Storefront Church

Today's message is on prayer, but we’re not going to discuss how to hold your hands, or delve into formula of the Lord's Prayer. We're going to talk about the "guts of prayer," where prayer puts gravel in your belly and strengthen you as you pray "in the Valley. "

Psalm 84 isn't a story self-reliance. To move "from strength to strength” is to move from one degree of dependence on God to another.

A key component to spiritual health?  Knowing where you would long to be, in order to determine where you're actually at. The psalmist's acknowledgement in Psalm 84:1-4 that he longs for the "courts of the Lord" is a confession of how far away he actually is from the living God.

According to Acts 2, "Christian Community" is so radical and so reasonable that it causes everyone to reflect and repent.

People respond to the Spirit of God in one of three ways; worship, curiosity, or ridicule. Let’s ask the question that’s asked here, “What does Pentecost mean?”

"Church Hurt" is very real and nothing new. Today in Acts 1 we see the leadership of the early church gather on the heals of their own church hurt experience, and there is a much that we can learn. We hope this is helpful.

In the book of Acts, we see that Jesus calls the early church to be His confident, credible, and commissioned witnesses. Pastor David Plant walks us through what this means for us.

We often hear people talk about Jesus' coming to earth, but they rarely mention the reason John the Apostle gives in his first letter: "The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil" (1 John 3:8).  But what exactly are these "works of the devil"? Satan tempts us morally, deceives us intellectually, inflicts harm physically, and blinds people spiritually. There is nothing sentimental about Christmas.

Pastor David leads us through an Advent teaching on Matthew 2:1-12. We learn that one of the reasons Jesus came to earth was to reveal to us the Father that we cannot see.

Pastor David leads us through the encounters of Joseph leading up to the Christmas story. The angel tells Joseph, "do not be afraid" and we can learn that God has come so that you might have a reason to believe and be brave, and God has come in order to take away our sins.
