Christian Sermons from Calvary Chapel Greenmeadow, North Kingstown, RI

The Jews rejected Joseph and he saved them from death later on. They rejected Moses, and Moses led them out of captivity. As Stephen reminds them of this history, and how they went on to reject Jesus, they put Stephen to death, scattering the church and leading to further spreading of the word.

Charles Spurgeon said that he believes that a very large majority of church goers are merely unthinking slumbering worshipers of an unknown god. Like the men of Athens, they are religious, but lack relationship with the one true God.

Fear of man keeps us from sharing Jesus with others. If we have a relationship with Christ, we can share our personal story and experience more easily. But if we deny Him, what will Jesus do?

Pastor Rich shares a little about what his journey with God has been like and continues in Matthew where we learn that when Jesus sends us out, He sends us to the lost with the message of repentance for the Kingdom of heaven is near. He equips us so that we do not need to depend on ourselves.

Who were the apostles? Pastor Rich gives us a biblical and historical perspective on these twelve men. Each had an encounter with Jesus and each was a part of God's plan. As believers, we too have a calling and can be used by God.

If you believe in Jesus you've answered His first calling. But how can we know what He wants to do with our lives? An open heart is needed for the answer.

Feeling Stressed? Justin gives us Biblical truths to let us rest.

Jesus had compassion on the people who were being harassed and had no one to show them the way. The harvest we are to reap is these lost people. Pray for opportunity and make the most of each one granted.

We must always come to Jesus in faith with our problems. Faith comes through trust in His authority and we must submit to what He wants to do. Faith and obedience work together.

Do we seek religion or relationship? Strict adherence to tradition can rob us of joy but it is the joy of the Lord that is our strength.
