Sermons

Pastor Wayne brings the message, “Jesus and the Man Born Blind” from John 9.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “Confidence in the LORD” - Part 3. The previous sermon finished up our summer series in the Psalms.  The last two sermons were on prayer.  This sermon we spend our time in the book of John, chapter 14,  looking at how Jesus encouraged his disciples to pray.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “Confidence in the LORD” - Part 2.  Since Christians have the privilege of coming to God in prayer we should study the Psalms which include both helpful examples and rich theology concerning prayer.  Last week’s sermon from Psalm 20 taught us that we should trust in God because of who He is and seek His glory to be on display with our prayer requests.  This message shows how God answered David’s request and how focusing on the glory of God helps us with prayer.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “Confidence in the LORD.”  Fully trusting in the LORD, David went into battle after battle and faced giants greater than him.  His ultimate hope was not in military might but in “the name of the LORD our God” and God delivered David.  Are we supposed to pray Psalm 20?  And, if so, in what situations?

Pastor Nate brings the message, “God’s Creation, God’s Word, God’s People.”  Psalm 19 speaks of God’s creation and His Word.  Creation declares not only God’s existence, but also His glory.  God’s Word powerfully guides us through everyday life and declares Jesus as the one and only Savior.  The response to God, the creator and author of scripture should be humility and surrender at the deepest parts of who we are.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “Is God Enough for You?  When the trial delivers a major blow to your life is God enough for you?  We know the correct, Sunday-school answer to that question, but does our heart confidently answer, “Yes, God is enough!”  In Psalm 18 David leads us through various aspects of God’s nature that will bolster our faith for the coming week to endure through the trials and believe that God is enough.

Pastor Andy brings the message, “Vindication from the Lord” from Psalm 17.  When we walk in fellowship with God, we expect God’s favor to be on us.  But what happens when we find ourselves in fellowship with Him and experiencing difficulty?  Where do we turn?  Psalm 17 gives voice to the person caught in the storm of unjust treatment and points us to our supreme Advocate, God Himself.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “The Lord is My Chosen Portion” from Psalm 16.  There are several Biblical steps we can take when we find ourselves in fearful crises such as praying for deliverance or trusting in God’s sovereignty.  Or, as we see in Psalm 16, we can consider whether or not the greatest gift is still ours in the moment of crisis.  Psalm 16 will encourage us to see that when all seems to be in peril, we still have God.

Pastor Nate brings the message, “Fellowship with God” from Psalm 15.  How must we live to enjoy fellowship with God?  That’s the question that David asks in Psalm 15, and it’s not one of legalism.  It’s a question grounded in love for God.  Psalm 15 gives us an insight into regular disciplines we an pursue in order to enjoy our relationship with God.

Pastor Luke brings the message, “Rekindle Your Affection” from Revelation 2:1-7.  In the first of Jesus' letters to the churches in Revelation he commends and confronts the Ephesians. They cared deeply about theology and morality, but they had a deep deficiency -- they lacked love for Jesus. We too can be like the Ephesians, doing much for the sake of Jesus' name yet all the while having a heart that is cold toward him. As we come to this passage, it is our hope that Jesus would help us rekindle our affection for him.
