How do we respond to the cultural acceptance and celebration of sin? Sins that have become socially acceptable over the years have become a challenge for us. It is almost like living in a cultural minefield. If we step one way or the other, we offend someone. Jesus was in the same situation in John, chapter 8. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares three things from Jesus’ response that are key for us. Jesus will lead us through these places of danger and the Holy Spirit will help you love everyone with the love of God.

When Jesus was getting ready to depart from this world, He told the disciples that the Holy Spirit that He was sending would make it possible for them to live the Christian life. The same is true for us today. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares three simple truths, from John 15:1-10, which are essential for us to live the Christian life. Everything we do as Christians should flow out of these ABCs.

On the day of Pentecost, the life of the church that Christ had been forming through His earthly ministry came into physical existence. On the day of Pentecost, God gave the church the gift of the Holy Spirit. Listen as Pastor Cameron Cloud shares three things about Pentecost from Acts 1 and 2. Everything we need as individuals, and everything we do as a church, must be done in the power of the Holy Spirit to glorify God and proclaim the message of the gospel to all nations.

Our lives are in the hands of a Master Craftsman. There are times in our lives when God will hold us over the hottest part of His flame to get the impurities out of our lives. This is what God did with Job as He refined him to reflect the image of God. Pastor Cameron Cloud concludes the series of sermons on Job with chapter 42, when Job confesses that he has not only heard about God, but now he knows God.

Just when we start thinking that we know more than we do, God begins to humble us. He begins to remind us how little we know. This is what God did with Job in chapters 38-41. Job has heard from his friends, and now it is time to hear from God. Listen, as Pastor Cameron Cloud shares the source of our peace, our victory, our hope, and our answers, no matter what is happening in our lives.

What you are fervent and passionate about before suffering, will determine where your focus is when you are suffering. Job is passionate about his sense of righteousness, and Elihu has heard enough. Elihu has a passion for the glory and righteousness of God. Listen as Pastor Cameron Cloud shares three truths that Elihu draws our minds to, in Job 32-37. When our minds are fixed on God’s truth, and we are focused on Him, it will establish the faith we need to get us through the suffering.

In the book of Job, chapters 4-31, Job is visited by three friends who are assessing Job’s life of suffering and offering their advice on why the suffering is happening. Over these chapters, as Job’s friends grew in intensity, they lessened in their civility. Pastor Cameron Cloud gives three applications in this sermon to show us how to help each other when suffering comes and how to stand firm in the righteousness of Jesus Christ.

It is a fact, from scripture and from our own lives, that often our greatest victories are followed by some of our greatest defeats. In Job chapter 3, Job’s life changes from the greatest triumph of faith in human history to the darkest of times. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares truths on the reality of suffering and despair and how believers are to respond. God loves us and because of what Christ did in a much greater darkness, we can find light in our darkness.

Every person suffers and every person goes through varying degrees of suffering. Why do we suffer? Suffering comes as an opportunity for God to be glorified by our faith. This sermon by Pastor Cameron Cloud is the first in a series of sermons from the book of Job titled, “Consider Job.” Listen as Pastor Cameron shares truths about Job from chapters 1 and 2 and how Job worshiped God, because of who God is, through his suffering. Most importantly, Job points us to Jesus who suffered the greatest suffering that could ever be suffered on our behalf.

Celebrating atonement! Leviticus 16 deals with one primary event in the life of the people of Israel, the day of atonement. This was the day, once a year, when their sins were atoned. When Jesus died this was no longer necessary. Man could be restored in his relationship with God through the righteousness of Christ, our sacrifice. Listen as Pastor Cameron Cloud shares 2 important truths about the challenge and the completion of the atonement.
