Christ Community Church of Magnolia Sermons

Have you ever felt left out or forgotten when you needed help? Most of us have. As a church, how can we make sure everyone in our church family is cared for and no one’s needs are overlooked? Let’s look at God’s Word to see how this issue came up in the early church and how they handled it.

What do you do with the Cross? For the Christian, the cross is the crux of our faith. All things rise and fall on Christ's death & resurrection. But why? Let’s look more closely at John’s account of the crucifixion, not just to remember familiar details, but to understand the significance and personal implications of the most pivotal event in human history.

How we respond to the truth reveals what’s truly going on in our hearts and minds. Today, we will see heart motives revealed through the different responses to the King of Kings. So here’s the question for us today…. What kind of heart response do we have to Jesus?

Irony describes a situation where what actually happens is strikingly different from what you would normally expect. Irony can make us laugh, learn, and love, to name a few. Today, we find much spiritual irony in the trial of Jesus before Pilate. Come, let's open our hearts to receive God's word and learn and apply it to our lives today!

Peter was confident that he would faithfully follow Jesus, even to the point of death, yet only hours later, fear and self-preservation led him to deny Jesus three times. Like Peter, our pride and selfishness often reveal that we are not as faithful as we imagine ourselves to be. Yet while Peter fails, Jesus continues to display perfect love and selflessness. Peter’s story reminds us that our failures are not beyond the reach of Jesus’ grace. Jesus restores His people and transforms them into faithful followers.

We see injustice everywhere, and our news feeds remind us of it every day. It’s natural to long for justice in a broken world. As we read the last chapters of John, we see Jesus face the greatest injustices—his betrayal, arrest, trials, and finally his death on the cross. But the greatest injustice of all was actually God’s plan to make things right for those who don’t deserve it. Come, let’s discover deep gospel truths together today!

Hours before He was delivered up to suffer and die on the Cross, Jesus prayed not only for His disciples, but also for you and me. Stop and think about that for a minute! But WHAT was He praying for you and me? Let’s open God’s word and find out!

Guest Preacher: Robbie Cortez | 2 Samuel 9 by Christ Community Church of Magnolia

Have you ever listened in on a conversation that was both interesting and uplifting? Today’s passage gives us one of those rare moments in the gospels where we get to see what Jesus says to His Father. We get to hear His prayer for His disciples, and it is truly amazing. Let’s open the Bible together and find out what Jesus prays for those who follow Him.

People look for many ways to deal with deep sorrow, loss, or hard times. As Christians, we know that Jesus has promised us a steady hope when life gets tough. But how can we trust these promises? This morning, let’s see where our hope comes from by listening to some of Jesus’ last words to His disciples before He went to the cross.
