  • Are We Really Not Supposed to Judge People?

    Sermon Series: "Real Questions"

    Responding to real questions, Pastor Dallas’s sermon series engages with real faith questions. Some of the questions might seem irreverent and you might wonder if it’s okay to talk about. If we only answer safe questions, we aren’t actually safe for questions. There aren’t always easy answers, but there is always an opportunity to grow and find God in the midst of life’s questions.

    This week’s question is: Are we really not supposed to judge people? In reality, we judge non-stop, like our “radar” is always on. Society ranks people by jobs, income, or status. Schools judge us and workplaces judge us. In our personal lives, we judge to see if we have anything in common with another. We judge to see if they are friend or foe. So, are we really not supposed to judge people?

    Sermon preached by Pastor Dallas Flippin, on Sunday, August 8, 2021 at the First Baptist Church of Jackson, MI.

  • If God Made Me "Perfect," Why Do I Have a Disability?

    Responding to real questions, Pastor Dallas's sermon series engages with real faith questions. Some of the questions might seem irreverent and you might wonder if it's okay to talk about. If we only answer safe questions, we aren't actually safe for questions. There aren’t always easy answers, but there is always an opportunity to grow and find God in the midst of life’s questions.

    This week's question is: "If God made me "perfect" why do I have a disability?" Pastor Dallas will discuss the differing theological perspectives around disability before offering good news about God's vision of the world and for the world.

  • What Should the Christian Response Be to Hell?

    Sermon Series: "Real Questions"

    Responding to real questions, Pastor Dallas’s sermon series engages with real faith questions. Some of the questions might seem irreverent and you might wonder if it’s okay to talk about. If we only answer safe questions, we aren’t actually safe for questions. There aren’t always easy answers, but there is always an opportunity to grow and find God in the midst of life’s questions.

    This week’s question is: “Why is it important to so many Christians that someone go to hell?” Pastor Dallas will examine the theological developments of hell, Christian attitudes towards hell, and the story of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31).

  • Real Questions: What the Hell is Going On?

    Sermon Series: "Real Questions"

    Responding to real questions, Pastor Dallas’s sermon series engages with real faith questions. Some of the questions might seem irreverent and you might wonder if it’s okay to talk about. If we only answer safe questions, we aren’t actually safe for questions. There aren’t always easy answers, but there is always an opportunity to grow and find God in the midst of life’s questions.

    For our first week, Pastor Dallas responded to the submitted question: "What the hell is going on? And am I allowed to ask that?" Pastor Dallas discusses the problem of evil and the call to love like God loves in Matthew 5:42-47.

  • What Did You Say?

    Jesus was known as a great teacher, but that doesn’t mean Jesus was always lecturing. Jesus was frequently asking questions. This week, we look at how to have spiritual conversations by being a safe place for questions. Not sure what to say; try asking questions.

  • Speak for Yourself

    What’s your story? Sometimes talking about God can feel too complex or technical, but a major part of spiritual conversations is sharing your own story. This week we read Psalm 107 and reflect on celebrating our various faith stories together.

  • Actions Speak Louder

    Sometimes great conversations are less about finding the right words to say and more about finding the right experiences to talk about. This week, we’re looking at Jesus’ response to major theological questions with an invitation to experience life together.

  • Talk It Up

    We can’t help but talk about the mundane things in life; how’s the weather? However, when we have spiritual focus, we can find that plenty meaning even in the mundane things of life. This week, we look to Paul for inspiration to use everyday experiences as the launching point for meaningful conversation.
