Canyon Creek Church Sermons

Ever wonder what was going on in Jesus's heart on the way to the cross? Psalm 69 takes us there — written a thousand years early, it captures his anguish, his loneliness, and his thirst in startling detail, then turns to a song of triumph on the other side. Join us this Sunday as we discover how this ancient prayer becomes our best window into the suffering and victory of Christ.

In Psalm 66 the psalmist calls the whole earth to worship the God who saves, trusts him through seasons of refining, and invites others to hear the story of his faithfulness. This psalm reminds us that God's mighty acts are not confined to the pages of history. The God who delivered Israel through the sea is the same God who preserves his people through trials, hears the prayers of those who belong to him, and is worthy of our praise. Join us this Sunday as we consider God's salvation, our trials, and the testimony of his grace through Jesus Christ.

Fleeing through the wilderness, David dares to sing that God's steadfast love is better than life itself. This message from our series "From the Outside In" shows how the King who thirsted on a cross makes that song true for everyone who takes refuge in Him.

When God feels far away, don't listen to your despair, don't trust your self-salvation projects, preach the gospel to your soul, and hope in God again.

Where is your rock and fortress? King David teaches us to rest in the knowledge of God's constant presence and strong support. Join us this Sunday as we learn from Psalm 62 to trust deeply the Rock and Fortress who is with us, around us, and in our hearts. Our trust rests in God alone!

After a year of hiding his sin, King David finally broke — and out of that brokenness came Psalm 51, the most honest prayer in the Bible. At its center is the boldest request anyone can make: "Create in me a clean heart, O God," asking God to do the one thing no person can do for himself. Come and see what God can make clean.

Why does it rattle our faith to watch people who want nothing to do with God do so well? Psalm 49 calls us to face that question honestly, naming the fear and the envy stirring underneath it, following a grasping life all the way to where it actually ends, and then pointing past everything money can buy to the one thing it never could: a ransom for the soul. This message moves from grasping to giving, and finally to the only One who can pay the price we never could.

The Psalms don't pretend life is easy — they name what we actually feel and point us to the One who holds us through it. This summer we are walking through Book II of the Psalter, nine weeks of honest prayers from people who discovered that God meets us in the wilderness before he brings us out of it. Join us as we begin From the Outside In — a journey through Psalms 42–72, starting this Sunday with Psalm 46.

Join us this Sunday as CCYouth helps lead our worship service. We’d love for you to worship with us as one church family across generations. This Sunday’s sermon will be from Psalm 86:1–11, focusing on David’s prayer: “Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name." In a distracted and divided world, God calls us to wholehearted devotion. Come hear how the Lord meets us with mercy and draws our hearts back to Himself.

As we come to the final chapter of Revelation, we’re reminded that no matter how noisy or uncertain the world feels, our hope is anchored in Jesus and his promise to come again. Revelation 22 lifts our eyes to the beautiful future God has prepared, where the curse is undone, sorrow is no more, and we will finally see his face. Until that day, the church lives with longing, hope, and this simple prayer on our lips: Come, Lord Jesus, come.
