FALL RETREAT 2019 / Dan Reneau
Jeremiah 1:4-10
Pastor Dan Reneau of Living Faith Lee’s Summit was the guest speaker for the Fall Retreat 2019.
Set Us Free: A Character Study of Jonah 1:5
Jonah 1:4-5
This week we focus on the issues of finding security and stability by unbiblical means.
Jonah is often referred to as the “Missionary Prophet” and yet his thought life was so out of sync with God’s will that he rebels at every turn. In his best moments, he is reluctant and in his worst moments he is faithless, consumed by his emotions, obsessed with his circumstances, and full of fear. As a ministry of missions-minded young people, how do we avoid falling prey to a thought life that hinders fellowship with God and stunts fruitfulness in our lives?
A Biblical Perspective of Work / Jeff Grasher
Proverbs 24:3-4
High School Pastor, Jeff Grasher, preaches on the biblical perspective of work.

Set Us Free: A Character Study of Jonah 1:1-3
Jonah 1:1-3
This week we learn how an unbiblical thought life produces selfishness and a tendency to escape or isolate when God is asking us to grow.

Another Dimension / Seth Harper
Ephesians 3:14-21
In today’s message, we examine Ephesians 3 to learn the breadth, length, depth and height of the love of Christ.
The Birth of Missions: Acts 13 / James Fyffe
Acts 13:1-3
James Fyffe breaks down the practicalities of our mission as The Church by diving into the lives of Barnabas and Saul.
The Acts of the Apostles: God's Work of Deliverance
Acts 12:1-11
Many of us have a false narrative in our minds about what it means to be the child of God. Being a Christian does not guarantee us an easy life, in facts it’s a warrant for suffering. In Acts 12 we find the apostle James murdered and we see Peter delivered from a prison cell. How does God deliver? Who does God deliver? Why does God deliver? How can we learn to trust him regardless?
Fatherlessness / Eric Phillips
Jeremiah 9:23-24
In today’s message, we examine the consequences of Spiritual Fatherlessness.
The Acts of the Apostles: The Model Church pt. 2
Acts 11:19-30
Part 2 of “The Model Church” further explores the qualities of the church of Antioch. What made them such a fruitful church? How can we as a church and ministry owning our faith and development the same way they did?
The Acts of the Apostles: The Model Church pt.1
Acts 11:1-30
Acts 11 introduces us to the model New Testament church. We begin a study of the Church of Antioch, a church the broke from cultural Christianity for the sake of the gospel. In Acts 11 we investigate the character of the Antioch leaders, their purposes in ministry and how God used this church to start the first true missions movement.
The Acts of the Apostles: The Gospel Open to the World pt.2
Acts 10:43-48
As we conclude our study of Peter and Cornelius, we discover several more principles dealing with the character of a gospel messenger. We also gain some key doctrinal insight on how God presents salvation moving forward in scripture.
Begat Blessings / Billy Wood
Matthew 1:1-17
In today's message, we look into the reasons why God chose to include several women from the Old Testament in the genealogy of Jesus Christ in Matthew 1.
The Acts of the Apostles: The Gospel Open to the World pt. 1
Acts 10:32-43
Peter has come to Cornelius and a crowd of Greeks who are anxiously awaiting a spiritual word. Peter shares the heart of God concerning humanity and presents the gospel in a powerful way. In this passage we learn many different principles as well as celebrate the simplicity of the gospel message.
The Father's Heart / Uriah Guenther
1 Corinthians 4:15, Luke 1:17
In today’s message, we analyze the difference between father’s and instructor’s. Uriah explains that the role of a father is a state of permanence
Clocked In / Kendal Anderson
Luke 17:5-10
In today’s message, Kendal explains what it means to be a servant of Christ and whether we “clock in” or “clock out” in our service to God.
The Acts of the Apostles: From Perplexity to Purpose
Acts 10:11-23
Todays message revisits Peter's vision but discusses it in terms of hearing from God. When God speaks, how do we know we are hearing from God and not some other source, such as our emotions or personal will? How are our perplexities and doubts converted into faithful and purposed obedience?
The Acts of the Apostles: New Fields, New Fears
Acts 10:7-22
Every Christian who has ever been called into deeper faith has struggled with doubt. The Apostle Peter wrestled with his fears just like we do - until he allowed God's simple words to change his heart and mind. Acts 10 teaches us how to hear God calling us out of our fear and into his perfect will.
Every Christian who has ever been called to "more", called to go deep in their walk, has struggled with doubt. The Apostle Peter had them too and he didn't know what to do with them until he allowed God's simple words change his heart and mind. Acts 10 teaches us how to hear God call us out of our fear in order to see his will from his perspective.
The Acts of the Apostles: A Truer Purpose
Acts 10:1-8
In this sermon we are introduced to the mighty and meek Roman Centurion Cornelius. From all external and internal appearances he was a man who had everything, that is besides the one thing that would make him complete - - - to know Jesus Christ. God sends Peter in response to Cornelius's prayers; who or what has God put in your life to draw you to him? Will you resist or receive his answer to your prayers?
The Principle of Being Predetermined / Alex Allen
Daniel 3:18
In this message, Alex explains what it means to be “Predetermined” in your walk with Jesus Christ. By walking through different examples in the Bible, it is clear that we must purpose in our hearts to choose Christ over self, else we will fail in moments of temptation.
