Cuyahoga Valley Church Sunday Sermons (Broadview)

Elder Kyle Gustafson highlights 2 John’s core message: our unity as Christians rests on embracing Jesus as the eternal “truth” and living out His love together. He explains that genuine faith isn’t merely knowing facts, but walking in Christ’s teaching—loving one another in obedience—and warns us to guard against anyone who denies Jesus’ true identity, lest we lose the very foundation of our community.

Tony reminds us that though our outer lives can feel like a mis-assembled playground—frustrating, broken, and ready to quit—our inner hope in Christ is unshakable, renewed daily by the Spirit, and shaped through every trial. Drawing on Paul’s words, he gives us four unbreakable truths: we are secure in Christ, strengthened day by day, refined by suffering, and set on eternity. When we fix our gaze on the unseen, everlasting glory rather than temporary pain, we don’t lose heart.

Pastor Joe continues our Life on Purpose series by teaching from 2 Corinthians 8:1–9. This week, we look at the Macedonian believers as a model for genuine generosity and consider how our giving reflects our spiritual health. Generosity isn't about guilt or ability—it's about grace. It's not a financial issue, but a spiritual one. Watch as Pastor Joe explores four key truths about giving with joy and surrender.

On this Mother’s Day, we explored what 2 Corinthians 12 teaches us about weakness. Paul reminds us that God’s strength isn’t hindered by our struggles—it shines through them. When we stop resenting our weakness and start surrendering it, we find that His grace really is sufficient.

This week Rick Duncan preaches about how life's dizzying challenges—illustrated by a wild teacup ride at Disney—mirror the instability many experience in a fallen world, yet amidst the chaos, Jesus remains the unchanging foundation of hope. He draws on his own experience of physical disorientation to emphasize that while the world spins with failures, toxic relationships, and uncertainty, the immutable nature of Christ provides steadfast stability. Rick urges believers to counteract life's turbulence by staying true to sound biblical teachings, drawing near to Jesus through prayer and Scripture, and extending that stability to others through acts of good.
