What is grace to you? On this Resurrection Sunday we take a look at the scope of God’s grace, made available through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The crowd that followed Jesus praised him loudly on what we call Palm Sunday. They had seen what Jesus had done and praised him for what they had seen. But they didn’t understand who he was or why he had really come. We do understand, and this message looks at what our response to Jesus should be.

In a world where faith discussion has become a debate of philosophy vs. philosophy, we as followers of Christ must embrace a fuller declaration of the Good News, through word AND deed, just as Christ himself demonstrated his message. This sermon examines the value of acts of service in the witness of the believer and the church, one component of the mission of making disciples.

Jesus commissioned us to “go”. Yet he made it clear that “going” did not just refer to crossing the ocean, it meant that we are to build bridges between us as messengers and the lost as receivers of the message. This sermon looks at some bridge building points, such as “Assessing Your Island”, “Assessing the Mainland”, and “Building the Bridge.”

As the impact of the Church in America declines, we have to be asking ourselves, “Why?” This sermon identifies fear as one of the primary reasons and discusses ten “Outreach Fear Slayers” that we have been given by God to carry out His mission.

Here’s the summary: God calls us into His mission of reaching the world with the Good News of Jesus Christ. Have you heard this call? It’s a call for all of Christ’s followers. This sermon looks at four sources of this call: God’s Word, God’s heart, God’s son, and God’s creation. How will we respond to this call?

Kicking off the Within My Reach series we focus on Kingdom Compassion based on Jesus's teaching in Matthew 25. This sermon is based on a teaching given by Efrem Smith.

Over the centuries God has never stopped communicating with His people. He wants us to know His plans for our lives. But His voice has moved from being powerfully obvious to a gentle whisper - a still, small voice. This sermon looks at what it takes to hear that voice and recognize when God is leading us in His will.

We all want to know God’s will for our lives. There are so many decisions that we have to make that we invite God to weigh in on. So what is His will for us? Or is there more to understanding God’s will than just the personal decisions we make in life? This sermon looks at God’s will from a perspective that includes His personal will for us, but also His providential will and His moral will.

Augustine said, "Love God, and do what you please." Following God's will is more than just God telling us what we should do but wanting what God wants and doing it.
