Pastor Nate brings the message, “Protecting Unity with the Lord’s Supper” - Part 1, from 1 Corinthians 11:17-22. We are returning back to chapter 11 for the next two weeks and studying the unity of the local church around the Lord's Table. The problem was that the Corinthians were so wrongfully divided that their practice of the Lord's Supper was actually invalidated. There are crucial lessons to learn and practices to apply within this important passage so that our church reflects Biblical, God-honoring unity.
Pastor Stephen brings the message, "The Importance of Love" from 1 Corinthians 12:28-13:1-8a. Scripture is filled with many beautiful passages that seem to be made for coffee mugs and decorative posters, and 1 Corinthians 13 could certainly fit into that category. But within this wonderful passage about love is also a difficult call - to live a life that models that beauty consistently in the world around us. So on Sunday, we'll not only talk about the beauty of biblical love, but also about the high calling this love places on our lives.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Grow Where You Are” from 1 Corinthians 7:17-24. Is it a challenge to be content with your lot in life? It is easy to glance side to side, see the prizes that God has given to others, and wish we could have what they have. In this section of chapter 7, God calls us to realize that we ultimately have the greatest of gifts already so that we can thrive wherever He has placed us.
Pastor Nate brings the message, "Single, Married, Divorced…To the Glory of God” from 1 Corinthians 7:8-16. It's amazing how sufficient the Word of God is concerning each area of life. As we continue in our study of 1 Corinthians 7, Paul shows us how to live for the glory of God no matter what relationship status we find ourselves in.
This message is from Leviticus 8-10. As the book of Leviticus unfolds, the worshiper realizes that God must be “sanctified (set apart) and glorified” in every area of life. We could say it this way: “All of who I am, from head to toe, is to be given over to the Lord.” That is more easily said than done. Thankfully, there is a Man who has been perfect for us.
This message is from Exodus 40:34-35 and Leviticus 1:1. This is the first message in a six week study of Leviticus. By working through this book, we are going to better understand the holiness of God ad the final sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf. If you are intimidated or skeptical about a study in Leviticus, welcome to the crowd.
This message is from 1 Peter 2:18-25. Resurrection Sunday, the day that we especially celebrate the empty tomb and Jesus’ victory over death, is fast approaching. In this message we will study the impact of Jesus’ life for both Christians and non-Christians. Next week is the death of Jesus, and the following week (Easter) is the resurrection of Jesus.
The message is from Matthew 28:18-20. Matthew 28 has long been the hallmark passage of Missions. Jesus’ command to go and make disciples has compelled thousands of people to go and share the Good News to gospel destitute locations. But what is the significance of this passage for us? Why should we make disciples? These are the questions that will be answered in this message.
The message is from Acts 13:1-12. After the Lord called Barnabas and Saul to missions, they acted upon that call. It wasn’t easy. In fact, they were met with opposition right off the bat. Yet, through their obedience God fulfilled His good purposes. When given an opportunity from the Lord, are you willing to go forward with it…even if it’s hard?
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.
