The World to Come

Today we are addressing a topic of much importance. We are talking about the world to come. We must acknowledge that this world is one day going to die, but there is a world to come that will never pass away. Jesus has called us to live as though this life is not all there is. So how are we to do that? Well's let's explore that together in the 4th sermon of our Church Responds series.

Spiritual Warfare

Is there a spiritual world or not? In the western world we all but entirely removed the idea from our minds. Even those that believe in one barely acknowledge it in their everyday lives. But as Christians it is of the utmost importance. For we are at war with a spiritual enemy, and if we do not understand, and if we do not learn how to wage the good warfare, to fight to good fight. We will find ourselves on the losing side.

Why The Nations Rage?

Nations and world powers act with impunity. They are unrestrained, able to do whatever they wish. But is that really true, is the king of the universe powerless before the world leaders? That is the question we will look at today, as we look for ways to find hope in this world and as we think through how to respond to the state of this world as a Christian. Follow me as explore Psalm 2 and see what is the truth behind who is really in control of this world.

Passage: Psalms 2

Jesus, Our Greatest Need

We feel like we are surrounded by evil in this world. We want someone who will defeat the wickedness around us. That person is Jesus. In this wicked world, we can be led to believe and hope in human inventions, in earthly means, but they will always fail us. We need God, we need Jesus, and we need to remember that he is our greatest need in the midst of this evil world. No one has been able to overcome the world, to defeat evil except for him, Jesus.

Love On Another

Jesus said they will know my disciples by their love for one another. Yet so often the church is seen as judgemental, gossipy, and unwelcoming. Today we will be exploring what it means to live out the command to love one another. How we are to persevere in pursuit of this goal, and to understand the power in the little acts of service we do each day.

Passage: John 15:12-17

Resurrection Sunday

What is life and death? Did Jesus come to save us from the grave? Is the life he came to give us, just to live for eternity? Today as we look at the resurrection we will explore these questions, and ask ourselves what was the great accomplishment of the resurrection, and is the grave really the death we should fear, or is there something greater.

Passage: Mark 16

Good Friday

What is the greatest exchange in history? Jesus, the perfect, innocent man was exchanged to a murder and a thief. Here we are shown the doctrine of the great exchange, where the perfect Son of God takes the place of sinners so they might take his place in God's presence.

We Need to be Humbled

Peter, leader of the early church, but what happened for him to be ready for such a position. First he had to humbled and right before Jesus death that is exactly what happens. We will all see our need to be humbled before the presence of God and understand that when we lean upon God even though we are weak we are strong.

Passage: Mark 14

Stay Awake

What is Abomination of Desolation? Will Christians be there during the great tribulation? So many different questions arise when we read through Mark 13. But here is what matters, Jesus wants us to stay awake. He wants us to be on guard. The purpose of the end times isn't for us to guess them, it is to be ready for the return of Jesus Christ. So that is what we will explore today, what should we be aware of, and how should we be ready?
