Federal Way Church of Christ Sermons

When heading into the wilderness, the people of God need to take stock before they take steps.

The Christian story is good news about the Son of God, but wilderness is an essential component. There is blessing for you in the wilderness.

In the Kingdom of Heaven, we are called to faithfully live what is old in ways that are constantly new and fresh.

The parable of the net is a warning to those who rage against God, a promise that God will come and restore all things, and an invitation to join him in the work of restoration.

The kingdom of God is for everyone and is worth everything. It fills us with joy and leaves us with a new identity.

The kingdom of heaven is not obvious, but it is inevitable. It's both a place to dwell and a force that transforms. And everyone is invited into the great story and work of the kingdom.

Are things good and getting better or bad and getting worse? This parable shows us the reality of the way things are, why they got this way, and how we should respond.

Jesus teaches in parables because they are pictures and stories that we can enter into and live from.

One of the greatest gifts the church can be to the world today is a non-anxious presence that brings about the transformation of true peace.

Peace is not only the absence of something, but the presence of wholeness -- and we've been looking for it in all the wrong places.
