Acts 27:21-44
People tend to equate power with strength, status, or influence, but the Bible gives a different path. This message shows how a humble submission to God’s authority releases the transforming power of His grace in our lives.
1 Corinthians 4:14-21
We’re bombarded with messages about ambition, power, and success. And it’s tempting to try and fuse those values into the Christian life. This message looks at the humility that makes Jesus’ calling distinctive and what it means to embody it in our daily lives.
1 Corinthians 4:6-13
A recurring theme throughout the Bible is the question, "In the midst difficulties and struggles can I trust the Lord to provide for me and protect me?". In this message, we’ll discover that in the storms of life, which we all face, the Lord is a promise-keeping, covenant-keeping God.
Luke 8:22-25
In a world that preaches self-assurance, it’s easy to assume that we have all the answers. This message challenges that mindset, exploring the humility that’s needed to avoid self-deception.
1 Corinthians 3:18-4:5
We devote a big part of our lives to the jobs we have, the families we love, and the areas where we serve. While it’s tempting to evaluate our efforts by the world’s standards, the Bible reminds us that God will assess our contributions differently. This message explores how to pursue our work on a firmer foundation.
1 Corinthians 3:10-17
Whether it’s a preacher you listen to online or someone whose impact has been more personal, it’s easy to give credit to people for what God has done. This message looks at how to see God’s leaders rightly and how it stunts our growth when we don’t.
1 Corinthians 3:1-9
It can feel as if kids require more of us than we have to give. And when it does, our stress and anxiety gets passed on to our children. This message looks at how to approach parenting in a way that expresses trust in God and invites His help in our families.
Psalm 127:1-5
Does God truly accept me, even when I see sin and failings in my own life? 1 John 2 helps us find an anchor for our hope and a way of assessing the evidence of the new life God offers us in Christ.
1 John 2:1-6
Spiritual wisdom isn’t something you get with education or connections. It’s something that God is pleased to reveal to those who seek it. This message looks at how to receive the wisdom you need to live the life that you want.
1 Corinthians 2:6-16
Our world is dominated by the rich, powerful, and beautiful. It’s hard for regular people to not feel discouraged by their inadequacies. This message considers how God deliberately uses our weaknesses for His glory.
1 Corinthians 1:26-2:5
Are drums from the devil? Should hemlines end at the ankle? Is homeschooling the only godly option? This morning's text from Galatians 3 pits the false promises of legalism against the better promises of faith.
Galatians 3:1-6
Stephen Hawking was a brilliant thinker who was revered for his ideas, but he consistently rejected any notion of God. Is it foolish to believe in Jesus? If not, how should we understand it when intelligent people deny Him?
1 Corinthians 1:18-25
Christians can get sidetracked by preferences and personalities. When we do, the church becomes divided and ineffective. This message looks at how to pursue unity based on the cross.
1 Corinthians 1:10-17
The Corinthians were the most dysfunctional church that Paul served. And yet there was so much that he could give thanks for. His words remind us who we are, even on our worst days.
1 Corinthians 1:1-9
The Bible often speaks in terms of nations: national sin, national judgment, and national blessing. This, however, might be hard for many of us to think about or relate to in our modern, individualistic Western world. In this sermon, we explore Nahum's prophecy regarding the fall of ancient Assyria and encounter timeless biblical principles about how God interacts with nations as nations.
Nahum 1:1-15
To many, Christmas can evoke feelings of love, warmth, and belonging; but what about those who feel far from God because of their sin? “Have I gone too far?” This message reminds us that Christ’s birth is God’s answer to those who feel far from His love, as He welcomes them back with open arms.
Luke 15:11-24
Christmas can stir up worry and insecurity, driving us to fight for what we fear losing. This message looks at King Herod’s story and how God’s love can heal the fear that often fuels tension in our relationships.
Matthew 2:1-16
Sometimes, it can feel as if we’ve messed up too much to share in the hope Christmas brings. This message looks at Manasseh’s story and shows how God’s love can reach us when it feels like we’re beyond hope.
2 Chronicles 33:1-13
Christmas is a time when feelings of bitterness can strain family relationships and make get-togethers hard to face. This message reveals God’s surprising love for someone who struggled with anger – and how His love can transform ours too.
Genesis 4:1-16
