Sermons on God Driven:

Doubting God’s Provision

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Mar 19, 2017

Like the Israelites of old, we are quick to complain and grumble and quarrel, and our fight really is with God, doubting his provision, forgetting what he has done for us in the past. But God is present and at work if we will only trust him.

Exodus 17:1-7 Doubting God’s Provision Do you wake up grumpy in the morning? No, just let him sleep! (That’s an old joke.) I went to the dentist this week, and I heard a patient in the cubicle next to me grumbling about the fee. She said, “Two hundred bucks for one tooth extraction! And it’s only ...read more

God’s Calling for Believers After last week’s Sunday night message and again this morning, I think it’s important to lay out how we’re to go about fulfilling the third dimension, the dimension of commission.

God’s Unconventional Reach

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 14, 2019

Jesus shares three stories to show how much every person matters to God. Jesus calls us to repent and return to him, love people he loves, and celebrate with heaven when lost people are found.

Luke 15:1-10 God’s Unconventional Reach Have you ever lost anything? It’s really irritating, isn’t it? Losing car keys, losing your wallet, losing your cell phone. They make devices to ping all these things, but I’m sure I would probably lose that, too! Luke chapter 15 is all about lost things, ...read more

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018

Saints the Lord has called each of us to work for the Kingdom of Heaven at different times. Some of us since we were very young, others have been called late in life. Still each of us has been called to labour for our King. We will all be paid fairly.

God’s Minimum Wage Matthew 20:1-16 Have you ever wondered if you were getting paid what you are worth? Is the financial reward worth the effort, is it fair and just?

Unity In God’s Family

Contributed by Dr. Jeffrey Dukeman on May 7, 2019

Jesus at Hanukkah distinguishes his work as the new temple from that of the Father. The Father and the Son's working together not only conveys their love and forgiveness to us, it also helps us work together and forgive amidst God's kingdom.

In our country’s history we’ve tended to value what’s been called “rugged individualism.” Each person should strive to work hard and take care of their own responsibilities. This has been a very helpful thing for our country. But this rugged individualism is misunderstood if we see community as a ...read more

"Blessed are you, LORD our God, King of the Universe, for not having made me a slave." “Blessed are you, LORD our God, King of the Universe, for not having made ...read more

God Of Grace And God Of Glory Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

Have you ever been in a relationship with someone and it seemed like you could not please them? That’s somewhat true of God, because if you try on the basis of your own behavior to earn God’s approval or his glory, you’ll miss the target every time.
