New Hope Sermons

This message looks at a promising young man, Saul, who before discovering his great purpose in life is sent on a "Donkey Mission" that leaves him thinking, "What's the point?!"

This message will help us understand the point behind the mundane processes in our life and find greater purpose.

We are called to be ambassadors for Jesus. Many people are intimidated by the idea of sharing their faith with non-Christians, but evangelism doesn't have to be scary or difficult.

In this message Pastor Diehl lays out three practical, and positive, ways to share our faith.

When Jesus left, he sent the Holy Spirit to give us power. Power for what? Power to be witnesses! This message will look at four groups of people we are called to be witnesses to.

When we know our purpose is outside of ourselves - we will be filled up when we pour out.

People are so consumed with “self”; when all we are living for is ourselves and our wants and needs and desires, we will run low on oil really quickly.

Only when you invest your time, talent, and treasure will your realize how full you can really be.

Today we continue our series on "Oil Reserves". In Scripture, oil represents the Holy Spirit and the spiritual life that God gives us.

Pastor Diehl shows us 6 types of people in our lives who have oil and can help us get some for ourselves.

Remember, we don't get oil from others...But others who have oil know where we can find some!

Many times Christians make the mistake of thinking that participating in Sunday services is enough for a strong devotional life.

However, just like our bodies would be weak if we only fed them every 7 days, our spirits need daily nourishment to keep our "oil reserves" full.

In this message, Pastor Todd lays out three primary methods to make sure that our private devotional lives fill our reserves.

We all have our own “leaks” of our oil reserves. 3+ hours of screens, Netflix, podcasts, scrolling, video games, Youtube videos, social media, smartphone games, news programs… you’re gonna run out of oil if you’re spending over 20 hours a week there but only filling up with oil once a week at church.

In this message, Pastor Diehl discusses those and other leaks, and shows us how we can stop those leaks so we stay filled.

This sermon explores the Parable of the Ten Virgins, found in Matthew 25. In this parable, Jesus warns us about being "ready" for His return. But what does it mean to be ready? And how can we know when it's time to begin getting ready?

We'll also address some common misconceptions about what it means to be "ready" for Christ's return. Finally, we'll answer two key questions: What is oil and why do we need oil? And how do we get our own supply of oil?

Pastor Adam shares a message from our Encounter Night September 11, 2022.

Some things just go together. Some things are fine on their own, but when they partner together something simply amazing happens. In this message, Pastor Adam shares how Israel partnered together with God and each other to cross the Jordan in Joshua 3 and 4.
