Sometimes we are our own worst enemy.  We may be struggling and striving to achieve something while at the same time our own poor choices hold us back from success.  In II Kings 17 Pastor Michael Hughes shows us how the kings of Israel doomed themselves and their kingdoms. 

Sometimes it's important to call a family meeting to communicate, connect, and encourage each other.  As Pastor Michael Hughes explains in 1 Corinthians 16:1-4 this was also necessary for the early church families. In fact, our message begins with a family meeting of our own here at Calvary Chapel Emmett to discuss the upcoming year and what could be in store for our church family.

It can be a little discouraging to think about how difficult life can be and how long it will remain that way.  We must never forget the incredible hope that we have through Christ.  In 1 Corinthians 1:35-58, Pastor Michael Hughes shares with us the encouraging and inspiring words that God gave Paul to bring hope to believers. 

Nothing lasts forever.  There is no job. or circumstance, or situation that ever remains permanent. As Pastor Michael Hughes shares from 2 Kings 15 & 16, we'll see that God's word illustrates this point through the rise and fall of various kings and kingdoms.

Every choice we make has a consequence.  It may be good or bad but choices will always come back around in one way or another.  Pastor Michael Hughes illustrates this point through 2 Kings 14 & 15 and the choices made by kings that have had dramatic effects on the history of the nation of Israel.

The resurrection of Jesus from the dead was, and still is, one of the most difficult miracles to wrap your mind around.  As Pastor Michael Hughes explains in 1 Corinthians 15:12-33, the most amazing part of the resurrection isn't just that Jesus came back to life. The most amazing part is what He did to death itself. 

Does life ever feel like a roller coaster? Or maybe it seems as though your miraculous mountain top moments of faith are always followed by deep dark depressing valleys.  During this year's Thanksgiving Community Service our own Pastor Jason Hill encouraged us to be thankful not only for the peaks, but the troughs of life also.

What is the gospel? More importantly, what does the gospel mean to you?  In 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 Pastor Michael Hughes shows us how important the gospel is to us, not only for salvation but for everyday living.

II Kings chapter 13 is the historical account of a very turbulent and transitional time in Israel.  Take a listen as Pastor Michael Hughes explains what is happening during these difficult times as new Kings arise and the great prophet Elisha dies.

Is there such a thing as having too much of a good thing?  In 1 Corinthians 14 Pastor Michael Hughes explains to us God's structure for much of what we call church today, as well as the exercising of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
