Why does God not heal His people when they call on His name? This is surely the question in John's mind when he he asks Jesus "Are You The One?" And why wouldn't Jesus deliver John of all people? Instead John remains in prison and dies a horrible death. These are the hardest of questions but we can begin to unravel the "why" in Matthew 11. We pray you'll be encouraged by this sermon from Matthew 11 as we continue our sermon series "Prepare The Way".

Two Mothers, begin a conversation and one of the babies "leapt for joy". This was a supernatural moment. One of these babies was who would be "John the Baptist". The other was Christ himself. So tiny in His mothers womb, maybe just an inch long. But these women, filled with the Spirit, knew exactly what was happening, and the significance of these two children not yet born. We pray you'll be encouraged by this sermon from Luke 1:39-45. We celebrate the first Sunday of Advent this week as we start a new series.

God breaks His 400 year silence with, of all things, a birth announcement? This, however, is no ordinary baby. He was born to prepare the way for the Lord as the prophet Isaiah foretold. But this story is actually about Zachariah, his father. We find an incredibly encouraging message 2000 years later buried just under the surface of this story! We pray you'll be encouraged by this sermon from Luke 1:5-25. We celebrate the first Sunday of Advent this week as we start a new series.

Many of us have fathers who have abandoned, or abused us, and we have trouble relating to God as our Father. Many of us have mothers who never gave us love or affirmation and so it may be hard to hear Paul's words in Galations 4 that the church is our mother. Especially when so many of us have been hurt by the church in addition to all this. But what Paul is talking about here is not what you may have experienced. It's a beautiful picture of what God wants the church to be. Follow us on our journey to know and love God and to be transformed to be more like Him.

The spiritual realm. An invisible evil. The spiritual dimension. We have a hard time with these things don't we? Its easier to just live in the dimension you can see and explain away everything as coincidence, chance, or luck right? But God has placed us on the front lines of a battle that is fought in a dimension we can't see, with weapons that seem powerless to us, with eternal consequences. And we better be ready.

Kill the Dragon, Get the Girl, Rule the World. That's how some would describe the story of the Bible. Except in the real story, the bride was seduced by the Dragon and he ruined her, she drifted, became homeless and broken. She became a harlot and gave herself over and over to lovers who hated her. She wouldn't listen to the bridegroom, or perhaps she just couldn't imagine a love so great for a bride like her could be true. But it is!!

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 12 we look at the kind of diversity and complexity that God intends for His Church. Paul uses this "body" analogy in a different way than it was being used by the Roman Empire to totally upend the status quo of thinking about class structure, power, and influence.

How can I not be controlled by your past? How can I let go? Maybe you think you don't need to? How can I let go of what I don't even realize I'm holding on to? How do I forgive? The story of Joseph losing his father Jacob gives us a new perspective on these questions. We pray you'll be encouraged by this sermon on forgiveness from Genesis 50 If you enjoy our content please like this video and consider subscribing to our channel.

In Matthew 18 Jesus is talking to a man looking for answers about forgiveness. Jesus sees that his heart is actually unwilling to forgive. Forgiveness is hard isn't it? But it's time to let go. You're not punishing the person who hurt you by your unforgiveness. You're only hurting yourself. We pray you'll find that forgiveness will transform every aspect of your life! And that you'll find your identity in the one who has forgiven you and not by what evil that's been done to you.

In this Sermon about forgiveness we look again at Luke 15, the story of the prodigal son. This story is full of wisdom, and one of the things God is trying to tell us is, that forgiveness is not a soft option. It is an obligation of grace that God has shown us. We see ourselves a certain way but the Father sees us differently. We pray you'll, not only be encouraged by this sermon about forgiveness, but that you'll resolve to forgive those who have wronged you.

In this Sermon about forgiveness we look at Luke 15, the story of the prodigal son. Are you waiting for others to apologize to you? Are you waiting until justice is done and they get exactly what they deserve? Are you waiting until you think you've punished them long enough and made your point? This passage shows us that we are the ones who need forgiveness and our unwillingness to forgive you're simply making payments on their unconcealed debts. There is so much to forgive and so much to be forgiven, so what are you waiting for? If you enjoy our content please like this video and consider subscribing to our channel.

A place where victimhood is a virtue, and atonement is demanded. But forgiveness is never given. Our culture despises forgiveness because it places the burden on the victim. Jesus comes on the scene and talks about forgiveness in a way that's so radical and contrary to His culture, and just as contrary to ours. Soften your heart and listen carefully to the words of Jesus in this sermon on Mark 2. We pray this message challenges you to forgive radically like Jesus.

Like God has forgotten you? Like you’re all alone in your grief? Like you’re truly hopeless? The psalmist in Psalm 88 has felt your pain, your loneliness, & and your sorrow. Even Michael Stipe from the 90s pop/rock band R.E.M. knows “everybody hurts … sometimes”. Suffering and hurt is universal in this life. But what does this have do do with Jesus? And isn’t this story supposed to have a happy ending? Well it does, but we have to dig a little deeper into this psalm to find it. Join on the hunt for the treasure buried just under the surface in this passage. We pray this sermon on psalm 88 is a comfort to you in your pain, and in your sorrow.
