Nampa First Church of the Nazarene Sermons

Pastor Brian challenges us that true revival begins not when we see everyone else's faults clearly, but when we examine ourselves and learn to love. Are you holding a magnifying glass pointed at others, or are you willing to pick up the mirror?

Join us as our kids and youth share what they discovered about God at VBS this past week!

In this week's sermon, Pastor Brian reminds us that the painful experiences in our lives—the betrayals, the wounds, the disappointments—are bricks we can choose to build into walls, wield as weapons, or lay down as an altar before God. What bricks have you been carrying, and what have you been building with them? #DearChurch #GraceBuildsAltars #Faith

God meets us in paradise AND in our pain. 🙌 Your thorn doesn't disqualify you — it's where Christ shows up most. What thorn are you trusting God with today?

Pastor Libby reminds us that true wisdom from above doesn't seek to win arguments—it sows peace and reaps a harvest of righteousness. When conflict creeps into your everyday moments, are you reaching for earthly wisdom or heavenly wisdom? 

Pastor Libby reminds us that our words carry the power to heal or harm, build up or tear down—and that the real issue isn't our tongue, but our heart. What's one area of your life where you want to speak more grace and less criticism?

Pastor Brian reminds us that true Christian discipleship isn't about climbing the ladder of success or looking like we have it all together — it's about trusting God enough to get in the basket, letting God's grace carry us when we're weak. Have you ever felt exhausted from pretending to be a "Super Apostle" when deep down you knew you needed help? 

Pastor Bud reminds us that before we are servants, shepherds, or stewards, we are first beloved sons and daughters of God — and that identity changes everything. What would shift in your daily life if you truly lived from that place of being deeply loved by God?

Pastor Brian reminds us that the most liberating moment comes when we stop arguing with the accusation "you're not enough" and realize the gospel was never built on us being sufficient. What weapons do you reach for when you feel attacked—worldly ones like gossip and defensiveness, or godly ones like prayer and forgiveness? Let's choose to fight with the weapons that build up rather than tear down. #Faith #Gospel #ChristIsEnough

Ever wondered why some blessings feel meant to keep while others seem meant to share? Pastor Brian unpacks Paul's powerful metaphor of bread and seeds—showing us how to discern what God gives us to consume versus what He gives us to multiply. Through 2 Corinthians 9, discover why faithful stewardship isn't about giving everything away OR keeping it all, but about wisdom in knowing the difference. One takeaway: This week, pray and ask God about one resource in your life—"What did You intend this to become?" Ready to live with open hands and faithful hearts? Hit play and let's grow together!
