    Keep The Light Burning Youth Sermon

     | 467 views

    It's important to keep our light shining for Christ, even when we face challenges. This can be achieved through community, stepping out of our comfort zone, and allowing the Holy Spirit to convict us.

    First off, we can't do life alone. We need our squad, our friends, our community. Remember when the Holy Spirit showed up at Pentecost? All the believers were hanging out together, and boom! The Holy Spirit showed up big time. When we've got a crew that loves us and loves God, people notice. When ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 330 views

    Jesus, though sinless, was associated with criminals to demonstrate His love for us and to show that He understands our lowest moments. Despite this, He was exalted by God and given the greatest name above all names.

    Hey guys! Hope you're all doing great. Today, we're going to talk about something pretty wild. You know how in movies, the hero is always the good guy, right? Well, in the greatest story ever told, our hero, Jesus, was actually counted among the bad guys. Crazy, huh? This comes from Isaiah 53, a ...read more

     | 521 views

    God's grace is for everyone and it can sometimes offend us instead of inspiring us.

    Today we're going to dive into a cool story Jesus told about a boss and his workers. It's all about how God's grace can sometimes surprise us, and not always in the way we expect. So, picture this: A boss hires workers for his vineyard at different times of the day. Some start early in the morning, ...read more

    The Power Of Connecting With God Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Jan 23, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,110 views

    Just like Jesus, we need to establish a divine rhythm in our lives that includes rest, prayer, and reconnection with God. This connection empowers us to fulfill our purpose and calling.

    Hey guys, ever watched a surfer ride the waves? It's pretty cool, right? They seem to have this rhythm with the ocean, knowing when to stand up, when to ride, and when to bail. It's like they're connected to the ocean. Well, Jesus had a similar connection, but His was with God. And guess what? We ...read more

    This is the high point of God’s redemptive plan. Paul stated

    INTRODUCTION The most significant event that ever happened in this world is the event when God came into the world. God the Son entered the world to provide salvation for all who believe. This is the high point of God’s redemptive plan. Paul stated in Galatians 4:4-5 4But when the set time had ...read more

    Blessings And Curses

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 8, 2024
     | 84 views

    Jesus, true God and true man, took on the curse of the cross and the grace He won saves you from the curse of the Law. Don’t try to add on to your faith by the Law, because you’ll just bring the curse of the Law back on yourselves.

    Friday of the 27th week in Course 2024 We should begin any homily on the Letter to the Galatians with a reminder that this church in Asia Minor was in a kind of turmoil because of some itinerant Jewish Christian preachers. These folks came to town after St. Paul taught them the basics of Christian ...read more

    Blinded By Seeing - Israel's Missing Messiah

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Feb 22, 2024
     | 509 views

    Before Jesus' time, rabbis separated miracles into two categories, those anyone empowered by the Holy Spirit could perform and miracles called ‘messianic miracles’ the only the Messiah could perform these. Jesus demonstrated He was the Messiah using the Sanhedrin's own theology and teaching.

    BLINDED BY SEEING - ISRAEL’S MISSING MESSIAH HOW MUCH SIGHT LEAVES YOU BLIND? Sometime before the coming of Jesus, rabbis separated miracles into two categories. First were those miracles anyone would be able to perform if they were empowered by the Spirit of God to do so. The second category of ...read more

     | 1,745 views

    We often delay seeking Christ's help until desperation drives us to Him. He stands ready to deliver us when we come to Him confessing our need for Him to touch us.

    “When [Jesus] came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him. And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.’ And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, ‘I will; be clean.’ And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.” ...read more

    The sermon will explore the true meaning, source, and purpose of eternal life as a gift from God, based on the passage from John 17:1-11.

    Good morning, family! Today, we are going to explore a beautiful passage from the Gospel of John - diving deep into Jesus' heart for us as He prays to the Father. We'll be looking at what eternal life truly means, where it comes from, and why it has been given to us. As A.W. Tozer once wrote, "The ...read more

    The Re-Creation Story Premium Sermon

    Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 482 views

    The sermon explores the concept of re-creation through the story of the empty tomb in John's gospel, emphasizing how the Risen Christ's love for us offers a chance for resurrection and transformation.

    The story of the empty tomb in John’s gospel is one of re-creation with hints back to Genesis and John 1. The Risen Christ sees Mary just as she is and loves her. The Risen Jesus sees all of us, too, just as we are and offers to re-create us with resurrection life. This is the fulfillment of God ...read more

    Set Free From Shame Premium Sermon

    Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 586 views

    The sermon explores the transformative encounter of the Samaritan woman with Jesus, illustrating God's intent to save rather than condemn, and the possibility of turning guilt and shame into healing and belonging through God's grace.

    The story of the Samaritan woman perfectly illustrates how God sent Jesus not to condemn the world but to save the world through him. Jesus humbles himself, engages the woman in conversation, and sets her free from shame and guilt. She arrives at the well as a sinner, but leaves as a saint. ...read more

     | 650 views

    The sermon explores the journey of a blind man healed by Jesus, emphasizing the importance of experiencing God's love and walking with Him, rather than just knowing about Him like the Pharisees.

    We are all on a journey of discovery when it comes to knowing God and his core nature of self-giving love which is revealed in Christ. On a scale of “1 to Infinity,” I am probably a solid seven! I have a long way to go. But that’s okay, because God is never in a hurry. He meets us right where we ...read more
