The shepherds in the fields are told to goto Bethlehem and see the newborn Jesus. They respond with "let us go." These words are a call to action, obedience, and freedom. They receive good news and are driven to action to experience the Joy of the coming of the Messiah.

The First Noel tells the story just after Jesus is born. God first shares with a shepherds that a Messiah has been born in the town of Bethlehem. This happens of hundreds of years of silence by God to his people. The silence is broken with a series of what Pastor Matt calls "whispers". Learn more about the whispers God speaks into the silence in this message.

The conclusion of the series, surrounds a beautiful poem found in the middle of chapter two of Philippians. Paul shares the attributes of Jesus and reminds us that we are to find out identity in only Jesus. He is our King and we are citizens of the Kingdom of God

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength" has become a popular rally cry. But, do we understand the context by which Paul shared this famous verse? This week Pastor Matt explores the context of this verse in seeking its true meaning.

Paul's instruction to the community of believers is to seek unity with a purpose. He wants the church to live a mission focused life and discard all that creates disunity. It is because of Jesus that we are called to seek unity at all costs. God sought unity with us through Jesus and in the Holy Spirit.

Prayer is a gift from God that allows us to communicate with our heavenly Father. Paul encourages the church to pray always and let the products of prayer show. In this message we pray through through the model prayer that Jesus gave to his disciples.

Paul shares words of wisdom in chapter 3 of his letter to Philipi. He urges the church to be weary of those who insist the work of Jesus is incomplete and the old covenant must be maintained. He urges us to truly know Jesus and exactly what it means to be alone in Jesus.

As Paul prays for the church in Philippi, he does so from a position of joy. He longs for the church to grow and the believers to carry the attitude of Jesus in their development.

In the conclusion of this series, we explore John 8 and the freedom it promises. Freedom that is only found in Jesus. It is the hope of all experiencing this freedom that has driven the upcoming launch of Celebrate Recovery. They people may experience the truth that sets each of us free.
