A Solid Foundation

This is the first message of the series "Know What's Coming". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 4-part series, we'll see that when we respond to the calling of God--even though we know He'll provide all we need, and we've set our priorities to line up with the call--there will be trouble. In the message "Trials", we'll take a quick walk through the life of Joseph and see that, though trial after trial popped up along the way, often seeming to contradict the call, the God-given dream of the 17 year-old Joseph was always safe in God's hands.

This is the second message of the series "Know What's Coming". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 4-part series, we'll see that when we respond to the calling of God--even though we know He'll provide all we need, and we've set our priorities to line up with the call--there will be trouble. In the message "failures", we'll take a quick walk through the life of Jeremiah and see that, by human standards, he was a failure. We have no record of him succeeding at all in his ministry - except in his obedience. We'll see that we may not succeed the way we would like, but if we are obedient to the call, we are always successful.

This is the third message of the series "Know What's Coming". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 4-part series, we'll see that when we respond to the calling of God--even though we know He'll provide all we need, and we've set our priorities to line up with the call--there will be trouble. In the message "Persecution", we'll see that a life of godliness, a life every Christian should pursue, will always lead to persecution. But we'll also see that God guarantees our rescue - not from persecution, but through it.

This is the first message in our series "Pray Like This" from The Model Prayer in Matthew. We see in Matthew 6:9 the imperative to pray and the need to honor God first in our prayers.

This is the fifth and final message of the series "Know Your Priorities". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 5-part series, we'll look at how we are to make sure that our focus is purely on that to which God has called us and nothing else. In this message, we'll see that our worship, to be acceptable, must be preceded by obedience. Should we fail--as a church or as individuals--to get the order correct, we'll miss out on the promises of God, just as the older generation of Israelites did when they wandered 40 years in the desert.

This is the fourth message of the series "Know Your Priorities". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 5-part series, we'll look at how we are to make sure that our focus is purely on that to which God has called us and nothing else. In this message, we look at King Saul and his choice to be disobedient to God. We'll see that, though what he did would be considered the right thing any other time, it was the wrong thing (and cost him his kingship) since it wasn't what God told him to do. The lesson for us is that we don't want to replace the calling God has placed on our lives with something we think is easier, just as good, or even better.

This is the second message of the series "Know Your Priorities". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 5-part series, we'll look at how we are to make sure that our focus is purely on that to which God has called us and nothing else. In this message, we look at some snapshots of the life of Christ and see how He was singularly focused on what God had sent Him to do: go to the cross and offer salvation to the world. The lesson we'll learn from this is that when God calls, our lives should then reflect that calling in every way.

This is the third message of the series "Know Your Priorities". The series is part of a 5-month theme called "On Mission With God." In this 5-part series, we'll look at how we are to make sure that our focus is purely on that to which God has called us and nothing else. In this message, we look at a parable of Jesus where He shows us that, while we are on earth, we are to use the talents, abilities, and resources He has given us to reach the world for His kingdom. If we do not, the possibility is great that He will take those abilities and resources away from us. We are guaranteed to lose heavenly rewards if we do not use them.

In this message from Luke's account of Mary and Martha, we'll see that we need to never sacrifice the BEST thing in order to do the good thing.

For many churches, fasting is an all but ignored topic. But if Jesus talked about it, we must talk about. In this message, we'll see the need for fasting and the fact that it always accompanies prayer.
