Experiencing the Holiness of God | Isaiah 6
In Isaiah 6, God’s prophet Isaiah sees an astonishing vision of heaven and God’s magnificence. When Isaiah encounters the Lord, he cannot help but see his own sin and weakness – his faults fully exposed. It is no different for us today.
In God’s presence, there is no room for comparison or way to hide… but even where sin is great, grace is greater still!
Pastor James has a special message leading into and out of this weekend teaching – join us as we encounter God in His Word and turn to Him in repentance and faith.
Everyday Joy Through Contentment | Philippians 4
The Apostle Paul was a follower of Jesus who suffered through imprisonment, hunger and persecution. Amazingly, despite those trials he declared, “I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.”
When we rejoice in what God has provided, we will not become overwhelmed by what we don’t have.
This Thanksgiving weekend, let’s be thankful for God’s goodness and content in what He has provided. Join us in Philippians 4 as learn “Everyday Joy Through Contentment”!
How To Remember The Lord | Various Scriptures
Don’t Shrink God | Ephesians 3
When God is big, problems are small… but when problems are big, God is small.
Struggles may weigh us down and our burdens may overwhelm, but God is never maxed out or too busy. He is always able to work abundantly, and deal with our trials in far more powerful ways than we could ask or imagine.
Get ready for “Don’t Shrink God!” in Ephesians 3 – He is greater than our problems!
One On One With Jesus | 1 Corinthians 3
Here’s an awesome truth: one day you will stand face to face with Jesus Christ.
In life, you build with the talents and time God has given you – but no one knows what you’re actually building until the judgment, when God will reveal our work for Him.
Knowing that God alone sees and will judge how we are living, let’s give our days to constructing lives that matter for eternity.
Lean into 1 Corinthians 3 to prepare for your “One on One with Jesus.”
Instilling Hope as we Help Others | John 6
When Jesus healed a man who was disabled from birth, the Lord gave him an even greater gift – HOPE – and it transformed his life for all eternity.
Originally preached at a biblical counseling conference, this week’s teaching in John 5 will help you find life-giving hope too – and practical ways to share it with those who are lost and hurting.
What Happened Here? | Mark 6
When we are more concerned about looking good than doing good – more concerned about position than purity, we’re going over the cliff.
Getting distracted is easy… we don’t intend a wrong turn down a path of sin. We must beware of trivializing spiritual truth, excusing sin, ignoring alarms, and become our brothers’ keeper.
Watch this intro from Pastor James, and turn your Bible to Mark 6. Let’s learn what’s really happening, while we can…
Much More Salvation | Romans 5
How to Live By Faith | Nahum 1:7
A secret for my Christian walk has been Nahum 1:7: “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.” It is difficult to walk with God by faith… and when it’s hardest to believe, we need to stop riding the roller coaster of “right now.” Even if you cannot see it, you can stand on the goodness of God. Get ready to embrace this truth with all your heart: God’s goodness is the soil faith grows in!
