If you’re a Christ-follower, you know what it’s like to have gone through a change of heart; when you become born again, there should be a shift in your personal desires. Pastor Bill reminds us in today’s message that walking with Jesus should look like an ongoing refinement of our lifestyle – a continuous transformation. Don’t get caught up in the world’s ideas of what your life should look like; stick to God’s vision and immerse yourself in His love and grace and His perfect plan for your life: using you to further the Gospel.

Sometimes it feels like God keeps His distance from us; like you just want to do what He’s calling you to do, but you can’t figure out what that is! Well, no matter how abandoned you might feel, Pastor Bill is here today to reminds us that God WANTS His will to be accomplished; there’s no reason for Him to hide it unless we haven’t proven ourselves as trustworthy and reliable. God’s general will has been laid out for us in the Bible; follow Him in the general, and He with be faithful to reveal the details to you.

The church always seems to struggle with ideas of doctrine. We argue about the unspoken things in the Bible when really, we should simply accept the mysteries of God. Pastor Bill reminds us today that God desires for ALL people to repent and be saved. He wants to spend eternity with ALL of His people – despite the sins they’ve committed and the falls they’ve endured. Don’t get caught up in all the details when all you really need to know is that God loves you and wants to call you His child.

We live in a society where everything is at our fingertips if only we’re willing to work for it. But God goes against the grain. Pastor Bill reminds us today that there’s nothing you can actively do in order to earn salvation or grace or love from God – those things are given freely already, if only you accept them. It’s an unnatural feeling, to be completely accepted, even when all our flaws are known. If you’ve received Christ, you know that everything you do is merely in response to everything He’s already done.

Are you a teachable person? It can be humbling to be corrected by others, but everyone needs a nudge from time to time. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will remind you that correction from the Lord can come in the form of correction from brothers and sisters in Christ. It makes the body of Christ stronger and better when we keep each other in check. Sometimes the truth is hard to hear… but know that it’s for the best. Will you keep an open mind when corrected by others in the body of Christ?

When you give your life to Jesus, you’ll never be the same again. He changes you from the inside out. In the message today, Pastor Bill will challenge you to receive the word and allow your life to be completely transformed. Jesus overcame sin and death for you. What an amazing gift. What changes have you been compelled to make in your life? Some changes come easy and others require a step of faith. There’s nothing that God can’t do... will you trust Him as you move forward in your faith?

Everyone falls short and disappoints at some point in life… but as the body of Christ, we’re called to love one another despite those downfalls. In the message today, Pastor Bill will encourage you to do your part as you seek to walk in unity with other believers. When you’re too busy fighting other Christians, you’ve lost the battle with the enemy… that’s exactly what satan wants. Will you love others the way that God loves us, even when it seems impossible to do so?

Are you driven by your impulses? It’s impossible to control your reactions when you’re going through life without God at the center. When He’s Lord of your life, everything changes. In the scripture passage today, Paul addresses the Corinthian church about the way they were conducting themselves. Their actions weren’t glorifying the Lord. Pastor Bill will challenge you today to take a look at your life and evaluate where you’re at. Could you use some corrections? Thankfully God meets us where we’re at and leads us along.

Are you living for the things of this world? Maybe you’ve come to realize that this world disappoints and people let you down… Well, as Pastor Bill points out in the message today, God will never let you down. Pastor Bill will challenge you to live your life with the end in mind. When you let go of the things of this world and focus on eternity, your entire perspective changes. The things that used to matter will only fade away someday. Will you allow Him to be Lord of your life?

Are you overwhelmed by your downfalls or do you feel like you just don’t measure up? Well, in today’s message, Pastor Bill shares how God can be your strength during times of weakness. He’ll encourage you to pray and wait on the Lord as Paul did in the scripture. He may not take it all away, but He will work through it in His timing. Thankfully our timing is not the same as God’s timing. He sees the bigger picture and He knows what’s best in the long run. Will you trust Him today?
