Our struggle for control over every area of our life causes us to be controlling about our walk with God. Instead of allowing God to guide our steps, we’re prone to set boundaries around God in our effort to control Him. Do you realize how feeble that truly sounds, that we could somehow control and subdue God! That we could limit God access and keep Him away from certain parts of our life. Yet God is patient with us. We need to surrender our control in order to mature our faith!

April 7, 2024 We don’t like the idea of surrender. Surrender means that we give up, we quit, we’re throwing in the towel. Surrender is always associated with loss! We don’t like the idea of surrender because it means that we’re yielding, it means that bowing to someone else! In order for our faith to grow stronger, we actually need to learn that there is power through surrender. A big part of growing our faith requires surrender; especially when it comes to surrendering our will.

Easter Sunday, 2024! 

The question I want you to consider this morning is this: Has Jesus won your heart? I don’t mean this in a casual sense, I mean, has Jesus truly won your affection, have you given yourself fully to Him or have you ever felt stuck in your faith, wondering if you’re made for more! Whether believer or unbeliever, what has been holding you back from fully giving your heart to Jesus?

We’ve all had the thought, “that’s not how I would do things”; even in our faith. It’s not unusual to bring into question what God is doing, as we assume we have a better understanding of our situation than God. We believe that we have a clear idea of how God should respond in our situation, in our world, and in the lives of others. All of us have had moments in our faith journey where we thought; “that’s not how I would have done things.” This kind of thinking becomes challenging to our faith, because we’re not allowing God to be God as we presume to know better.

March 17, 2024 Crisis causes us to take our eyes off God. We doubt His love for us, His plans for us, and His power. In our deepest moments of worry over our present situation, we lose sight of God, we forget His goodness, and we lack the vision to see what or how He is working in our situation. We’re going to read the story of a pappa bear named Jairus, a man who will go to great lengths for his daughter who is sick and near death.Scriptures we dive into today: Romans 8:10-11; Romans 8:26-28; Luke 8:40-42; Luke 8:49-56; Isaiah 41:10

I’m quick to think of Jesus as my savior; He paid the debt and penalty for my sin. Yet, I forget about the power and authority of Jesus! In our journey of faith, it’s important for us to have a picture of the nature and character of Christ that’s complete. The best picture of His authority is in the Resurrection. We’re starting a new series this morning called, Resurrected.

One of the great identity equalizers in life is the hospital gown. Whether you are rich or poor young or old, the hospital gown won’t discriminate, it seeks to make everyone uncomfortable. You can be sure of two things in a hospital gown – one you will always look ridiculous and two, no matter where you sit down, there will always be a cold spot. The hospital gown means there could be something wrong with you, it represents that you are not as strong or well as you thought you were. We struggle to navigating the unknowns of illness because part of our identity is being taken.

February 25, 2024 Depression pulls us down, causing us to sink into the depths of our own despair. It feels like we just keep getting dragged deeper into our own hopelessness. Like a kid dragging a beach ball to the bottom of the pool and releasing it to breach the surface, your faith is meant to bring you back to the surface when depression tries to drag you under.

The second in our series “Joy in the Mourning” covers navigating anxiety and fear. We look at how the biblical greats, including Jesus himself, navigated the all-too-human emotion of fear. We’ll follow the journey of Moses from alienated anxiety to a confident faith through his strange and beautiful journey. Then we’ll look at how to navigate anxiety in our lives like these heroes of the faith who were no strangers to fear.
