. It’s impossible to live in this world without relational hurt and pain. The question is this, how do Christians look to Jesus for help when someone sins against you? This message shows how Jesus explains the important, life-giving practice of forgiveness.
Pastor Nate brings the message ""A Perplexing Resurrection" from Luke 24:1-12. Christians all over the world celebrate the reality of the Risen Jesus. We see how the women were perplexed at the tomb, how the angels had a proclamation of truth, and how the disciples had varying responses to the resurrection. Our perplexities come to rest when we lay hold of the Risen Savior.
Pastor Nate brings the message "The King Who Wept” from Luke 19:28-40. This message is the celebration of Jesus coming into Jerusalem just days before His death. He is a King entering the capital city to shouts of praise. Yet, He weeps over the blindness of their hearts. We have a Savior who has power to save and compassion for those who need Him.
The message is taken from Ephesians 6:18-24. Ever intimidated by sharing The Gospel with others? It appears Paul was too because he asks for prayer that he would be bold in this area. "What do we make of this?" and "how is it to be applied?" will be the bulk of the sermon as we wrap up our study on Ephesians.
The message is taken from Ephesians 6:18. Christians experience continual, spiritual warfare because Satan does not take holidays or vacations. Our battle rages on, and in light of that God gives us one more way to engage in war: prayer. We'll be studying what the Bible has to say about the important practice of prayer.
This message is taken from Ephesians 6:10-18. Satan is full of nasty deception, using countless schemes of attack in spiritual warfare. He’s going after the jugular vein of our faith in Christ. In this passage we learn how to stand firm and how to fight back in battle with the victory-giving armor God provides.
The message is, "Everyday Work for God” - Part 2 from Ephesians 6:5-9. Each Christian is called to render his/her service to the Lord (Ephesians 6:7), meaning that whatever task God has given to you today is to be done unto the Lord. We’ll look at how everyday work is meaningful to and encouraged by God.
This message is taken from Ephesians 6:5-9. Experiencing discontentment with your day-to-day work? Wondering if there is anything significant to the thousands of hours you spend in a lifetime on your daily tasks? Is God using this for a lasting purpose? Why should I even work? We will be answering these question in this two part series on work.
Pastor Nate and Jim Murphy, recently returned from a visit to Phil Hunt (Zambia) and Doug Frye (Portugal), recap their visit, ministry, and impressions of God’s work through Lakeshore Baptist’s missionaries.
This message is taken from Ephesians 5:25-33. When it comes to the way they relate to their wives, husbands tend to fall into three categories: resentment, respect, or love. Husband, God has given you a clear path to follow in regards to your marriage: love your wife as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.
