1 Samuel 22:1-2

In order to live as mighty men, we must go from debtors in sin to debtors of the gospel message. 

John 2:12 / Jesus and his disciples are invited to a marriage feast in Cana of Galilee, but when the wedding party runs out of wine, Jesus’s mother requests that he do something miraculous. In the first public miracle of Jesus we learn about faith, expectation and what it means to always be ready to obey Christ.

Proverbs 27:7

John 1:43-50 / Jesus is beginning to gather disciples to follow him and learn from him. Philip of Bethsaida begins following Jesus and in his zeal goes to find his friend Nathanael to share that he had found the Messiah, but Nathanael is resistant. Like many of our friends and family, Nathanael holds a bias that becomes an impediment to the gospel. In this sermon we learn how to reach those who seem to be hindered in their view of Jesus.

John 1:29-42 / As we continue in our story, John the Baptist reveals Messiah and points his disciples to Jesus. As those disciples spend time with Jesus, it produces a desire to invite others to experience the goodness of Christ as well. This portion of the Gospel of John provides us with incredible insight into what it means to have a personal relationship with Christ and to understand ministry the way God intended.

John 1:14-28 / Do you know who you are and what you have been made for? Many Christians don’t. The purpose of our Christian faith is often clouded by our culture, pragmatism, elitism, politics, entertainment and other distractions that only serve to make us tepid and ineffectual. In this sermon, John the Baptist serves as an example of what it means to know what we’ve made for and unabashedly embrace our cause.

John 1:1-13 / Of the four gospels, John most clearly magnifies that divine attributes of Jesus. The opening of this gospel declares Jesus as God, but more than that, it defines what that means in terms of humanities relationship to him. Join us as we begin this wonderful journey through the Gospel of John.

Brotherly Love / 1 John 2:8-11

In today’s message, we will cover some hindrances in our brotherly love, and then clearly see how Jesus Christ is the best brother a man could have.

Acts 5:1-11

Ephesians 6:18-24 /In our last sermon on Finding Our Identity, Paul closes his letter to Ephesus by calling them to prayer. In this study we look at the discipline of prayer and discuss it as a necessity of spiritual warfare. We also look at the value and importance of a ministry that delegates in order to meet the needs of the church.

Ephesians 6:16-17 / Are we preparing for evil days, trials and difficulty by actively putting on the whole armor of God? In the last sermon we looked at the first three elements in the divine armor of God, this week we look at three more. Join us as we consider what it means to find our identity as a soldier engaged in a spiritual warfare.

Ephesians 6:14-15 / Each of us face “evil days” in our lives, moments where we are frustrated with our circumstances, afraid and tempted to despair. As Christians, do we know how to remain resolved and emotionally strong in those seasons of life? Do we acknowledge the nature of our enemy’s warfare? Are we actively preparing by putting on the whole armor of God?

Ephesians 6:11-13 / We have an enemy who actively seeks our deception, distraction and destruction. He hates us with a passion and his influence and power is greater and more extensive than we can imagine. Do we know who he is? Do we know how to prepare ? Are we battle ready?

Ephesians 6:10 / We have learned so much from Ephesians about our identity, but as we reach the closing admonition we learn a hard truth - that we must be fearless in the face of difficulty. Hard ship is common to all people, but the way in which Christians endure life’s challenges should be unique. Today we consider, what does it mean to fight life’s battles in the courage of Christ?

2 Corinthins 10:3-6
Today we will look at 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 which has the keys to engaging effectively in spiritual warfare through prayer.
