    When we talk about good works there are two extremes that must be avoided. Both of them are based on an inaccurate view of who God is.

    Purpose: To show how God's grace motivates us to do right. Aim: I want the listener to treat others selflessly in order to display the gospel. INTRODUCTION: When we talk about good works there are two extremes that must be avoided. Both of them are based on an inaccurate view of who God is. On ...read more

    Christianity never becomes about human effort. We do not move on from grace – we move deeper and deeper into it. The gospel not only ignites us to faith, it fuels our entire journey.

    Dakota Community Church September 25, 2011 Grace Transforms 3 Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. 1.

    It is so easy to "mess up" with money, but the Scriptures give us clear instructions on how to guard our stewardship.

    TRUE RICHES Vs. UNCERTAIN RICHES TEXT: 1 Timothy 6:6-19 W. Max Alderman INTRODUCTION: America has a standard for comparing the relative value of those things that are in the material realm. We use what we refer to as the Gold Standard. For ages people of ...read more

    Epiphany is not just a moment of clarity; it’s a summons to transformation. Let’s walk through this text with open hearts, asking, What does the birth of Jesus teach us about power, greed, and the true call of leadership?

    Sermon Title: The Quest for Power vs. The Call of Christ Text: Matthew 2:1-12 Church, it’s the first Sunday of a brand-new year, and God has a message for us: Pay attention.

    Sometimes the new and improved isn’t - and we become leary. When God came up with a new and improved way to approach Him, some thought the new way was uncomfortable so they wanted to go back.

    There’s no doubt that we as humans like the comfortable and the familiar. Especially when presented with challenges - we like what we know. My dog is like that. She knows that when we are finished exercising on Saturday morning that it’s time for her walk. And at a certain time in the evening - she ...read more

    A Shorter List; 30 Vs 2 Series

    In Romans 12:9-21, Paul gives us an overwhelming list of 30 encouragments. However, they can be slimmed down to just two overarching themes: self-sacrificial love and overcome evil with good. We also see how these things point us to Jesus.

    Our text from Romans this morning is quite challenging. Paul writes to encourage God’s people to live in their in the calling, but his words are overwhelming to us. “Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil. Hold fast to what is good. Love one another…be fervent in spirit…rejoice in hope, be ...read more

    The freedom that Christ brings from legalism (strict adherence to the law) is critical for us to see today. This sermon leads us in answering the question: "How exhausting is it to pretend to be free, but live as a prisoner to other’s rules?"

    Jesus is Lord! Mark 2:1-27 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- He is the ultimate servant; giving Himself clearly for all who will receive -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to ...read more

     | 2,765 views

    This sermon focuses on Jesus' calling of Levi (Matthew) and the legalistic attitudes that people often adopt about who is worthy of God's forgiveness and who is not.

    [Reading Mark 2:13-17] In today’s passage out of the book of Mark, we don’t find Jesus throwing a birthday party for a prostitute, but we do find him hanging out with some unsavory characters called tax collectors and other sinners because that is really what Jesus would do and that is what Jesus ...read more

    The Importance Of Faith Series

     | 5,000 views

    Paul anticipates the Judaizers next objection since they were huge fans of the law of Moses. In general, they recognized the importance of the Abrahamic covenant, but they gave priority to the Mosaic covenant. This led them to emphasize law over faith.

    INTRO: We have seen the interrogation of faith and the illustration of faith and today we’ll see the importance of faith. Next week is the identity of faith. What Paul has been hammering home in Galatians is that we are saved by faith and not by works. This is the distinguishing hallmark of ...read more
