Wellspring Church Sermons

A light suddenly appeared in the sky. A light where there was once darkness. So brilliant, this light caused the magi to seek it's origin. Similarly, Christ is the light in a world that walks in darkness without Him. Are you seeking Him while He may be found? Is the light in your life leading others to the Savior? Are you crowning Him King?

How does God provide for His church and equip His people for times when it encounters and experiences growing pains? We continue this Sunday on our journey through the book of Acts, examining the truths from God's word and the compelling narratives of the fledgeling church.

When Jesus ascended, He gave the church the power to accomplish His will and His purpose. As times continue to grow darker, the need for God's Church to remain in Him remains constant. What is that power, and what can the Church accomplish through Him?

We continue with our journey through the book of Acts with a time together of prayer, a message from God's word, worship and glorifying God together. Invite a friend and join us for Sunday morning worship!

In an ever-darkening world, the light of Christ shines more brilliantly. While the darkness may be intimidating, God faithfully provides His people with power and confidence to not simply endure, but to overcome. But we need to know Jesus. We'll examine the power available to believers this Sunday and see how we can apply it in our lives.

Are you carrying the weight of past mistakes? Working through things that for whatever reason, you can't let go of? There's hope and healing for you in Christ Jesus. How does He do it, and how do we let go of our shame and hurt and embrace saving grace?

As the church began to grow, the apostles were given the ability to perform miracles. These sensational, Spirit-empowered acts were intended not just to impress the crowds, but to bring glory to God for the purpose of spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. How can God supernaturally work through you and your faith?

When we become Christians, the Holy Spirit empowers us in two ways. One is an ability to listen for and discern God's voice in the circumstances of our lives, and the second is the ability to be God's mouthpiece for messages He may have to others. But how do we recognize God's voice? How do we put that power to use?

A loud sound like a violent wind from heaven, tongues of fire and everyone hearing the Gospel in their own language! The first believers receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, and this Sunday, we'll see the amazing ways the Spirit works through the people and the church as a result.

Has God made you a promise during the course of your life? Remember what it was like when that promise was fulfilled? For many of us, maybe we're still waiting. In the meantime, what does God expect from us while we wait for His promises to come to fruition?

A new day is being birthed. A new era is beginning. Jesus ascended, leaving His disciples behind, but equipping them with the help of the promised Holy Spirit to begin the Church. The book of Acts contains the fulfillments of these incredible prophecies, and we'll look at a way the Holy Spirit operates among the believers like never before!

Whether you have a specific gifting of evangelism or not, sharing Jesus together means that the call of God is on each person in the Church to play a role in non-believers being able to effectively hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We'll look at examples from God's word how we can be ready and equipped to intentionally proclaim Christ to the world through our lives.

Our third core value at Wellspring is serving others together, the idea that God calls upon His people to share time, treasures and talent for the betterment of the Church and for His glory. In doing this, we demonstrate who Jesus is and what He does. Our freedom from the bondage of sin empowers us to accomplish this in His name. How is God leading you to serve Him and His people?

If you've ever endured tragedy, you know the importance of having someone mourn with you. You also know how uplifting it can be to have someone celebrate with you in times of victory. God designed the Church to be people who live with, support and provide for each other. We have several simple ways we can do that, and we'll talk about them when we gather on Sunday.

We begin our annual Core Values Series with a look at the purpose God has in designing His Church. We know that while God is everywhere, He is uniquely present when we, His people, get together to worship Him as one body. If you were curious about visiting Wellspring, or wanting to know more about what Wellspring is about, this is a great time to get to the heart of Wellspring, and that is Jesus Christ.

Sunday we welcome special guest speaker Reverend Bruce Huseby to deliver a look at Genesis 3, and the importance of knowing and seeking what is true. Bruce serves as Global Advisor for Crossover Global, a church planting organization that desires to see God glorified by providing gospel access through the planting of multiplying churches among unreached peoples.

You don't have to read far into God's word to find promises...they permeate scripture. Time after time we see God make, keep and fulfill promises. So what shakes our faith in the promises God makes? This Sunday we'll see why that happens and how God is worth of our trust.

We will encounter church leaders and teachers who claim and may have the outward appearance to be from God, and doing God's work. But what's real? What's true? Are you able to see through the smoke and mirrors to spot a wolf? We'll talk through some ways to spot these false teachers and listen to God's Spirit of truth.

God's desire for us is to pursue personal and practical holiness. Though we are righteous in God's eyes, we're still human, and prone to sin. While God is gracious, His word prescribes steps we as His children can take to live in right relationship with Him when we fail.

God designed His church to honor and obey Him, being His hands and feet on the earth. Part of this design are measures to care for and correct the church when issues of sin need to be addressed. This Sunday we'll see what He has set up and the reasons for it. Will we as the church humbly submit to Him?
