Access Church Weekend Messages

Whether we know it or not and whether we use them or not, God has given every person a set of talents and abilities and gifts. To be used in the home, at the workplace, in the community and in His church. In this message, we take a look at what God sees when He looks at our purpose and try to re-align our own viewpoint.

If God could only ask one thing from us, what do you think it would be? Most people think He wants our money. But that's not true at all. If God wanted our money, he would take it. In this message, we dive into the one thing that God wants from us...and we discover that it's a much deeper issue than our dollars.

Jesus had a very clear vision for what one thing would define His disciples. This one thing was the single factor that would set His followers apart from all other people groups. In this message, we discuss what "this one thing" is and how it plays out in our lives today.

All you need is love. Yes, lyrics to a Beatles song. But more importantly, a true statement for people wanting to be successful parents. Love is the ingredient. In this message we take a look at why love is so important, and how maybe our definitions of love need to change.

The job of being a "parent" is a big role. But before we can discuss and learn how we can be better parents, we need go back and take a look at how we were parented. Learning from the past will give us the best chance to grow in the future.

We proudly put bumper stickers on our cars about how smart our kids are. We call up friends and tell them about the great deals we scored on purchases. We share pictures of our amazing meals on Instagram and Facebook. We are all proud about certain things, and have no problem sharing it with others. In this message, we discover how the same principle is true for our spiritual growth and measuring our movement.

Do you find yourself wanting to be around Christians more than before? Or do you find yourself wanting to be around church-related activities more than you did last year? In this message, we discover yte another way to measure our spiritual growth.

Life change. When we think of people growing spiritually, this is usually the first thing we look for. But so often, we get caught up in the external life changes...is that a reliable measurement? In this message, we'll take a look at how to measure our spiritual growth by life change and what we can do to produce life change.

Getting a good idea of where we are spiritually is important - but how can we tell if we're hiding parts of our lives from our friends, ourselves or even God. In the first week of this series, we talk about the first step towards measuring our own spiritual growth.

If you've ever been to any type of church service, you know that there's gonna be some sort of singing involved. Christians call it "worship". But why are there such huge variances between churches - in style, in length, in crowd involvement? In this message, we bring some clarity to our "worship" time at Abundant Life.
