Melbourne Heights - Sermons

Every Sunday, we come together for a worship service. And the worship part makes sense...but what about the service? When most of us think about service, we think about eating at a restaurant or making a return at Walmart.

So what does service have to do with church? Well, believe it or not, the service part is every bit as important to the church as the worship part.

How many sermons have you sat through over the years? Dozens? Hundreds? And how many do you actually remember? If the answer feels a little embarrassing, you're not alone. But the problem might not be the sermons.

Each sermon gives us the chance to hear a word from God. And if we have the chance to hear from God, the question we need to ask is: Are we ready to listen?

Some people love to sing...but plenty of us feel like we can't carry a tune in a bucket. So it's a little strange that we're all invited to sing at church every week.

But singing in church isn't about putting on a performance or showing how talented you are. No, there's a much bigger reason why we sing in church that makes us all want to raise our voices, no matter how well we sing.

There are times when going to church feels meaningful. And there are times when it just feels like something you do. So why do we keep showing up?

Do we keep showing up just because it's a habit or because we have a job to do at church? Or, is there something deeper going on that we need to rediscover to help us understand why we worship?

Easter is supposed to be a time when we celebrate the good news of Jesus' resurrection...but that doesn't mean we actually feel like celebrating. There's a lot happening in our world right now, and there may be even more happening in your life.

But the story of Easter tells us that, even when we don't feel like celebrating, Jesus meets us where we are. Because Jesus is alive and he's with you no matter what.
