Collinsville Church of Christ Sermons

God moves in many ways to get our attention, to call his people back to the path they should be on. But are we listening? Will we make the changes he calls us to make, or will we ignore or change the message he sends us?

Things are most definitely not right in our world, and because of his great love, God will not allow cruelty and corruption to continue unchecked. His justice will prevail, and his judgment will make things right once and for all. The question is… Are our neighbors ready to face judgment? Are we?
This series in the Book of Amos calls us to take our faith seriously.

Being a follower of Jesus is more than an intellectual exercise; it is a life that we are called to live. If we aren't taking our faith seriously enough to actually do what Jesus calls us to do, what is the purpose of our belief?

When we find ourselves in an overly negative mindset, it's like we have a filter in our brains and all we see is the bad around us. God calls us to something better—away from incessant grumbling and complaining to a life of hope.

If we are honest, we all have doubts from time to time, and those doubts are not necessarily a betrayal of our faith. In fact, if we are taking our thoughts captive, our doubts can lead us to the great questions that push our faith even deeper.

What do you see when you look at others? When you look in the mirror? Too often we evaluate people based on the standards of the world and as a result, we mistreat others and devalue ourselves. But our God tells us a different story about the value of a person.

What really gets under your skin and makes you angry? Our anger can often be a recipe for disaster, but if it is brought into obedience to Christ, it can be a catalyst for great godly change.

What are the thoughts that stir up your anxiety? For some of us, anxious thoughts about both big and small things seem to beat us down day after day. The good news is that we can learn to let go of those thoughts as we learn how to grow in our trust in God.

One of the biggest obstacles we face in getting our minds right is our own ego. We want to be kings and queens of our own kingdoms, but we are called to be servants in God's kingdom. In this lesson, we explore how to keep Jesus on the throne of our hearts.
