Reach Sermon Archive

This week on That's a REACH we answered three questions that range to three different topics. How to deal with unhealthy coping mechanisms, running from repentance, and why certain verses are sometimes left out of different versions of the Bible. We hope this conversation is uplifting!

One of the worst questions we face is whether or not we have actually been saved. The anxiety of not knowing can terrorize our thoughts. "What if I've missed something?" Thankfully,, God provided the book of 1 John as a clear way to understand what a true believer looks like. In this episode, Pastor Taylor Gabbert begins a series on the marks of Salvation in God's children with 1 John 1.

We know that we are supposed to be more Christlike. But we often think that being more Christlike is fully our responsibility. What we forget is that Christ sent us the Holy Spirit to teach us how to follow the Son. He leads us and shapes us to be like Christ. This week Pastor Taylor Gabbert discusses following the Holy Spirit in Genesis 24:1-67.

How do we walk with Jesus and live a life in the light and away from the darkness of sin? Scripture tells us exactly how to make Christ not just our savior but also our Lord. This week guest speaker, Pastor AJ Gonzalez walks us through 1 John 1 to help us know how being invested in the community that God has given us can help us walk in the light of Christ and live in freedom from sin.

We often have spiritual questions that we don't know how to answer. It can be difficult to find the right person to ask about our life struggles or theological inquiries. In this episode, Pastor Taylor Gabbert and Justin Schell take on your biblical questions for the second of two Q&A nights.

We often forget that we are not called to live in this life like we belong here. Christians are resident aliens in this world. When we remember that we can keep our eyes focused on our true home with Christ. This week Pastor Taylor Gabbert talks about our true homes in Genesis 23:1-20.

Last night we had our live Q&A time at REACH. We had so many questions come in that we could not get to (but will soon so don't worry!) Within in those questions, we found two that needed some extra time to be talked about. So we decided to record a special episode with guests Keeva O'Mealey and Pastor Philip Jackson to address these heavier topics: Dealing with regret, and suicide. We thought these two questions needed a more in depth answer and discussion rather than skimming over them in 2 minutes. There are a lot of great resources mentioned and we hope this conversation brings you hope in Jesus in a dark time.

Psalm 88

Philippians 4:8-9
